    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.

  • 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.

    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

    @Forces_TV @MakingBlakes7 @GerryAndersonTV If only I could get your channel on freeview in our neighbourhood 😥. Your signal hamsters need to spin their wheels a bit harder!

    @joti261 @Nigel_Farage @GBNEWS Typical idiot Remoaner, you must have found a way to cancel your Freeview then because it's on there too.

  • simonphoward Simon Howard (@simonphoward) reported

    @bt_uk I know, but why would I pay you for Freeview Channels! Hard bundling TV with Broadband to get me to sign for 2 more years. BT broadband is poor & my area is just getting new providers with Fibre to the house. This feels like anticompetitive practice using your TV @CMAgovUK

  • Gary1609 Gary (@Gary1609) reported

    @gemandmoll @Bbmorg Which is great for you. So maybe you should be paying through subscription allowing those of us who do not watch their services the right to watch other freeview channels without paying for a service we do not want.

    @MarkandDrama The moment that the BBC loses the central funding from the LF is when I predict that Freeview and Freesat are doomed to death*. Yet these idiots don't seem to realise that the UK's main PSB is the core to the "free" stuff they guzzell down. *I'd give it five years.

    @mwnciod @Greyhound_One Check the Freeview site. It could be your decoder. That was my problem as it turned out.

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital If com7 is being removed, it can,t be far off round here. Might be wrong, these might be three network! Who are using 900mhz. What I have found out from alot at work and where my parents live is freeview is very weak at the moment,

  • StephenOld Stephen Old #HerewardTheWoke#BarnHelm#SAFC#EFBPE (@StephenOld) reported

    @jssnowden @rudadu57 No, I think it is on one of the Freeview channels but I have never switched it on.

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital Unfortunately my parents are now unable to receive freeview, they watch sky/Freesat, after the wind blew down the, aerial.

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital Most who I know have got sky and or freesat so makes no difference, but those who do watch freeview have problems with Forces TV, BBC4 HD, etc, the Great TV! Channels are all pixelated, and ITV ch4 and ch5 keeps popping and squeaking on the sound.
