  • Robbo72uk Andy Roberts (@Robbo72uk) reported from Southport, England

    Virgin tv and broadband gone down yet again. Resorting to Freeview right now. The picture quality is actually much better than Virgin...AND no glitches and constant picture breakup!!

  • richard__webb Richard Webb (@richard__webb) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    @GBNEWS i was so looking forward to it. But… on freeview the picture quality is really poor, sound is out of sync, and just feels like the sets are dark and badly lit. Took my focus away from listening to whats being projected. #GBNews

  • Quizbay George K (aka Stavros) #FBPE (@Quizbay) reported

    Over 200 freeview channels and my wife and me have spent the evening watching The vicar of Dibly on iPlayer. There is some proper crap on the TV. As for 'I'm a celebrity get me out' - a stupid program for stupid people.

  • SPNNOWN4EVER Jayne Llewin (@SPNNOWN4EVER) reported

    Well that's it I am going to leave after being a loyal customer even if I join freeview it's got to be better than this

  • allenpriest Allen Priest 🇨🇦🏳️‍🌈 (@allenpriest) reported

    @cbcgem @fordnation That is what I am doing; but it’s annoying. Theres still no fix on GEM. It seems that there is no desire for a fix; its been like six weeks and no change. Basically CBC is content to use the work around until NN is out of freeview. Also no contact on my ticket.

  • Al_Hine Al Hine (@Al_Hine) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice @TalkingPicsTV Can I ask why not all services are not on all TX sites? My Freeview transmitter does not carry BBC News HD or BBC Four HD? Everyone pays the same licence fee & should get the same service!

  • rogerj458 DODGER #StayHomeSaveLives (@rogerj458) reported

    @GarethRossUK @nowtvhelp Same problems with my Freeview box.. subtitles only started today 🤔🤪🤪

  • Deborah17654692 Deborah White (@Deborah17654692) reported

    You won’t believe this but since having Sky Q installed apparently you loose aerial signal in another room like me my bedroom can’t get freeview anymore this is wrong and Sky should have mentioned it I’ll be on the phone later in morning 😠

  • josephpickard Joseph Pickard (@josephpickard) reported

    I don’t think I’d get a good freeview signal for @QuestTV even if I happened to be watching it on a Cessna that was hurtling towards the closest transmitter

  • rhumbas Billy wee #Snpout (@rhumbas) reported
