    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

  • 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.

    Anyone having issues with BBC channels on Freesat channels? Ok on my Freeview. Checked cables and sat dish, but all seems fine. All other channels are fine, just BBC pixelating? SW Scotland here.

    @soph_letitia It’s on FreeSports not Premier, you can watch it online or on FreeView if you can get it on your TV down there

    @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?

    @InspireAndStyle @FreeviewAdvice Hi Karen, I had the same problem and I done a software update on my TV and reset the TV to default again after the update and it worked. You may also need to update the freeview app from your TV store (android play store) or LG store for example.

    @TalkingPicsTV @UKChristmasTV I wish it would come to Freeview Play as that would be cool of me sitting down to watch repeats of Budgie after the news on a Saturday night which would be every goodie’s treat

  • curlyjimsam Jim the Jim (@curlyjimsam) reported

    @RealFloppyLion we were never able to pick up Channel Five on terrestrial, so we had four channels right up until we got Freeview

  • pipmadeley Pip (@pipmadeley) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Thanks but I've already tried that direct on the Freeview website. Says it's available in my area but clearly isn't. I also lost BBC Four HD and BBC News HD a couple of months ago. Aerial strength is 100% for other channels so no problems there. Pity.

  • 100voicess Lauren Towers (@100voicess) reported

    @virginmedia All checked no issues that I can find...far worse if I'm trying to watch channels not on freeview

  • Outside_Margina Outside The Marginals (@Outside_Margina) reported

    How many channels does #C4 have on Freeview? Why can't they run their flagship news program (part of their Public Service) on time on the flagship channel? #c4news
