  • Tommy_M_E_J Tom Jordan (@Tommy_M_E_J) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @njvns That’s so shit. It’s literally called freeview and yet it’s not free

  • fishinthedark1 fishinthedark (@fishinthedark1) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

  • niklasRen Nik Rahmel (@niklasRen) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @Stephen_Neal Good shout! If we just take the Freeview/Freesat ones, we get to ten, excluding the National ones: 1) BBC One 2) BBC Two 3) BBC Four 4) CBBC 5) CBeebies 6) BBC News 7) BBC Parliament 8) Dave 9) Drama 10) Yesterday But they aren’t licence fee funded, so don’t help the argument.

  • nessymon Nessy 😷 (@nessymon) reported from London, England

    @MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.

  • vjlorenzato Victoria Lorenzato (@vjlorenzato) reported from Brentford, England

    Catholic Twitter UK- help please! Anyone know of a Mass being broadcast on TV tomorrow ( not via internet) Lovely elderly lady has Freeview but no internet.... TIA!

  • Scare158Steve Scarebear (@Scare158Steve) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @bt_uk Thanks for the help. I spoke to freeview, tried a few things which didn't work but i contacted your TV help and after doing a few basic things somehow it appears to be working now! Very Strange. Tks

  • AStrangerJ A.j. Stranger #UTAG (@AStrangerJ) reported from Bromley, England

    On the Freeview “REALLY” channel at 9pm, “Who Killed Jeffery Epstein?”. I’ve never seen it before, but I bet the answers not Jeffrey Epstein.

  • JEFFREY03296741 JEFFREY PHILLIPS (@JEFFREY03296741) reported from Brentford, England

    @TalkingPicsTV Hello. Watching at about 4.35 pm on Monday 24th the Sky TV picture was completely lost from your channel and went off air. All other channels were fine. Also okay on Freeview but I missed the end of the film. At 4.48 pm it is still without a, signal. What's up?

  • crazycol Colin Wiseman (@crazycol) reported from Ealing, England

    @stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.

  • coulson3000 Hank Moody (@coulson3000) reported from Kensington, England

    I will never have normal freeview tv

  • MartinC93414706 Martin (@MartinC93414706) reported from Lambeth, England

    @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

  • EranE1980 Eran Edry (@EranE1980) reported from Camden Town, England

    @FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

  • daguvernor tommy harper (@daguvernor) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia once again trying to contact virgin media is a no go a proper waste of time contract has run out trying to cancel they have put the money up to £60 a month for basically 2 freeview boxes I have cancelled my direct debit which is due on the 7 april what a scam😡

  • 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?

  • RegenerateAndy Andy Smith (@RegenerateAndy) reported from Wandsworth, England

    Channel ‘Pick’ on freeview. Never heard of it before but grateful for it tonight #chelsea

  • JensFallesen Jens Fallesen (@JensFallesen) reported from Hounslow, England

    @leksi_p Correct. If you do not have Freeview, Sky or Virgin (or any other cable service), you should not need to pay if you never watch it.

  • shoxtl2 Carl (@shoxtl2) reported from Croydon, England

    @MyHydeHome @SCCIAlphatrack Not even sure how that's possible there's no record anyways over the weekend we lost signal for the communal aerial it has become very weak very pixelated can pick up the Freeview HD channels

  • maggieinlondon Maggie - wear a mask 💙🏳️‍🌈🌱 (@maggieinlondon) reported from Wandsworth, England

    With all this wall to wall coverage crap of a dead man by @skynews and @bbcnews Netflix and Freeview's viewing figures must be the highest they've ever been.

Freeview Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Atkins_Sam Sam Atkins (@Atkins_Sam) reported

    @Chris_Ince The issue is they can only have 2 streams at any one time as part of their licensing deal. So better to have it on Red Button at all times than fill 2 main channels where other shows would usually be on. % without access to Freeview for red button channel is surely very small?

  • MusicSparrow Tracy (@MusicSparrow) reported

    @BBCSport Why are there not more channels available on the BBC to watch the Olympics? Freeview channel 601 isn't even available in HD. It's very poor already.

  • AliceP104 Alice Pennington💙 (@AliceP104) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi, I’m struggling to get a consistent signal when watching BBC One and BBC Two on my Freeview box. I even retuned my box and changed regions and that hasn’t solved the problem. Could you please look into if BBC transmitters are experiencing issues? Thank you.

  • OGBCollins Owen Collins (@OGBCollins) reported

    @bobbysparkles Damn it, I've only got Freeview! Thanks though!

  • Survivingin2020 Surviving2021 (@Survivingin2020) reported

    Anyone wanting the hockey its on sky channel BBC RB HD 981 or BBC RB on Freeview 601 sd crap picture #BBCOlympics

  • FrancineFishpa4 Francine Fishpaw (@FrancineFishpa4) reported

    @ToryRambo @GBNEWS Most signal issues on any Freeview channel are due to the Transmitters and also weather. None of this can be fixed by @GBNEWS or any TV or Radio channel.

  • LwtEmmaBird Sarah Harbour (@LwtEmmaBird) reported

    The Freeview signal is also not helping out with the BBC Olympics coverage right now... over the Discovery+ again...

  • D__2__1 DANIEL (@D__2__1) reported

    Aside, imho the effort here to give them their own show vs. Doing the same for the (much larger) Asian populations implicitly shows whites (+other groups) don't think they are capable without help (contra the scores of Asian channels on freeview).

  • pwb413 Astro Boy (@pwb413) reported

    @DuncanUK45 Let's not forget the free crowd booster tickets! The 100 will only attract "locals" who are close to the preferred Test Match quality grounds. Remote County supporters have little interest in travelling to this watered down T20 series - like me watch on Sky or occasional Freeview

  • BigTonyReed Tony Reed Bruntwood (@BigTonyReed) reported

    2 days lost so far waiting for @bt_uk to turn up for an appointment to fix phone and broadband. 10 days with no service and different excuses each time. It's the hope that does you :) never thought I would be thankful for freeview.
