  • 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 😂

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

    @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 !

    @BBCMonitoring @Ofcom @Freeview To whom can one report TV reception problems? Freeview and Ofcom direct to the BBC’s site, which requires 15 minute completion of details before announcing that ‘there was a problem - please try again’. Repeatedly. No TV reception for 3 days

  • DeadGirlZombie Charlotte Allen (@DeadGirlZombie) reported

    @virginmedia we contacted you yesterday to say our WiFi is down! You tell us you can’t get an engineer until Sat! It’s ridiculous! You owe us more then just money off our next bill! We have no tv as have no freeview and have to use our mobile data for that long is unacceptable!

  • MichaelCJDavid Michael (@MichaelCJDavid) reported

    @ivorsawbottom This needs to be good, Ivor. I’m holding you personally responsible for the lousy Freeview TV signal, I’m getting from the transmitter, at Rowridge, on Paradise Island. It just won’t do, you know.

  • KTCCLawson Shunma Katy-sumata Lawson (@KTCCLawson) reported

    @Harryc3000 @CuratorOfSands It was never a thing on Freeview television.

  • BoboAndDidou06 Daley The Fanboy (NEW ACCOUNT) (@BoboAndDidou06) reported

    @JennALT_01angel Didn’t really used to watch Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! as an infant, since we had no cable. I was just a modern Freeview guy. But, we got our first cable company in 2010, Sky. It was amazing but the price was unbelievable. But, WHO GIVES A ****???

  • AJFeneley James Fen (@AJFeneley) reported

    Anybody else lost the vast majority of their Freeview TV channels in the past week? Used to have basically everything but had to rescan and now down to 16 channels.... no ITV, no C4, nothing at all in HD any more. Had 100+ last week.... #rdguk
