    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.

    @skindeep1956 @TheNorthernEcho Absolutely agree with you, I've phoned Freeview, TV Licence, even Arqiva, & just constantly getting fobbed off by people who don't have a clue. 8 weeks now with no TV services at all! Bilsdale mast fire caused by overloading a 52 year old transmitter & poor maintenance!

  • PATVOne1 P.A.T.V. Scunthorpe (@PATVOne1) reported

    @Markylad29 @boxhits @4Music Unfortunately for now it isn’t permanent, just a back up as 4Music is still off air following issues at Red Bee Media… but you never know, Box Plus may see the interest in having a second channel on Freeview

  • naughtysaintni1 naughtysaintnick (@naughtysaintni1) reported

    @dan63uk Some places don’t have the signal to get all of the freeview channels. When I used to stay in some places in Wales you’d be lucky to get 20 channels, depending where area.

  • CaptainBurgers Big captain (@CaptainBurgers) reported

    Really disappointed in Freeview just spent 45 minutes tuning the box to find that it’s broken! When I click on the BBC section I’m greeted with old people baking not young strapping black men with large dongs like on my iPad #BBC

    @ChwisSweed I keep saying this.. 40 + yrs hard graft. 62 & Now health issues.. on basic UC. On my own. Bills to pay. Old car to run. Very basic cheap phone. Basic net and freeview. Food bank as and when. That £20 is diff between heating on or not..not everyone on uc is a sponger..

  • JStewart_15 Josh Stewart (@JStewart_15) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam does sky glass have an Ariel port so if WiFi went down we could still watch freeview?

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    /2 uniquely in the UK, the East Mids transmitter at Waltham is being fed with the (broken) online streams. This first occured last week. All other Freeview transmitters have different source feeds that are not affected.

  • drebee88 Dre ® (@drebee88) reported

    Anyone else's free view just now showing signal. Or is it just mine. #freeview

  • steeleyp_ PS (@steeleyp_) reported

    @AndrewGrill @skytv Only a game-changer if you never plan to cancel Sky. Freeview not included outside the PSBs, no aerial socket for DTT and forever locked into a Sky OS... great fun if you choose to cancel Sky TV. No third-party services/apps other than what Sky say you can have. No thanks.

    @MoneySavingExp Switched from virgin TV to freeview years ago and never regretted it.
