    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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

    @BigJohnnyArcher Didn't LG say that on the 2020 line they had an issue arranging the license agreement with Freeview Play and that they would be adding Freeview Play once they can arrange agreement at a later date ?

  • Davidp1103 Davidp (@Davidp1103) reported from Snodland, England

    Continually frustrated by @TalkTalk and its inconsistent service and performance. Have today purchased a freeview recorder to replace their box and will be actively looking for new broadband provider.

  • NikkiDiddams Nikki Diddams 💙 (@NikkiDiddams) reported

    @FreeviewTV having major signal problems all day today, either no signal at all or scrabbled signal on all channels. Did a retune & now only have 35 channels. What’s going on Freeview this a terrible service

  • StapesinelliR9 Stapesy Martinelli (@StapesinelliR9) reported

    @SkipperAFC I had a pal who did the usual cancel and wait for them to call him back with the good offer, but they never called him and now he has to watch freeview like he’s an inmate

  • IsobelMKeane Isobel Ní Chatháin 🇮🇪 (@IsobelMKeane) reported

    @utdfox We didn't have Sky and it was never shown on the Freeview channels. I did watch the Pokemon DPPT animes, Bakugan, Beyblade, Tokyo Mew Mew and Digimon Data Squad though.

  • BigJohnnyArcher John Archer (@BigJohnnyArcher) reported

    Good news for Brits thinking of buying a 2021 LG TV: after disappearing in 2020, Freeview Play support is back on all of LG’s new webOS TVs.

  • thematabot Matt (@thematabot) reported

    @LankyCarGuy Who cares if it's on freeview **** paying hundred a month for television

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

    ITV is to close its SD service in the West Country for viewers with Sky or Freesat. West Country regional news will only be available in HD. There are no changes on Freeview or Virgin Media.

  • ronniet240 Ronnie 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 should🚶🏻‍♂️🚶🏻‍♂️🇬🇧 (@ronniet240) reported

    I’m looking to see what original programs are on TV as it’s Saturday and what do we have on all these FreeView channels well let’s just forget BBC as it’s same-old-same-old. BBC2 1980 T/Pops? Any & Dec same old format you can bet on it! Then The New Voice old format..Crap!!

  • martincasson Martin Casson (@martincasson) reported

    @OldRoberts953 We very rarely watch BBC programmes- not much to interest us. It’s normally other freeview channels or at a stretch a subscription service.
