    @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.

  • 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...😳

  • 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..

  • 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 ****.....

    Only real gripe about motel: the TV is increasingly useless for Freeview when more channels (both HD and SD) are using MPEG-4. Which kinda shows the age of the TV. But at ~$90 a night, it's a very small complaint.

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital @hischeekiness @ukdtt Also noticed court TV, the much hyped about channel has left freeview. Dads had enough of freeview. Too much returning etc. And the main aerial crashing down in last wèeks gales. As he understands freesat the challenge here is getting him using that.

  • StuartCowper Stuart Cowper (@StuartCowper) reported

    @My5_tv Hi folks, seem to be having issues watching the latest episode of Law and Order SVU S20 E8. On selecting it, the episode landing page doesn't load, just a black screen, and then need to reload the player. That's on Freeview Play on two Panasonic boxes. Any ideas?

  • shellshell1285 Michelle Brierley (@shellshell1285) reported

    @CourtTV hello. Please can you explain why this service has been removed from freeview? I watched this daily. Thanks.

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @FedupRepat @FreeviewTV Hi, Freeview apps are an add-on service, as the TV does not have an aerial input built-in, there is nothing to add to that, you can receive a similar service as our iOS and Android app available on phones/tablets by downloading the TV players separately. Hope this helps, Dev.

  • 156v6 Peter Hinitt Esq🍀🇬🇧🇬🇧 #leave #brexit (@156v6) reported

    To continue if I switch to. "freeview", my TV is fine on the same channels that Virgin is refusing to play properly. This has been ongoing for 4/5 days now. Yet you own chech status is not showing any issues.

  • KTCCLawson Miss Leading Herself, Katy Lawson (@KTCCLawson) reported from Renfrew, Scotland

    TikTok's latest trend is based on Adult Swim and the channel titles or whatever and... I grew up with Freeview television. I have no idea what's going on. I'm so lost. This is nearly as bad as when I tried to watch Phineas & Ferb with people and had no idea what was happening.

  • benbakerbooks Ben Baker (@benbakerbooks) reported

    My TV has inbuilt Freeview and the signal has been rubbish forever. I tried a cheap Blaupunkt indoor aerial last year but it did nowt (telly is not very near a window.) Is it worth trying something stronger or just keep relying on streaming?

  • suzysasha elizabeth scott 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@suzysasha) reported

    @Patricia344130 During the week it's fine but weekend TV is awful. I don't have Netflix etc only Freeview. I sometimes put dvds on of my fav shows. If you live alone there's not much else to do and the TV is company.

  • tashatam14 tashatam (@tashatam14) reported

    @GBNEWS @DrSpock_PhD No freeview where I live - no signal. I had to have freesat from Sky to get any TV at all when we went digital. I do not have an HD TV and I would have to subscribe to Sky to get channel 515 anyway. And buy a TV license. Where's the online version?
