    Time for the BBC to close down the BBCNews channel as they always seem to put it on BBC1 at same time WHY as BBCNews is available on sky freesat and freeview you dont need it on BBC1

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

  • RobKerr32 Rob Kerr - I'm NOT a Robot (@RobKerr32) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @traceyfromrasen @Kavismate @SkySportsRacing @RacingTV My Freeview signal can be hopeless at best even connected to Wi-fi but the HDMI/laptop combo works well when the cat isn’t jumping on it !

  • uk12345 ken (@uk12345) reported from Romford, England

    @bt_uk I got a problem it's not my fault and it's not BT issue I lost a lot of Freeview channels in my flat I went to no cancel and said you can have a dish because aerials are very bad in your area where you live we've had a lot of people coming to us about the same problem

  • uk12345 ken (@uk12345) reported from Romford, England

    @nowtvhelp I still got my old with the built-in Freeview TV all that still work and I do I'll come back to you because I transferred my account to BT I Wish I Never now if that box doesn't work I have to buy my NOW TV stick from you?

  • jaymirro Jay (@jaymirro) reported

    No telly at all in Glasgow area @FreeviewTV since last night. Is the #freeview service goosed?

  • LMac1970 Mr Lawrence 😷 (@LMac1970) reported

    @KellyQuilt If really battening down, consider ditching any streaming or satellite commitments (FreeSat is good if you have a dish, FreeView if not). Moving to an electric car (or if unfeasible a certain vintage of Citroen C1, Toyota Aygo or Peugeot 106) will save you on fuel and road tax.

  • HeidiRoseC Heidirose Calandra (@HeidiRoseC) reported

    @MoneySavingExp Can't get a good freeview signal so got Freesat. Very happy with it. Seriously underrated

  • TalkingPicsTV Talking Pictures TV (@TalkingPicsTV) reported

    @Morris_Oxford Have you tried retuning your box, or speaking to your service provider? How do you watch us - Freeview etc?

  • HiFranc Francisco (@HiFranc) reported

    @KellyQuilt Do you use Freeview/Freesat or a paid for service? If the latter, may be time to switch to the former?

  • ellzagirliegirl E ✨ ❤️ (@ellzagirliegirl) reported

    @ReannaParkinson @NOW It’s expensive even to add multi room so it’s even worse getting a separate package. There’s only a few channels I would watch on Sky that aren’t on Freeview, and I rarely watch catchup Sky, so it wouldn’t be worth the stupid prices for me either.

  • dougmcfarlane41 Douglas Mcfarlane (@dougmcfarlane41) reported

    Oh **** me @bbc5live all over whatsapp outage etc and the 'horrror'. Excuse me we haven't had even FREEVIEW since August 10th and due to come back 15th October...not a whisper

  • FreeviewTV Freeview (@FreeviewTV) reported

    @DavidBoink @russeaside1053 Hi David, Sometimes mobile broadband services can interfere with TV signals in some areas. A company called DMSL has been established by mobile phone operators to help resolve these reception issues for Freeview users. If you want any further information, you can send us a DM.

  • Unt_Lion Michael Fuller (@Unt_Lion) reported

    @sparkyfireman @channel5_tv I don't think they'll be able to for now, since they are at a backup centre. On Sep 26th, there was an incident at the transmission centre for Channel 4 and Channel 5. And that has been showing up for those on Freeview and Virgin.

  • KeithCP2 Keith Pates (@KeithCP2) reported
