    @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

    @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.

    @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

    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.

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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?

  • 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.

    Now I have the truly truly shit @EE freeview package (literally the worst selection of channels on earth but boy is it cheap broadband) I only watch the main 5 channels or SVOD. W, Dave, ITV2 etc are dead to me

    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.

    @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

    @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?

    @MarinaHyde I can’t believe this happened. Horrendous for those people involved but as a bystander it’s like a terrible plot for a mini series you see on the Freeview ‘drama’ channels. Absolute madness.

    David Oxendale M7OXY (@intouchwithox) reported

    @transdiffusion I was there. With the red square of signal death. What a great team we had at Ondigital. It's a pity it was doomed to fail from the outset - but every time I use Freeview, I'm glad we did what we did to make DVB happen.

    @LizahatesTories They said they could offer more for the same money but wouldn’t/couldn’t bring the price down. We’ve all got data on our phone so the other option would be freeview but it’s so limited. Mustn’t grumble if we want the tv and broadband.

    Darren (@DazzaField) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi, thank you for your reply. We actually had to cancel our sky TV Subscription because it became too unaffordable, we were using the box for freeview. Would we still be able to get a technician down without an active subscription?

    How do I watch @amirkingkhan fight if on freeview & don't want to go laddish pub? What time is it too bc I can't do those 3am fights..?? I used to support him on itv but all this #boxing on #paytoview then King Khan KOs him in 1st round it's a waste of time and money 🥴💯👑🥊🤴🏽💙

    @MSE_Deals @MoneySavingExp We are about to cancel Sky or at least have a conversation with them to try and reduce the outgoing. We have Disney for the kids and Netflix, one of them will be going. Wondering if FreeView & a Firestick would be better?

    @FreeviewAdvice Morning. I’ve had no Freeview signal now for 12 hours. No iPlayer or any TV apps are working too. Any ideas?
