  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

    Flicking through Freeview tv channels, was horrified to see GB News appear. Never been so relieved to have a 'delete' button. Phew !

  • maureenchuck1 IrmaGherd (Retired Nurse Thug)✳💉💉 (@maureenchuck1) reported

    @heyjimmy299 @ABCTV @abcnews I'm now watching through Freeview. I think there must be an issue with iView.

  • AbuAqilah1 Abu Aqilah (@AbuAqilah1) reported

    @Daily_Express Saw that yesterday for the first time as it's suddenly appeared on my Freeview. Good grief it's awful!

  • FourQ #NoWarPlease #StopTheWar 𝔣𝔬𝔲𝔯𝔮 ♿ (@FourQ) reported

    @minxlj It's a channel we never watch. Unless they had F1 on way back, we've only ever tuned in for the rugby since we moved here. Next time I'm downstairs I'll set the Freeview box to record it. Could be the programme that changes it all. 🤔

  • SimonWood2k5 Simon Wood (@SimonWood2k5) reported

    @PhilJonesy3 @MetroUK It's SD on Freeview which doesn't help but not at all good even for SD.

  • ozmanodious Ozmanodious (@ozmanodious) reported

    @sturgess_steve Your missus moaning about the parking too? Changing channels won't help, you need to go to the shed.🤭 Homes under the hammer is more depressing, let me know if you find something good👍 (I only have freeview)

  • WellyGeeNZ Gary Weatherhead 💉x3 (@WellyGeeNZ) reported

    @Suzyiam If you have a modern-ish ‘Freeview’ aerial on your roof then you can get NZ’s free to air Freeview service. 26 TV channels and 2 radio stations (other parts of NZ it may vary, that’s here in Kāpiti). I have a 6yr old TV which gets Freeview fine, plus I use Netflix & Disney apps

  • katy_whitton Katy (@katy_whitton) reported

    Bear in mind that the original Freeview (UK) group was launched back in 2002 so Channel 5 is only 20 or so years late Must have been all of that Public Service stuff they were organising which meant they couldn't join the BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Sky 16/

  • kevinjohnnolan Kevin Nolan 🇮🇪💙🌈 🇺🇦 (@kevinjohnnolan) reported

    @BBCNews Is there a problem with sound on the News Channel on freeview (233) keep hearing voices in background for the past week when presenters are talking #odd #confusing

  • CrissBKreme Baking Bread (@CrissBKreme) reported

    @virginmedia is there a way to negotiate a new contract without being on the phone for 2 hours+? Raising my bill from £45 to £66 automatically when the contract ends is absolutely disgusting for what I receive. Internet that goes down and paying for the same channels as freeview?
