    @FreeviewAdvice Well, after waiting 2 weeks for a Freeview engineer we are told we need a new aerial. Also, they can’t help us because we have Sky! So they change Winter Hill and now we have to pay. Why didn’t they say this 3 weeks ago...😳

  • mooseandme1 Moose And Me (@mooseandme1) reported from Great Harwood, England

    @Ossyref I know but it’s not on Freeview. Not everyone has YouTube for TV or ability to watch on app. We ok as have Virgin but it’s still crap they ain’t showing it for others.

    Has anyone else got the Apple TV. Connection for their TV? It’s a nightmare and the worst possible way to watch TV. EE have given up their excellent system so I has no choice. Talk about long winded routes to watch. Mostly we have gone back to Freeview in the TV.

    @ClarNiUigin I wasn't sure how it worked on a free freeview box so was hoping it was a simple solution for you! Sometimes just a quick look can find these things. Glad it worked out

  • petehplas1 Peter Ron Houghton (@petehplas1) reported

    @russty_russ Not great, really,was it?Like a bad Freeview channel now,but expectations were lower.

  • Big_Tim47 BigTim47 (@Big_Tim47) reported

    @S66Cams @leximaecarter If only we could have Lexi on for just part of the night! Stayed up to stupid o’clock to discover she’s ON FREEVIEW for HOURS not appearing in Sky at all!! We pay a frigging SKY subscription! Feel ripped off after signing up today! Is this a piss take?!

  • Northma75852728 Northman (@Northma75852728) reported

    @GBNEWS Possibly a stupid qustion but will that channel number be same on freesat as it is on freeview?

  • ARants88 Human. (@ARants88) reported

    @CatharineHoey @GBNEWS Its broadcast on a signal that is airborn. You dont need a subscription or license to openly receive a freely broadcast signal on devices openly sold with the ability to receive it, otherwise you'd have to pay the annual fee when you buy a tv and freeview wouldnt be built in.

  • Cartoonist_Rob Rob The Cartoonist (@Cartoonist_Rob) reported

    @Philips Hi! As of this afternoon, Freeview Play and associated Apps have started working again. A reply from FVP also states they have had an issue. Hopefully all fixed now. Thanks for your help.

  • InspectorMorose Inspector Morose 小麦 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇭🇰🇨🇳 (@InspectorMorose) reported

    @hhSonja I did a similar thing 10 years ago, when I bought my current house. I’ve since never missed any of Murdoch’s channels. Back then I just had the UK’s Freeview service, but later added Amazon Prime and Netflix.

  • JSDMN87 Jen (@JSDMN87) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam since the update the smart box (the freeview version) is really slow and can’t watch tv from the TV guide, have to go into the nowtv bit. Is this issue going to be resolved? Some shows are glitching too. My broadband is working perfectly. #nowtv
