    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!

  • 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

  • annmurphy_wigan Ann Murphy (@annmurphy_wigan) reported from Wigan, England

    @FreeviewAdvice Well, after waiting 2 weeks for a Freeview engineer we are told we need a new aerial. Also, they can’t help us because we have Sky! So they change Winter Hill and now we have to pay. Why didn’t they say this 3 weeks ago...😳

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

    @EddieMakesGames I honestly find the crap TVs work best for freeview, assuming that’s what you’re on. Bluepoint is a great brand for simple freeview.

  • OfficialAlgie Algie🕊️💜🎧 (@OfficialAlgie) reported

    @MrWayneGarton @Kieronocall @StanCollymore There's 100s of channels on Freeview... without all the streaming sites that lots of people have... I see no issue...x

  • mackin_john John Mackin (@mackin_john) reported

    @Murphthered1 I've not been paying attention - whats been cancelled? I never watch terrestrial telly anyway. And don't have Sky or Freeview etc.

  • Redeyes1878 RedWhiteBlack1878 (@Redeyes1878) reported

    Watching Real Madrid on @PremierSportsTV because of their Freeview offering. Never watched such poor coverage of any event. Poor sound, awful commentary, absolute amateur offering. Like watching a match on FIFA20.

  • philisared Phil Rogers 👹🐯👹🐯 (@philisared) reported

    @TrylineUK Thank god this game is on freeview, and not that garbage that’s just been dished up in Perpignan.

  • OliReading Oli from Reading 🦁 (@OliReading) reported

    @Julian70703354 @sharonsstacey That's not showing on Freeview yet but then Freeview is never too fast at updating 🤔🤔 #EastEnders

  • BlueArmBar Blue (@BlueArmBar) reported

    @datnofact yeah i mean clearly the british media is doing this ****. its literally the only thing on the freeview channels main channels. bloody who gives a toss.

  • brendempsey Brendan Dempsey (@brendempsey) reported

    Oddest cancellation, Last Night of The Proms. Oddest complaint, that there's nothing else on telly. Apart from ITV, Channel 4, 5, Netflix, Amazon, Apple, HBO, Sky, Disney+, Paramount+, Hulu, movie channels, and Freeview. Nothing at all.

  • TalkingPicsTV Talking Pictures TV (@TalkingPicsTV) reported

    @Prof_Nostalgia @TPTVEncore @freesat_tv It's just Freeview for now. We cannot make promises but will continue to consider all possibilities for the future development of the service whenever possible.

    @_loves_dogs @getnorthern My freeview box broke, I could fix it but now is not the time
