  • 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.

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

    @virginmedia hey, quick question, if i cancel my contract do i still get to keep the virgin box? And would i still be able to watch freeview channels through it? Thanks.

  • LumpyPete Lumpy Pete (@LumpyPete) reported

    @BBCThree One word. Shallow. Pandering to 'yoof' never works. To think 3 used to have great science and factual shows. Now look. And cramming it back on has messed up my freeview big time, so thanks for that BBC, never seem to get it right these days. #bbc3

  • Heraldofcreatio Herald of Creation (@Heraldofcreatio) reported

    @Forces_TV What can you do if you have retuned your freeview and Forces TV does not show up on Channel 96. Has my wife used her mysterious mind powers to prevent the signal from entering our abode?

  • FplAndSte Fpl&Ste (@FplAndSte) reported

    @FPL_CHEF We are with @virginmedia they want to put it up to over £65p/m for Internet and basic freeview channels. I have ordered a 5G hub from 3 I think £21p/m and will obviously just get a dodgy box to go with it which would allow me to cancel nowtv sky sports etc

  • BameWiltshire BAME in Wiltshire (@BameWiltshire) reported

    @NHSuk @bbchealth People should not have to 'Search, better health NHS' on Freeview. The BBC should provide a 24 hour channel especially for people with poor access to the Internet & who work long hours. The UK could have uniform, consistent, upto date, World standard information

  • PostDocHV Dr Michael Fanner (@PostDocHV) reported

    @Philips I bought a 50PUS7556/12 50inch 4K UHD LED SMART TV WiFi Dolby Atmos Freeview HD in December (registered it with you) & since the beginning, the TV does not do anything when pressing the remote (but the red light flashes per push) for up to 3/4 minutes. Please can u help?

  • tashatam14 tashatam (@tashatam14) reported

    @BorisJohnson People in rural Devon mid have stone-age broadband, trickle water supplies, no mains sewage, no mobile signal, no freeview signal, no public transport, but plenty of potholes and powercuts. And you want to provide football pitches with taxpayer money?

  • Page_888 Matthew H (@Page_888) reported

    I'd be surprised if a new weekly TV magazine launched. Although I guess it's possible, maybe one just providing listings for Freeview? Of course, not only would this depend on gaining readers, pricing would also be an issue.

  • mecafolidas Mark Foley (@mecafolidas) reported

    @RupertLowe10 Are you thick or just determined to keep on spreading BS? It's impossible under for the BBC to become a subscription service because you CAN'T charge under subscriptions via Freeview - which is how most access TV. Any change would be a Tax to support local radio & TV Advertising

  • CheungSulty Sulty Cheung (@CheungSulty) reported

    @FreeviewTV Hi George, can't find DM (direct email) on freeview website help & support. For my postcode said that there is works in area. Returned now but smart TV is still no and freeview box is OK.
