    @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...😳

    @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.

  • JehnnyDangerou1 Jehnny Dangerously (@JehnnyDangerou1) reported

    @scotland_ewan @MrFlibble72LFC I never watch the Morning shows & I’ve almost completely stopped watching the news now too. I think I’ve seen all of Freeview’s arsenal at least x10 times over each. I will have to get Sky 🙄

  • BaikieRachel Rachel Honeyman Baikie (@BaikieRachel) reported

    @TalkTalk please reply to my private message. I’m NOT paying a £172 exit fee when I’ve only got talk talk set up on 23rd June & the service has been shocking! No freeview channels found, internet so slow that I can’t even watch Netflix without it freezing every couple of minutes

  • brenmclarke Brendan Clarke (@brenmclarke) reported

    I’ve just tuned in to @GBNEWS for the first time since it’s opening night to see why it’s trending. Watching on Freeview Ch 236 and they’ve still got sound problems. Not only is it too quiet there’s a lip synch issue. I’m surprised they’ve not sorted these teething problems.

  • LeonSymnz Leo (@LeonSymnz) reported

    @toobbroadband All the clowns complaining they can't watch it... Either watch it on Freeview/sky/VM or on your phone/tether. Stop making such a ******* fuss you clowns That said, communication would have been nice. Any ETA? Or info on the issue?

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @amg1968 I'm sorry you're experiencing problems with Freeview reception. I have checked the DMs and can see this has been an ongoing problem due to variable reception in your area. Thanks, C

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital And I've just checked up, what a surprise vision + is no longer available. I think there was 40 paid for channels. Can,t remember exactly because I never used it. Due to the problems with freeview.

  • TechnoDeviant TechnoDeviant (@TechnoDeviant) reported

    @appleinsider It was on freeview tv and on the free terrestrial ITV channel found on all TV’s in the UK so there was no need to watch via Apple TV or itv hub online or any other streaming service. Not sure why this is an issue just an inconvenience

  • RealSaxondale Duke Silver (@RealSaxondale) reported

    @a516digital Trying to work out what this means for people with **** Freeview (Freeview-lite due to repeater masts) and **** Freesat ( no Ch4 HD).
