  • 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.

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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.

    @a516digital When I tried the TV, nothing, it was worst than before, when freeview contacted me, I told them its worst than before, and wanted to know who contacted them. They hung up. I know about the issues, I have a contractor who lives opposite,

  • AnkerSchiff Anker Schiff (@AnkerSchiff) reported

    @TogetherukTV All, also Big Dreams Small Spaces with Monty Don. Are you still showing it? Also please fix info on Freeview, I try to watch or record your programs, and it's not shown correctly especially at night. Is there a catch up or online way to watch?

  • fab4records ⱤØ₵₭₵ⱧɆ₣💉X1 (@fab4records) reported

    @GBNEWS @Nanaakua1 Excellent. I nipped over to Freeview 236 yesterday & sure enough, I had to re-tune the telly! Once I'd done that I could see the GB News test signal screen ready & waiting. 👍

  • KennyandHattie Terry Williams (@KennyandHattie) reported

    @GBNEWS Just retuned. Doesn't show on @FreeviewTV in Copeland, Cumbria. TBH we generally have crap coverage from Freeview here..

  • ItsYouDanDanwba Daniel (@ItsYouDanDanwba) reported

    Everything is My ******* fault Internet not installed properly my fault Cant get freeview on tv - my fault Talk to me like I'm a piece of **** - my fault I cbfa 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    That's relevant to viewers who have compatibility issues with these channels. HbbTV is mandated for all Freeview Play devices, whereas MHEG is now hit-and-miss.

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital After freeview sent harry hill round to sort out my reception issue, I'm not going into again, I spent best part of £250 on an aerial to try and get proper local reception which doesnt work.

  • Survivingin2020 Surviving2021 (@Survivingin2020) reported

    @NOWMusic Thank god its only for a short time, my sky dish won't pick up Now80's, its on one of the dodgy low frequencies, really going to miss it until its back on Freeview, you need to fix that sky frequency.

  • junwinator Junwinator (@junwinator) reported

    @LGUKCare Bought a 2020 LG TV a few weeks ago and I've just realised that Freeview Play and All4 apps are missing and cannot be downloaded. Can you help me to rectify this? Is a software update required?

  • MarkBentley1966 Mark Bentley (@MarkBentley1966) reported

    @BooOMeringue @BumblingD I live very near to this house. Internet here is very poor. 8mb at ours. No Freeview signal to speak of either, plus we don't even have mains gas. There are many other benefits though.
