    @traceyfromrasen @Kavismate @SkySportsRacing @RacingTV My Freeview signal can be hopeless at best even connected to Wi-fi but the HDMI/laptop combo works well when the cat isn’t jumping on it !

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

    @Alichat66 @TommyGribbin There's more than enough for the average family to watch on #Freeview I've never understood why anyone - especially those on low incomes - feel they have to have Sky. #GetReal

    @jackcox2312 Hi, Jack. The closest thing to Teletext on Freeview is the BBC Red Button service and it would be up to the TV to support it. Fraser

  • skierlisa Lisa (@skierlisa) reported

    Dear @davechanneI I have never watched you because you don't work where I live please can you fix it that I can .. I have @Freeview but only get a small number of channels. also why do I have to pay the same price for a Freeview box as someone else who gets all the channels?

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @JustAsk40745451 Hi, I believe if you follow Freeview Advice this should allow you to DM us. I have tried to DM you, for some reason I am unable to do this. Please try a software update within the TV settings. You could also try a factory reset to resolve the issue. Thank you, Melissa

  • simonwhittaker1 Simon Whittaker (@simonwhittaker1) reported

    @danbloom1 @jed_mercurio Cancel Netflix, prime, Disney, sky/virgin tv, change phone contract to sim only, have freeview, shop at Aldi, no takeaways or eating out, don’t smoke or vape, don’t drink, cut down on other excess spend….just a few tips to help there.

    @scott_gamer @verystickybunny @UKTV I guess you never know what broadcasters will choose to do next. PlayUK could have been a successful competitor to The Hits and TMF on Freeview if it hadn't closed for UK History.
