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

  • 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 😂

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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • orkitecht85 sparky t k o (@orkitecht85) reported

    Today’s first world problem: switching to the I-Player for the Hundred match because the picture for BBC2 is a bit fuzzy on Freeview, and being a bit sulky that it’s about 30 seconds delayed.

  • Caro64733955 Caroline138 (@Caro64733955) reported

    @JeremyVineOn5 A paedetrician on GB News (freeview 236) last week said higher chance of under 18s dying of heart problems following jab than dying of Covid. If they’ve already had covid the chance of dying after jab even greater

  • StevenNT Steven Jones (@StevenNT) reported

    @Mark56623345 @a516digital for me the communal dish is 90cm and on the roof as part of the Communal Integrated Reception system so exposed to the rain when it really does throw it down and lose sat reception for a short period so I fall back to Freeview option for a bit on that one

  • GarethNegus Gareth Negus (@GarethNegus) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi. Are there any issues with the Mendip transmitter at the moment? Our Freeview reception has been dreadful for several days now.

  • StevenNT Steven Jones (@StevenNT) reported

    @Mark56623345 @a516digital I'm currently a Sky Q customer as it's what I have at my new build apartment, Freeview and Freesat don't quite fit my uses but for as a basic level it's not too bad and fall back to Freeview when very severe rain hiders reception

  • Ianberr94603191 Ian berry (@Ianberr94603191) reported

    I'm fed up, my Freeview box broken,I was wondering if anyone got a spare Freeview box with remote control, tile hill Coventry area please,till September 2

  • DBuick22 David Buick (@DBuick22) reported

    @aj__lmao It being a Friday night and on freeview TV doesn’t help either, but it’s definitely largely down to the mood following the last 3 games.

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital It's like the guy, "harry hill" who came to my house sent by freeview, I never asked for him, just turned up. Here to fix your TV mate,

  • PurpleDon1973 MadameCholet (@PurpleDon1973) reported from Ilford, England

    Some days I really wish I'd kept all those calls to @JimDavisOnAir on my freeview box. I've been sent way back in time with a USB memory stick, a few years back with some calls. Damn, I really miss those days with the song choice and #JimDavisLive And it was just brilliant radio

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital What's needed however is to change the technology used and support a better system, such as DVB T2. I don,t see streaming as a threat to freeview or freesat for that matter. As , the title says it's free. Streaming is all paid for. Just ask my neighbours!.
