  • XtopherCalvert Christmas Calvert (he/him) (@XtopherCalvert) reported from Poplar, England

    Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?

  • PlexNetflix Martin Phillp 🔶 (@PlexNetflix) reported from Camberwell, England

    My broadband has gone down, so stuck watching QVC on Freeview.

    @channel5_tv is the worst for catch up tv via your app or freeview. Just can’t find programmes sometimes. Trying to find Sally Lindsays posh sleepover. C4, itv and BBC never ever have a problem with. I give up with C5

  • lofty2401 🌻 David 🌻 (@lofty2401) reported

    @DuncanLindsay @MrDavidEBrown @MetroUK An hours news??? Not necessary bearing in mind the BBC news is 24 hours as is Sky news, both on Freeview. I’m sorry but this is bad scheduling.

  • doctorgreyboots Graham Taylor (@doctorgreyboots) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi we have had no freeview signal at all for about a week now. YO31 area of York, served by Bilsdale. Freeview status page for my postcode says there are outages in my area but I can't find any more information. Help!

  • PeterTWolf1 Matt Meerkat (@PeterTWolf1) reported

    @rugrats1991 @YuseiFudoGam3r @HudsonHatley I never had the Nickelodeon channel because my dad wouldn't pay for sky, we only had freeview so only channels like CBBC, CITV and Pop. Non of the fancies like Nick or Cartoon N'work.

  • Takethatjoe Gerald Smith 🤢 (@Takethatjoe) reported

    @Ange_9_ @darrengrimes_ So you think advertising is going to raise an extra £3.7 billion? The BBC share maintenance of freeview, freeview is the biggest digital platform and you casually say they’ll go subscription, not everyone has a fast reliable broadband service and you’re assuming millions

  • garyscott8383 Gary Scott (@garyscott8383) reported

    @Lakeuk @timfarron The company dvtv that administrates the UK Freeview network is owned by the BBC.... They choose not to give us the full offering ( that we pay for all the same) so we pay for less service (Tim knows this it was his own campaign when Freeview first came out) we also can't get dab

  • PCarmichaelVO Paul Carmichael (@PCarmichaelVO) reported

    @d0hertyry4n @TomRafferty4 Yes, sure. Because you’re incapable of answering anything on the subject. You’re not coming at it from a position of knowledge. I mean everyone in the industry acknowledges the Freeview problem doesn’t have a solution. That’s a given. Or can you solve what the experts can’t?

  • FreeviewTV Freeview (@FreeviewTV) reported

    @SimonAnthonySt2 @NewsUK Hi Simon. There is no news as to when this service will be added to Freeview. It may be best to contact NewsUK for this information. Scott.

  • Whoknow01623687 Who knows 🗣 (@Whoknow01623687) reported

    @WonPeople Nothing you can’t watch a repeat of on any other freeview channel. Never listen to any BBC radio either.
