  • RockcliffeFiles Rockcliffe Files (@RockcliffeFiles) reported from Werrington, England

    Warning, stupid question incoming, does a Freeview tele just simply plug into an old skool aerial?? My mum wants a new TV but doesn’t have cable. I’m assuming so? I’ve had cable since the early 90s so haven’t had to faff on with aerials for 30 odd years !!!

  • DavidSwindells1 David Swindells (@DavidSwindells1) reported from Macclesfield, England

    Hope we don't get this warm weather very often.#freeview doesn't work because of the high atmospheric pressure apparently. How am I going to watch #loveisland

  • JoyAnneGarner Joy Garner (@JoyAnneGarner) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Anyone else having issues with Freeview etc today? ST6 area ?

  • kirstxxiv kirstylouise (@kirstxxiv) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Imagine how much of a Christmas miracle it would be if BBC3 came back to freeview number 7. I can picture it now, Gavin & Stacey returns and BBC3 makes a comeback. 25/12/19 would go down in history.

  • Crewedaddy Richard Seamon (@Crewedaddy) reported from Crewe, England

    @james_blue_cat Can't afford any streaming service or the hardware upgrade to accommodate one. Freeview and iPlayer is enough. Didn't switch telly on Xmas day and Bob and Paul going fishing was my highlight.

  • minxsterev helen kirk (@minxsterev) reported from Crewe, England

    @curryspcworld Just been into your Crewe store looking for a freeview box. 5 staff members fiddling with displays, me the only customer. Not one member of staff came to see if I needed help. Going elsewhere as you obvs don't need my custom.

  • MattGunner32 Matt Gunner (@MattGunner32) reported

    @JVCSmartHome I have a LT-40CF890. TV is only operating via the apps and Wifi. Press any of the channel numbers and it comes up, but screen is blank and no sound. If I press Live TV button, it just shows Freeview and buffering. Tried unplugging TV but problem persists.

    @ignorami @LeeAndersonMP_ @lucyfrazermp UTTER CRAP!!! If you watch ITV you have to pay it. If you watch Chanel 4, 5, or any of the other 100's of freeview channels, you have to pay it. If you watch Sky you have to pay it. Educate yourself.

  • FrannyJeffers72 FJ72 🇬🇧 (@FrannyJeffers72) reported

    @ramsay_wmramsay @MattSTKS @CraigMurrayOrg I would prefer it was on Sky or freeview TV. The issue here is with UEFA and the SFA as they are in charge of the TV rights. The UK or Scottish Government have no control over it.

  • Ali_le_zebre Ali Z (@Ali_le_zebre) reported

    @TalkTV High people at Talktv Are you aware that you've been taken down on Amazon Prime, Amazon Fire Stick, internet, and YouTube. Don't know who you've upset, but the only TalkTV channel that's currently working is 522 on SKY, and Freeview. You need to sort this out guys.

  • damoxl Damo (@damoxl) reported

    @Mark_P0x0n @LucyMPowell But I might want to watch something on freeview that requires adverts & a properly costed budget to fund (not BBC) So why should I pay for the BBC when their model is at best a tax on live TV of any sort? This is where the BBC falls down in the modern era, it's simply outdated

  • ZH956 TTNeb (@ZH956) reported

    Sat down with my tea to watch #Unforgotten Freeview box let me down. Recording failed 😭 Now have choice to watch on phone via @ITVX as can't link it to tv or wait for laptop to be repaired & watch it on that in a few days. #Gutted
