  • 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

  • adrianatkins196 adrian atkins (@adrianatkins196) reported from Crayford, England

    @Forces_TV hi guys having a few problems with your freeview picture in London it freezes or breaks up had it since Friday

  • nessymon Nessy 😷 (@nessymon) reported from London, England

    @MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.

  • 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 !

  • summers_allan Allan Kempson (@summers_allan) reported from Romford, England

    @talkSPORT @Sjopinion10 That's a bad idea. Sky have rights to other sports too, so a netflix football service would be yet another thing to pay for if you like multiple sports. More football needs to be on freeview channels like BBC and ITV.

  • 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?

  • uptownclub Franky uptownclub (@uptownclub) reported from Harlow, England

    @Virgin how do I go about leaving Virgin because I'm paying roughly £63.50 a month for a phone that I never use only to ring you up when there's a problem.. most of my viewing is on Freeview now and I have Amazon HD fire stick and Netflix account

  • u0421793 Ian K Tindale (@u0421793) reported from East Ham, England

    The Good, the Bad and The Ugly is just starting now on Paramount network freeview 32

  • themib Martin Bentley, AKA Martin Bentley (@themib) reported from London, England

    Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

  • 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 😂

  • adrianatkins196 adrian atkins (@adrianatkins196) reported from Crayford, England

    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

    @scotsvoice Hi Scot, I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Freeview Reception So, we can investigate this for you, can you please PM us your postcode and house name or number? Thanks, Dylan

  • chrishainstock media:man (@chrishainstock) reported

    @EyesWatchin @IndeedItsMark The sound is really bad on iPlayer via Freeview - how are you watching it?

  • MsKinLondon Katrina Buchanan 💙💚 (@MsKinLondon) reported

    I've discovered the most fantastically awful programme on a Freeview channel. Script, direction, acting all splendidly and spectacularly dreadful. I am completely hooked

  • DK1_DK1 DK (@DK1_DK1) reported

    @MattyladKRO @virginmedia I'm sure there will be other providers trying to do the same worried people will cancel services due to cost of living increases. We just cancelled SKY TV as were paying £50 a month to pretty much watch channels that are available on freeview.

  • TalkingPicsTV Talking Pictures TV (@TalkingPicsTV) reported

    @__Deja__Vu__ Most Freeview connectedTVs and set top boxes can receive the service

  • SenecaOre Seneca (@SenecaOre) reported

    @GBNEWS Unfortunately freeview signal is unusable. 😕

  • LMurphyy Lewis Murphy (@LMurphyy) reported

    @bt_uk Just ordered, as previously had a failed install due to weak aerial signal. Are the freeview channels now over internet available to be recorded? Thanks

  • LeachSie sue leach (@LeachSie) reported

    @AnnieCricket At that time we switched to Virgin but have subsequently returned to sky following problems with getting decent tv service through virgin. My parents just use a freeview box for their tv or you can get tv with inbuilt freeview now

  • dook42_domini Dook 🇬🇧 🇺🇸 🇳🇿 (@dook42_domini) reported

    @Trailer_Swift69 if using #freeview your lucky it's even watchable - since they removed the wavebands to 5G, it's been close to unwatchable for myself for the signal strength.. returned to the 1970's - about 3 watchable channels.

  • EarsAllex Room Z (@EarsAllex) reported

    Currently using an external aerial & dish to receive Sky & Freeview. Is it possible to remove dish & aerial & get both down a fibre optic phone line?
