    @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.

    Does anyone know if @GBNEWS will be available through Sky Q? Or will I need to flip the TV to freeview (which I never do normally) to watch it?

  • WatsonJKnights Watson J.Knights (@WatsonJKnights) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice No freeview signal in Surrey. Well I say none there is a smattering of channels that have badly broken up pictures that could be classed as art.

  • quinn_rori ÉimíQuinn (@quinn_rori) reported

    So after 6 years I thought I'd come back to #skytv only to find out there are more access to channels on #freeview wow what a let down. Paying this package cost every month is gonna be a bitter blow. #scam

  • VirtuaMcPolygon Rob Farmer (@VirtuaMcPolygon) reported

    @tomhfh Is it going to be a proper channel on freeview or one of those terrible internet streaming channels ?

  • mikes1988 Michael Edwards (@mikes1988) reported

    @ppdoddy I do vaguely remember 5 being turned on. I was probably 9! We didn't get a great signal from Black Mountain (lived at Merville at the time), so it was a bit noisy compared to the Divis transmitter. Freeview sorted that out.

  • hischeekiness CheekyMcB (@hischeekiness) reported

    @Mark56623345 @a516digital The OFCOM EPG rules brought in in January this year mean PSB channels have to be in the Top 24 EPG slots at least, so 124 is the absolute lowest for Sky BBC3 broadcast return. The rules coming in were why all the Freeview channels shuffled down 1 for BBC4 getting 24 in Scotland.

  • robinjuste Robin Juste Emery (@robinjuste) reported

    @jameswaters I still use one of those to spit the output of our antenna to two rooms. Thankfully we have a strong enough signal from Bluebell Hill to maintain a stable Freeview signal.

  • tran_d87 David Tran (@tran_d87) reported

    @bt_uk Freeview weren’t able to sort out my problem. They are asking if there is a way of manually retuning rather than automatically retuning the channels? Is there a way to do this?
