  • RobKerr32 Rob Kerr - I'm NOT a Robot (@RobKerr32) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @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 !

  • themib Martin Bentley, AKA Martin Bentley (@themib) reported from London, England

    Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

  • 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 😂

  • EducationITGeek Charles N. 💙 (@EducationITGeek) reported

    @KeersMatt @steve_race BBC is 💩 compared to Netflix 🏅 £120/yr for the latter with option to cancel without prejudice. I don't have any TV channels / Freeview / iPlayer / Sky / Virgin / BT TV & don't watch live shows etc but have to pay a licence or risk prosecution? 'splain that one please 🤔

  • 4Viewers 4Viewers (@4Viewers) reported

    @dinogoldie Hi, we need to know who provides the signal so we take a look into this issue - is your signal provider Sky, Virgin Media, Freeview, Freesat etc? #B99

  • ChingfordChrisS Chingford Chris 🇬🇧 (@ChingfordChrisS) reported

    @steve_race You're right. I'll cancel them both and just watch all the free-to-air channels on Freeview. That won't be a problem, will it? Wait, what do you mean, the BBC will come after me with legal action, what will Netflix do? Oh, just turn Netflix off.

  • king_of_hobbies Carl Lee Hailey (@king_of_hobbies) reported

    @rockest_lobster @steve_race I unsuited Netflix in any case - wasn't really using it. Freeview streaming has a lot of stuff on it and Amazon Prime has other **** I use frequently. I also cancelled Now for similar reasons. Im not finding the alternatives massively compelling in short.

    @ricardoautobahn Ive never been happier for having a glitchy freeview reception.

  • litvank debbie *********** (@litvank) reported

    @transpenderism it's for the 'freeview' service lol

  • ijdunk Ian Dunkley 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿💙 (@ijdunk) reported

    @higgy365 @SkyArts The bad news is, it's nearly finished. I didn't realise until last week that @SkyArts is now on Freeview

  • WhenIsBirths Justin Lewis (@WhenIsBirths) reported

    @IrkthePurists GOLD's coming to Freeview soon, reportedly. So it'll be down to about five or six programmes when that happens, three of which will be Only Fools and Horses.

  • JessJBT Jess Jordan (@JessJBT) reported

    Freeview down in ME17 area since yesterday. Can’t get anything other than bbc. @FreeviewTV @FreeviewAdvice Please sort!!

  • surfnuttz Ian (@surfnuttz) reported
