    @Sillyshib Heartbeat, ssshhh, it's never been off. You can watch Heartbeat every day on freeview

  • annmurphy_wigan Ann Murphy (@annmurphy_wigan) reported from Wigan, England

    @FreeviewAdvice Well, after waiting 2 weeks for a Freeview engineer we are told we need a new aerial. Also, they can’t help us because we have Sky! So they change Winter Hill and now we have to pay. Why didn’t they say this 3 weeks ago...😳

  • Robbo72uk Andy Roberts (@Robbo72uk) reported from Southport, England

    Virgin tv and broadband gone down yet again. Resorting to Freeview right now. The picture quality is actually much better than Virgin...AND no glitches and constant picture breakup!!

  • AndyMcK1982 Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @jaxlfc_jj @YaTerrynorris70 It’s not restricted to the BBC. If you watch or record live TV on any channel - either through your TV or through a website - then you need a TV licence. This applies whether you receive Freesat, Freeview or a pay-TV service in your home, & whether or not you watch BBC channels.

    @GBNEWS i was so looking forward to it. But… on freeview the picture quality is really poor, sound is out of sync, and just feels like the sets are dark and badly lit. Took my focus away from listening to whats being projected. #GBNews

  • bulldogbyrne julie byrne (@bulldogbyrne) reported from Hindley, England

    Why do I keep paying for TV service which is shit @BTGroup I get better service on indoor freeview aerial

  • johnworthy27 john worthington (@johnworthy27) reported from Preston, England

    @chloesammike @andywigmore @KayBurley Don't worry you can still get Sky news on channel 132 on your Freeview box. Thick ****.....

  • 2013jamiepep James Pepperd (@2013jamiepep) reported from St Helens, England

    I don't have an ariel or freeview I rely on your piece of shit @virginmedia #VirginMedia

  • karlmcintyre Karl McIntyre (@karlmcintyre) reported from St Helens, England

    @drewhill79 @VodafoneUK @MattJConnor @StHKHIS Same here. BT got the 150 mb and it flies. Good support and I stream everything!! Don’t even have normal freeview.

  • Toffeewolfie Philip whitehurst (@Toffeewolfie) reported from Liverpool, England

    @rlwjones @Nick_Metcalfe @MarkyBunny They made one champions League game per round free to air..usually the crap games though..they used to have a channel on Freeview..

  • Big_Frank88LFC seán (@Big_Frank88LFC) reported

    @Tipler1983 Considering most people have sky, virgin, freeview & even the skullduggery of IPTV I doubt very much we'll have any broadcasting issues. Plus all shows are on their on demand services which are international

  • blogmywiki Giles Booth (@blogmywiki) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV Hi there - your channel seems to have vanished from my TV. Freeview, London area, strong line-of-site signal from Crystal Palace transmitter. It was there before. Retuning didn't work. Any ideas?

  • dannyboy7796 Daniel Jones (@dannyboy7796) reported

    @Wolf30331 @ItCorbyn @darrengrimes_ OK, so they're truly as bad as I've heard? Wow, I genuinely thought that would be against the rules on freeview broadcast media. Remember they banned RT, although that was down to sanctions to be fair. Good to know I was right to avoid them.

  • techprocess1 🇬🇧 (@techprocess1) reported

    @extravelservice @SkyUK It’s a sky streaming only service Locked into Sky better off getting a smartTV . Look at BT TV £6 a month for Sky entertainment Netflix and freeview. And record 600 hours all without an aerial or dish.

  • Millardy73 Millardy 🧔🏽👩🏽‍🦱🚔🚨 (@Millardy73) reported

    Tit, ***** b*llocks and bum gums! Was getting ready to watch QI XL and the bloody TV went poof! Damn you #Freeview. Have they not found a way yet to cope with fog and high pressure! Humph! Internet it is then!

  • TalkingPicsTV Talking Pictures TV (@TalkingPicsTV) reported

    @blogmywiki We are broadcasting loud and clear, Giles. We haven't moved. Have you tried retuning your box? If you still have problems you will need to speak to Freeview, there is a helpline: Freeview advice line on 03456 505050

  • Kimmieprice19 K I M B E R L Y 🇺🇦💙💛🌻 She/Her (@Kimmieprice19) reported

    @Farmer_Mooo @Depheruk I don’t have a house phone, seeing as I’m hardly home I felt it an unnecessary bill, seeing as freeview channels are awful for children’s programs, forgive me for having Netflix and Disney+ (which is a lot cheaper than sky or virgin May I add!) what a small minded opinion u have!

  • BDpMOHUjfU0guzV oli henshaw (@BDpMOHUjfU0guzV) reported

    @Dinnaedothat @SamBT40 @fesshole So you agree the bbc is a lefty biased site All 5 main freeview channels are so dont talk **** about the media being a tory outlet

  • ETusty Emma T (@ETusty) reported

    Yet again poor (well no) freeview signal. Seems that yet again much of the south east is suffering from blackouts this evening. OH's annoyed because he's missing the SAS BBC show, although I did point out he could go onto BBC iplayer which should work.

  • den66621408 den (@den66621408) reported

    @GBNEWS GBN On freeview keeps freezing is anyone else having problems. Talk TV and all other channels working fine.
