  • PhilMcBoobs Philip McHale (@PhilMcBoobs) reported from Barnet, England

    @jonnyt78 Not at all. Was supposed to be awful except from some certain sections of the media. Some of the games were of freeview over here as well, I didn’t have a clue

  • coulson3000 Hank Moody (@coulson3000) reported from Kensington, England

    I will never have normal freeview tv

  • LILBUBBLE1 Bu88ble (@LILBUBBLE1) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @FreeviewAdvice I’ve been experiencing a lot of poor quality imaging/interruptions of my freeview in my area, Chingford, London. Also I’ve been able to DM you and I’m not sure why the system is not enabling it. It doesn’t bring up your company when I try

  • fishinthedark1 fishinthedark (@fishinthedark1) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

  • EranE1980 Eran Edry (@EranE1980) reported from Camden Town, England

    @FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

  • psnow85 Peter Snow (@psnow85) reported from Arkley, England

    @Samantha_J_Rea Hmm not to sure about freeview but definitely freesat it’s been taken off for over a year. Probably the same though. Sucks big time. Anyway. Hope you are well.

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

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

  • crazycol Colin Wiseman (@crazycol) reported from Ealing, England

    @stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.

  • cycleoptic cycleoptic💙💚 (@cycleoptic) reported from Islington, England

    @jock_savage @ruskin147 This licence lets you use and install receiving equipment at the licensed place. watch or record TV on any channel via any TV service (e.g. Sky, Virgin, Freeview, Freesat) watch live on streaming services (e.g. ITVX, All 4, YouTube, Amazon Prime Video, Now, Sky Go)

  • vjlorenzato Victoria Lorenzato (@vjlorenzato) reported from Brentford, England

    Catholic Twitter UK- help please! Anyone know of a Mass being broadcast on TV tomorrow ( not via internet) Lovely elderly lady has Freeview but no internet.... TIA!

  • Tommy_M_E_J Tom Jordan (@Tommy_M_E_J) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @njvns That’s so shit. It’s literally called freeview and yet it’s not free

  • D_Hollingsworth Dan Hollingsworth (@D_Hollingsworth) reported from Rickmansworth, England

    When did BBC4 HD. Leave Freeview? What a load of ****, missed a chunk of #TOTP and joining it late with Michael ruddy Jackson.

  • XtopherCalvert Christmas Calvert (he/him) (@XtopherCalvert) reported from Poplar, England

    Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?

  • Dante_Banks Danté Banks (@Dante_Banks) reported from Tottenham, England

    @tinytwink The poor shouldn't have anything they have to work for. Big screen TV - nope. Netflix - what's wrong with Freeview? Mobile phone - can't they walk to the phone box on the corner that was disconnected five years ago. They think if you're poor you should suffer or not be poor.

  • 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 😂

  • JEFFREY03296741 JEFFREY PHILLIPS (@JEFFREY03296741) reported from Brentford, England

    @TalkingPicsTV Hello. Watching at about 4.35 pm on Monday 24th the Sky TV picture was completely lost from your channel and went off air. All other channels were fine. Also okay on Freeview but I missed the end of the film. At 4.48 pm it is still without a, signal. What's up?

  • Stroudgreenguy J. Alfred Prufrock (@Stroudgreenguy) reported from Tottenham, England

    @Channel4 Hello. Can I watch Channel 4 *live* through the All 4 app on smart TV? All I see is catchup. I would like to watch CH 4 news every night but my aerial is broken, no Freeview. Please advise.

  • 1FatKev Kevin Killoran (@1FatKev) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia really poor show all TV channels drop out just as the snooker semifinal is about to finish #freeview why not.

  • 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.

  • UB5simon Simon Bye 🐟🔶 (@UB5simon) reported from Southall, England

    All those **** channels on Freeview and it's BBC News HD that gets the chop 🤔

  • IBLaughing Ian Bowden (@IBLaughing) reported

    How did Netflix & Chill get to be slang for a hook-up? What about Sky Q & ****? Amazon Prime & ****? Freeview & ****? All4 & ***********? That said, I do identify with Netflix the most. I want a commitment and if they try to leave I send several emails begging them not to.

  • LY33KH4 Lyeekha (@LY33KH4) reported

    my freeview doesnt have good enough signal strength for non-bbc channels aarrurghhghghbgh

  • Aurora_UK_LAH Lisa Hetherington (@Aurora_UK_LAH) reported

    @AlanFisher Hi Alan, have you any idea why Chauvin trial has been removed from Al J UK Freeview news? So angry/disappointed as was following non-stop coverage for 8 days then went off without explanation yest! Feel let down. Thanks for your excellent work incl impeachment trial.

  • GrannySmithGrey Me (@GrannySmithGrey) reported

    @Wildisonmine @itvnews All the frit MSM because people have turned off and don't believe their Lefty rhetoric Also millions are refusing to buy BBC License Tax and newprint begging for donations Oh shame never mind move on GB News coming soon for free on Freeview, Sky, Virgin, channel 236? number

  • DaveyBoi73 Dave ♿️ Esq (@DaveyBoi73) reported

    @MarkBlackmore33 @StuartYoung001 @RealPaulMartin I only have the virgin media version of freeview so it's not worth me asking for the new box. If I could find a great stable streaming service for free then I would get rid of the VM TV.

  • Emwold1 Maz (@Emwold1) reported

    @peter4buckley I hardly ever watch TV, just Gogglebox or the odd rare temptation, so never bothered with more than Freeview. I prefer reading, with the radio on. But not today...

  • Adjie16077 Claire Menzies (@Adjie16077) reported

    @Ofcom Fed Up with watching TV full of rubbish to many reality TV and full of too many daily repeats. Freeview lies about new series that are just moved repeated on different channels. When are we going to receive good news every day instead of constant bad news?

  • sadmanontheleft Jack Boag (@sadmanontheleft) reported

    As someone pointed out, Channel 4 didn’t broadcast Diana’s funeral, putting on kids cartoons instead. It’s kinda their job so that people on Freeview can watch something else while the others broadcast the gloomy ****, particularly in a pandemic where you can’t leave the house

  • McMclaughlin16 Kieran McLaughlin (@McMclaughlin16) reported

    Have unfortunately just perused Freeview TV. Never have I ever imagined such shite would be presented to any. Someone please save us !

  • BenRattigan77 Ben Rattigan 🇪🇺🏳️‍🌈 💉 𝙉𝙃𝙎 💙 (@BenRattigan77) reported

    @virginmedia That £70 being for broadband which is on average about 20Mbps and TiVO box that has less channels than Freeview. The TiVO box is about 5/6 year old and has been crap slow since day one.
