  • KAK_Tweets Krys Cross! Cha Cha Real Smooth (@KAK_Tweets) reported from Treorchy, Wales

    @flickeringflxme I’ve never seen that one myself but somehow my granddad ended up buying it for himself which was made weirder by the fact he only had freeview so didn’t even have Disney Channel. He loved it though

  • RobbieCub7 Rob Morgans (@RobbieCub7) reported from Margam, Wales

    @FreeviewTV @fb2070 My mother has had the same problem. Didn’t have any channels, so I retuned the Freeview box. HD channels are now missing. Can you advise please?

  • 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

    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.

    @Evi_SnowMew I learned this back in the early 90s when I moved from analogue mobile to digital network and found places I could make calls within college were suddenly not able to at all. Digital isn't always that great. We have an tv aerial that can't even get digital freeview.

  • _LoneWolf_ Paul (@_LoneWolf_) reported

    @SkyUK Looking at your deals, new customer deals, I need some information that I can't find online. Where can I find out monthly costs after initial 18 months? I found broadband after 18 months (£35.50 for what I picked) but not monthly TV costs - basic channels, freeview.

    @piersmorgan Nice to see you back on the box - and unfettered this time, but PLEASE could you get something done about the very poor quality of the Freeview channel? Picture quality very poor I'm afraid.

  • Lois68 Lola (@Lois68) reported

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

  • lennymr2 lennymr2 (@lennymr2) reported

    @emerald88604982 @ladydebbie6 @KensingtonRoyal I would never pay for tv. Freeview has loads and getting better every day. Most things on sky Netflix prime etc end up on Freeview anyway.

  • MrRew9 MrRew (@MrRew9) reported

    @piersmorgan It took about 10 minutes to scroll down the channel list on freeview to find a manic loop enthusing over a lookalike GBNews. Don’t think I’ll be doing that again when Coronation Street is on the 📺.

  • MapleFiltered Gruffalo Trace ❤️🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦❤️ (@MapleFiltered) reported

    @2004__harry @TeamUkraine2022 Th pq on Freeview is appalling. Looks like American TV from the mid 90's. On Sky it's HD. Likely 2 issues. 1:no space on Freeview multiplexes to squeeze HD on, or 2:Cost to do so is prohibited based on expected advertising revenues.

  • mansh21 Mandy S (@mansh21) reported

    @TalkTV I have a HD tv on freeview, picture and sound quality are terrible, that will stop me watching if it’s not sorted
