  • minxsterev helen kirk (@minxsterev) reported from Crewe, England

    @curryspcworld Just been into your Crewe store looking for a freeview box. 5 staff members fiddling with displays, me the only customer. Not one member of staff came to see if I needed help. Going elsewhere as you obvs don't need my custom.

  • DavidSwindells1 David Swindells (@DavidSwindells1) reported from Macclesfield, England

    Hope we don't get this warm weather very often.#freeview doesn't work because of the high atmospheric pressure apparently. How am I going to watch #loveisland

  • JoyAnneGarner Joy Garner (@JoyAnneGarner) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Anyone else having issues with Freeview etc today? ST6 area ?

  • kirstxxiv kirstylouise (@kirstxxiv) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Imagine how much of a Christmas miracle it would be if BBC3 came back to freeview number 7. I can picture it now, Gavin & Stacey returns and BBC3 makes a comeback. 25/12/19 would go down in history.

  • Crewedaddy Richard Seamon (@Crewedaddy) reported from Crewe, England

    @james_blue_cat Can't afford any streaming service or the hardware upgrade to accommodate one. Freeview and iPlayer is enough. Didn't switch telly on Xmas day and Bob and Paul going fishing was my highlight.

  • RockcliffeFiles Rockcliffe Files (@RockcliffeFiles) reported from Werrington, England

    Warning, stupid question incoming, does a Freeview tele just simply plug into an old skool aerial?? My mum wants a new TV but doesn’t have cable. I’m assuming so? I’ve had cable since the early 90s so haven’t had to faff on with aerials for 30 odd years !!!

    @virginmedia As many people on here that had the same problem I don’t think it’s an issue where service checker says there is a problem and only happened for one event, other times it seems to be ok just yesterday was an issue and had to turn on freeview instead

  • rgell1 Rachel (@rgell1) reported

    @conciergemaree I have a Hisense tv- I tried pressing the red button but didn’t work. When you go to channel 7 do you get the Freeview bar down the bottom? Can just press across to get to 7plus

  • Jayfuz Jayfuz (🗣️Rufus, but Jay) 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@Jayfuz) reported

    @HookClassic I can't get the Welsh channels and the football is on there, so I Have to watch the matches on iPlayer, it's such a pain. I was scrapping with Freeview about this. Apparently the mountains are in the way of the antenna so I get Liverpool TV instead. Awful stuff.

  • FramptonRoz Roz Frampton (@FramptonRoz) reported

    @FreeviewTV People shouldn't waste their money. Freeview ourages have been horrendous recently. You note a few most reports but don't list all the areas affected, which include most of the country. No access to TV at all is most recorded complaint but many have total blackout. Make it work!

  • FramptonRoz Roz Frampton (@FramptonRoz) reported

    @FreeviewTV @NadineDorries @BBC 29/7/22 07.40hrs Freeview outages for TV & some total blackout throughout most of the UK - again!

  • Sarah_Lady Sarah Lady💙 (@Sarah_Lady) reported

    @BazTheHaff Yeah that’s the problem, we can’t usually get a picture properly with freeview so just stream all our telly through the apps.

  • Poocramps Poocramps McGinty 🏳️‍🌈♥️🧡💛💚💙💜🇺🇦 (@Poocramps) reported

    @MiserygutsPetty @SEAMONKEYOO7 @RyanJackMum Oh, I just realised- Freeview, not Freesat! My bad! Yeah, that'll be why the channels are different!

  • AJdeVries2 AJ de Vries (@AJdeVries2) reported

    I noticed whenever they show foreigners speaking Mandarin on Freeview TV28 it's always foreign men, some of whom are even married to Chinese women😒. But they never seem to show foreign women speaking the language, let alone with Chinese boyfriends/husbands.

    @kendo491 Any streaming service provided it isn't "live streaming" Gave up TV license years ago Have Freeview Netflix Britbox Acorn Paramount + Prime IMDB etc I share my subscriptions with family as most will allow 5 profiles over 4 separate devices Splits the cost
