  • 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.

    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.

  • JoyAnneGarner Joy Garner (@JoyAnneGarner) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Anyone else having issues with Freeview etc today? ST6 area ?

  • 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

    @ImmuneNaturally @LozzaFox @TalkTV Yup its **** on freeview atm

  • MarkLeicester7 MarkLeicester (@MarkLeicester7) reported

    @cjayanetti @CarefulTweeter Not sure about that. I have never sat down one evening to go online & watch it, but if it was on Freeview and there was nothing else on then I might channel hop onto it for a bit. It's niche, but unlike the right with their countless options, there's not much else similar.

  • UKTVPlay UKTV Play (@UKTVPlay) reported

    @1974craig17 @UKTV @BBCBargainHunt Hi Craig, unfortunately some Freeview Play devices are still impacted by an issue we're experiencing around playback. We are really sorry for the inconvenience caused and are working on fixing this ASAP

  • ImmuneNaturally John Kelley (@ImmuneNaturally) reported

    @LozzaFox @TalkTV For us TalkTV on freeview has become unwatchable the signal strength appears to much weaker this last week just enough for it be there but blocky with constant audio interruption as such unwatchable. They did the same thing to RT before banning it outright. All other channels ok.

  • PiesMcQ Pies McQ (@PiesMcQ) reported

    @russty_russ when it came to an end, there were 5 mainstream channels, there was no freeview, no netflix, no streaming at all, to split the audience share- and sky was still crap. it was crap, and far outlived its natural life good riddance, pity it didn't end Noel Edmonds' career as well.

  • fatch_phil Fatch 💙 🇮🇪 🇮🇲 🇬🇧 (@fatch_phil) reported

    Freeview TV is so **** I have resorted to watching #longlostfamily Same theme every programme so nothing new to see. Switch on radio. Licence fee money is spent on sport throughout the summer.

  • KiaStarmer Kia Starmer GT 🇬🇧🇺🇦 🕖 (@KiaStarmer) reported

    @Leon_C @gerry_berry I'm really not sure about the direction @BritishAlba's social media team have gone in though. They should stick to what they know - cheap tellies with crap freeview tuners.

  • PaulCarmichaelV Paul Carmichael (@PaulCarmichaelV) reported

    @RussPurdie @DefundBBC If the BBC is defunded how do we replace the excellent educational resources it provides to every school and college? How do we maintain the Freeview network which enables the elderly and poor to access free television? How do we replace the Disability Programmes Unit (1/2)

    @ipa1869 Hi, I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Freeview Reception. So, we can investigate this for you, can you please DM us your postcode and house name or number? Thanks, Dylan

    Any news on when BBC4/CBeebies HD will return to Freeview? Seems odd to have such a problem at last minute given the space for another HD channel has theoretically been on the mux for over a year and Arqiva are forever squeezing in extra channels to their SD muxes.
