  • PaulW_1 Paul Williams✈️ (@PaulW_1) reported from Sale, England

    @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

    @gary_worden @cjssydney @cptcapitalg @FrogAlaPeche Poor people either don't have a TV or watch freeview.

  • ManilaChinchila wtf_Daniel (@ManilaChinchila) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi, I've lost the Freeview signal my TV receives since last night because of the storm. If I sent you my postcode, could you check what the status will be for the transmitter to be up and running again please?

  • Lutzoid Stephen Farrell (@Lutzoid) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice quick question folks. Just bought a new TV and the Freeview Play app is installed. I honestly don't know if this is an on demand service or a live broadcast service (or both?) I have no TV aerial, nor TV licence as I haven't watched live broadcast TV for years.

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @Lutzoid Hi, Freeview Play is a catch-up TV service that provides access to BBC iPlayer, ITV Hub, All4, My5, UKTV Play, CBS Catch-up, Horror Bites, POP Player etc. Freeview Play may need an aerial as well as the internet to initialise. Christine

  • missmint charliebrown (@missmint) reported from Carryduff, Northern Ireland

    @LGUK I am unable to get any freeview channels. Other TVs in house working. Did a retune, factory reset and tried in different rooms. Still not picking up freeview. Usually works with no issues at all. Netflix etc working
