  • GeorgeBaldwin14 George Baldwin (@GeorgeBaldwin14) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    And has been mentioned before, I and I'm sure many others would never have followed rugby without the Six Nations being free to watch and having it on freeview year after year

  • MeurigRogers Morgan Barber-Rogers #FBPE melt and centrist dad (@MeurigRogers) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bethanjenkins Project Kangaroo became YouView. It wasn’t shut down because it was a ppv model - it was meant to be like an online Freeview. It was shut down because it was deemed unfair competition for private companies. Who are now all Americans.

  • IanCleverly06 Ian Cleverly (@IanCleverly06) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    Just an FYI @DMAX_UK but you've just showed Series 3 Ep10 of #Archer, when the Freeview EPG (and your website) has you showing the correct in order Ep 9. It has the same down for the Sat midnight showing (ie Ep 10 is listed in you'll show Ep 9)

  • MichaelLeeLewi4 Michael Lee Lewis (@MichaelLeeLewi4) reported from Aberdare, Wales

    @kieranjameen Kieran cancel it, my sister did with hers and hasn't missed it, you can buy internet freeview boxes now and you can download all the apps onto them, no monthly payments then, just for what you choose to, much cheaper

  • dave_maydew Dave Maydew MW0DCM (@dave_maydew) reported from Tonyrefail, Wales

    @FreeviewAdvice @arqiva More disappointed, but I suppose I've got to accept it, after totally cutting the cord. I do have a tech question though. I'm using the Plex Media Server for Freeview, but the supplied EPG by Gracenote is terrible, is there a XML file of the one you use on the Android app

  • jonnyhern Jonathan (@jonnyhern) reported from Pontypool, Wales

    @Thomoli @PhilipsCare_UK I’ve been waiting 8 weeks for same issue not worked for me since I bought my TV. I dont have an aeriel tho just satellite cable connected & internet but no catch up aps work or freeview

    @FreeviewAdvice Hello. My freeview is down 3 days already. Stevenage Hertfordshire

  • Gracie1982 Laura (@Gracie1982) reported

    Our Sky box is dead. We’ve lost everything we had recorded or planned. We now have very slow freeview. It’s like we’re cave people - until Tuesday when our replacement arrives.

  • WinterHopeUK alan turner (@WinterHopeUK) reported

    @ShaunKehoe @SkyHelpTeam It probably would but think this is big let down with sky glass , the channels that’s missing is bad , I am kicking sky tv in to touch getting a freeview box better and cheaper until sky add more channels to it

  • climate_is_ok Go Woke Go Broke (@climate_is_ok) reported

    @Bridgetpee You'll have Freeview tuner in a post 2016 tv. Plug in the satellite or terrestrial aerial and scan channels. Sometimes the Freeview settings need tweaking. Hit me up if you have problems

  • Lois68 Lola (@Lois68) reported

    @piersmorgan @PiersUncensored I don't have 237 on my Freeview. I'm not tech savvy. Help me

  • Haggis91569570 Northern Haggis🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Haggis91569570) reported

    @FreeviewTV Why is the freeview signal reception so terrible in north east Scotland and can we get a discount on the license fee for having to put up with your abysmal service.

  • atomicloonybin Garry Brogden (@atomicloonybin) reported

    @badmissk @366DaiChallenge I bought a telly for my pensioner sister. I went into Currys and said "doesn't have broadband, not interested in streaming or 'smart', just wants the Freeview channels". You literally can't buy such a thing. I walked out with a JVC with 90% of its functionality she'd never use.

  • daryl_millar Daryl Millar (@daryl_millar) reported

    @hammer_n_tubing I never had Sky, so I consider myself a "pay lite" customer. i.e. Freeview with a few add-ons. It'd make me uncomfortable to know I was paying as much for streaming as a Sky package.

  • christopher_eng Christopher England 🇬🇧 (@christopher_eng) reported

    Just seen that all the programme times on the Freeview version of @talktv 's EPG are 1 hour out. Bet they don't fix it in time for Monday.
