  • 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 !

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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 😂

    @JennALT_01angel Didn’t really used to watch Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! as an infant, since we had no cable. I was just a modern Freeview guy. But, we got our first cable company in 2010, Sky. It was amazing but the price was unbelievable. But, WHO GIVES A ****???

  • orkitecht85 sparky t k o (@orkitecht85) reported

    @GraceOnFootball I confess I had been exclusively using the free-to-air TV apps on my NOW TV box, until I realised that hanging my Freeview aerial on my drying rack relieved that issue.

    @ShiregreenOwl @teresadg0 The online services are definitely a big contributor, I agree. But a dedicated 24 hr news service on Freeview is far more accessible for many, and that will have an impact

  • cvrlh Cyrille Varnier - The Big Picture (@cvrlh) reported

    @RobintheBear @sixteennine If I may, Samsung DM75E's 450 nits seems a bit short for outdoor, should put it in a shaded area if possible. As for the Freeview signal it's standard HDMI1, HDMI2 and HDCP 1.4, it shouldn't cause any problem.

    @UKtodayUK Hi, I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Freeview channels. So we can look into this further for you can you please DM us your postcode and house name or number. Thanks, Dylan.

  • DeadGirlZombie Charlotte Allen (@DeadGirlZombie) reported

    @virginmedia we contacted you yesterday to say our WiFi is down! You tell us you can’t get an engineer until Sat! It’s ridiculous! You owe us more then just money off our next bill! We have no tv as have no freeview and have to use our mobile data for that long is unacceptable!

  • BrexitFoxy The People's Foxy 🦊 (@BrexitFoxy) reported

    @Sir_Woofingtons If you want to pay for it, shouldn't there be a choice enabling you to do so, but others not to do so? I don't see why they just don't go ad-funded on Freeview like every other network, with the option of subscription on iPlayer for ad-free catch-up and premium content.

  • veryoldbilly Bill Swan (@veryoldbilly) reported

    @BBCMonitoring @Ofcom @Freeview To whom can one report TV reception problems? Freeview and Ofcom direct to the BBC’s site, which requires 15 minute completion of details before announcing that ‘there was a problem - please try again’. Repeatedly. No TV reception for 3 days

  • Omz2468 Omz2468 (@Omz2468) reported

    @davidbicknell1 The little Englanders are about to have their own TV station in a few days time. Why aren't we all donating to someone such as @BylineTV (I am) ? Let's help get them on Freeview, even if it's only just a few hours per day initially

  • MichaelCJDavid Michael (@MichaelCJDavid) reported

    @ivorsawbottom This needs to be good, Ivor. I’m holding you personally responsible for the lousy Freeview TV signal, I’m getting from the transmitter, at Rowridge, on Paradise Island. It just won’t do, you know.
