    @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

  • 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.

  • 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...😳

  • shorthandwitch Gill Wray (@shorthandwitch) reported

    @LLLioness1973 Freeview has been awful for quite a few weeks now. I never know if I'm going to be able to watch my favourite programmes or whether they'll be too pixilated

  • SCEnquirer Southern Counties Enquirer (@SCEnquirer) reported

    @GemSiobhan @spectator @afneil You can pick up a 1TB BT freeview+ box on eBay for about £69. No subscriptions. For me it's buying a freeview+ box was a small price to pay to never have to watch adverts.

  • Feather_Dancer Feather_Dancer (@Feather_Dancer) reported

    @Noehaddock You can tell how the "Spot Conrad in the background" is going :p Not watched many episodes this week, they had Amazing Spiderman (Terrible) and Venom (******* fantastic) on freeview so kinda watched those instead lol

  • ddemOn888 Dad Attitude (@ddemOn888) reported

    @Ftumch3 Yeah. I only watch it if I stay in a hotel and the WiFi/phone reception is terrible and I'm reliant on Freeview TV.

  • neilmclaughlin2 neil mclaughlin (@neilmclaughlin2) reported

    @LiamODellUK Well over half of freeview channels never use subtitles, time all channels are required to use them as part of licence

  • 2_Wheeled_Wolf @2_Wheeled_Wolf 🇪🇺 (@2_Wheeled_Wolf) reported

    @RantyHighwayman Channel 5 likes spreading hate & misinformation & that **** show is allowed to continue when Wright left. Why I no longer watch Ch5 & removed from my Freeview box after their **** attack on cycling. #ScourgeOfTheTvChannels

  • vickysharp1 Vicky Sharp (@vickysharp1) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice cheers Freeview. Totally ruined the ending of Pearl Harbour tonight with your weak signal. Sort it out!!

  • ronniet240 Ronnie 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 totally 🇬🇧 (@ronniet240) reported

    If anybody wants to know why YouTube is so popular just take a look at FreeView and the old very old programs and films stacked with Adds that work as though subliminal messaging! 1hr program 20mins plus crap! 😡

  • CooroSnowFox 🦊 Auro D. Hikoshi 🦊 (@CooroSnowFox) reported

    @deathbyjulmust I never really cared and they were always on the the channel before freeview was a thing.

  • AndSmelly Smelly Socks and Garden Peas (@AndSmelly) reported

    @sarahMo3W @susankmann @TheDTblogs Having too much choice really is a 1st world problem. Between Netflix, Prime and Disney+ as well as NowTV and all the freeview stuff. I liked having 4 channels to pick from.
