  • AddingRandomWit Adam Widdrington (@AddingRandomWit) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @bigpapablu @itvfootball I don’t have a sky or freeview box! I stream everything and have very good internet so it’s never an issue haha

  • JonnyRoLi JR (@JonnyRoLi) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

    @ITVX I wish I could or that Freeview took on this network a lot of us on pensions can't afford satalite or cable

  • GerryCarpenter3 Gerry Carpenter (@GerryCarpenter3) reported from Sunderland, England

    @Claire_Pickard @sueashton3000 Many residents in Sunderland & along the Durham Coast also receive Freeview Channels from the Bilsdale transmitter. The fire is also likely to have knocked out about 30 relay stations, which "feed" on signals from Bilsdale. I wouldn't like to climb up the transmitter to fix it!

    @UKTVPlay I seem to have narrowed down the problem of series links not moving onto the next episode. It's only when I dial up a program from the Freeview play listings If I watch an episode direct on the app it plays the next episode just fine. #freeviewPlay error.

  • OnnaLoves Juliana (@OnnaLoves) reported

    I accidentally scheduled a post to go out and forgot to put a ticket price on it. It got 264 views, 54 watches, 4 likes, and absolutely no-one tipped. ****! I thought. Freeview culture has ****** me up which is why I moved over to OnlyFans.

    First time watching live sport on @VMSportIE @VirginMediaIE and again the picture quality is beyond bad. How are we still in this place where basic HD on freeview isn't a thing? You can't see player numbers on the wide view. #IREvRSA #Rugby

    @RandyMack88 @AlexLloyd1 @BBCNews Your tweet made it sound like you thought it was just those specific things and that you didn't need a licence for things like freeview (when you do) just a tweet interpretation issue happens all the time on this bird app

  • OnnaLoves Juliana (@OnnaLoves) reported

    15/ I withdrew my FREEVIEW content that never earned its keep, and essentially cost me a roof over my head. And yes I was bitter that one video accidentally went out for free, as it has cost me bricks that would have been something towards a deposit at least.

  • LiamKav LiamKav (@LiamKav) reported

    @cathyannis @CartoonsHateHer I was tempted to disable GBnews on my in-laws Freeview box just to nip the problem in the bud before it got worse.

  • kkl033 Scooter (@kkl033) reported

    @AmazonFreevee please find a way to pay to watch commercial-free. Infuriating to watch a series with same 5 commercials 1000's of times. When this series is over, so is my relationship with Freevee. Freeview sucks! #freeveesux
