  • bulldogbyrne julie byrne (@bulldogbyrne) reported from Hindley, England

    Why do I keep paying for TV service which is shit @BTGroup I get better service on indoor freeview aerial

  • 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

  • garethrichmond5 Gareth Richmond (@garethrichmond5) reported from Bury, England

    If anyone needs a football fix Copenhagen are playing some other Danish club behind closed doors on Freeview 64...... is this what it’s come to😂

  • Like47 Les Dawson and me #JC4PM2019 #LabourActivist (@Like47) reported from Manchester, England

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

  • Ognjenovic Filip (@Ognjenovic) reported

    @AllsGood6 @DefundBBC I am just trying freeview again for first time in ages at my mums. It's absolute insulting crap. My decision to cancel the licence was the correct one

  • Gareth23701455 Gareth (@Gareth23701455) reported

    @ChrissieLefranc @kaled10 @GBNEWS I believe the test signal is only being broadcast on freeview at the moment because the signal needs physically tuned in on many boxes like old tellys were. On Sky the test signal is less necessary as no tuning by the user is necessary, just keep checking 515 until it appears.

    @gregorybelton @BiscuitHalf @Reachingbroom The BBC licence fee supports the Freeview platform - no BBC and Channel 4 (the commercial side of public service broadcasting) - no Freeview. :There's no such thing as a free lunch'.

  • Nintendologist Jon Bennett (@Nintendologist) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Over the past few days I’ve had to retune Freeview multiple times a day otherwise “no signal” keeps happening. Based in North Oxfordshire. Any known problems with the Oxford transmitter please?

  • DarthElliot . (@DarthElliot) reported

    @Cuppa378 It’s free because they’re contractually obligated to provide it for freeview. As they were happy to show the EL final in full resolution on YouTube 3 days back, not doing the same for the CL as the more important competition is pathetic.

  • _Monty200_ Monty200💚☮🦆🌍✨ (@_Monty200_) reported

    @persiarainn I think I heard of that too which is really abusive and horrible to do, especially towards a child actor. I remember Pop too (but we didn't even have that on freeview and was introduced to that when my sibling got sky freesat upstairs) and got into that channel before (1)

  • JulianRadbourne Julian Radbourne (@JulianRadbourne) reported from Cromer, England

    @dramachannel Will the first episode of series 5 of Waiting for God be on the catch-up service? Can't find it on either Sky+ or Freeview.

  • Leemackie mucker (@Leemackie) reported from Moulton, England

    Help please Freeview tv. I have accidentally deleted BBC1 from the listing on my TV and I have know idea how to re add it. Techwood tv

  • WooTube Andy Wootton (@WooTube) reported

    Freeview TV Guide says, "GB News is Coming". How do I fasch-block it, so they know, @FreeviewTV ? Are you taking bribes from streaming services to put crap on?

  • HealyMarr Marr Healy (@HealyMarr) reported

    I can't understand why itv4hd isn't available on freeview. Watching the tennis is awful.
