    I love these Freeview updates. Each time I rescan the television I seem to lose additional channels! I'm down to QVC, Free Sports and That's 70s and it's only 3pm!

    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

  • jdwigglesworth Daniel Wigglesworth (@jdwigglesworth) reported

    Freeview channel 53 crashed the smart tv. Google said unplug, and then said reflow the motherboard. Managed to solve it by pressing lots of buttons all at once whilst holding down the power button onto AV menu🍺

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital But your right with your answers, tech questions, you hit a brick wall, or harry hill, whom i never asked for in the first place, if freeview think theyve answered my problem, well!

    @MamaMoose_Be I couldn't get the free trial last time I tried coz I am an ex Sky Digital customer. So they can do one! Get plenty to watch for free with Freeview & on apps with Amazon Firestick
