    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.

    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.

  • jdwigglesworth Daniel Wigglesworth (@jdwigglesworth) reported

    Freeview channel 53 crashed the smart tv. Google said unplug, and then said reflow the motherboard in oven 🔥. Managed to solve it by pressing lots of buttons all at once whilst holding down the power button onto AV menu🍺

  • stephen_parish Stephen Parish (@stephen_parish) reported

    @BBCNewsEnts Why not do things the other way around? Give Netflix a broadcast platform on Freeview and a Sky Digital subscription channel? This would help to fund traditional terrestrial and satellite broadcasting.

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital Ive reached the conclusion now, that reception in my location is poor, along with about 62 others. Dispite scripted advice from freeview. No it does not work. My parents live about a mile from me, they can get, oxford, sandy heath, crystal palace

    @TVgroup_UK Hi, yesterday I had a KG55K2020UK delivered. After spending a long time tuning/setting it up, I have some channels showing as ‘data only’. Eg. Ch271 - Channelbox. Why am I unable to use this basic Freeview service on a brand new tv? (Aerial & Internet both connected).

    @tvliveforum @DylanDylan1909 @Ident_Circle The font was also used for their daily Milkshake! and Shake! strands. Viacom seem to have leased the Shake! brand for Channel 10 in Australia for 10Shake!, a channel mostly showing various Nickelodeon and MTV series on their Freeview service.

    @MamaMoose_Be I couldn't get the free trial last time I tried coz I am an ex Sky Digital customer. So they can do one! Get plenty to watch for free with Freeview & on apps with Amazon Firestick

  • Arcane_Asylum Dragontao (@Arcane_Asylum) reported

    @DefundBBC Freeview is one of the worst misnomers in existence. Not bloody free is it. You have to pay more to watch most of it than you do any of the streaming services.

  • DJEmz1990 JigglyEmz (@DJEmz1990) reported

    so until i can afford the upfront fees im pretty much stuck with virgin, but Sky have offered me ok speeds i think it did include basic freeview style tv which i wont use and phone but it has a 3 year price fix and is only a third of what im paying now

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital As to freeview, better off talking to harry hill, they know absolute nothing about the problem i had. 4 times ive had this looked at now, because freeview passed my details on.
