    @Ossyref I know but it’s not on Freeview. Not everyone has YouTube for TV or ability to watch on app. We ok as have Virgin but it’s still crap they ain’t showing it for others.

    @gmomanyi2003 Hi Jeff, Freeview is only available in the UK. If the problem is with the box I recommend contacting the manufacturer, they should be able to help with any problems recorder related. Thanks, C

    @RailwaymenThe I have Freesat rather than Freeview which means even this service is unavailable.

  • JohnPHealy John Healy (@JohnPHealy) reported

    @stroughtonsmith @stacktracepod Hi there. I’ve just stumbled across this tweet, and I think this satellite TV app is something I need in my life! I’m looking for a way to access my saorview and freeview channels from any Apple TV on my network. Is that what this is? If so, I would be super interested.

  • Adjie16077 Claire Menzies (@Adjie16077) reported

    Next year I’m going to refuse to pay my TV licence until the government do something about our TV & the BBC as a corporation not as channels because they’re just as bad. I am fed up with watching the same program is repeated on different channels through Freeview & no subtitles

  • HarryPie1862 HarryPie. 🤔 🥀😷 (@HarryPie1862) reported

    All broadcasters are bought, especially the state-owned & Tory party controlled BBC. But when billion pound missiles are directed at bringing down a broadcaster's HQ, your can bet your bottom dollar that broadcaster is less corrupted than others. Al Jazeera news Freeview 235

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital I'm mystified why they send someone round when I've already established reception is not possible. I watch local TV on sky or freesat no problem!which is for the Thames valley, on freeview its if I'm lucky other wise very weak Anglia or west from swindon.

  • BeccaH88 Becca (@BeccaH88) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice hi Freeview, wondering if you can help. Just moved into a new build and your postcode checker says we won't get Freeview - not sure if this is true or just because we have a new postcode? Don't want to waste money on an aerial if we can't get it!

  • trevorlong Trevor Long (@trevorlong) reported

    @JamesCridland @EFTM No mate, because you're the only one on the planet who cares:))) sorry... cross carry of EPG was an issue when i was at SBS - industry doesn't care, put too much effort into Freeview+ instead of the basic EPG - I hear ya... but, I'd be sticking with fetch:)

  • Nixed81 Nicholas O (@Nixed81) reported

    Freeview reception seems down again right now. The picture is all heavily pixelated. I've tried it using 2 different aerial cables and 3 different televisions. I just forked out on a new 4k tv last month. Not happpy!

  • marshallmaps Roversgotmeagain (@marshallmaps) reported

    @deGourlay I know that, I’ve hidden it on my Freeview box. I had paid Sky for years but their BLM support was the last straw. I am no longer paying any money to Sky so have defunded them.
