    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

  • 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.

    Hello @Channel4 Do you have a Channel 4 HD + 1 on Freeview? Watching the F1 on C4+1 and really noticing the poor resolution.

  • BigWatchLover BigWatchLover (@BigWatchLover) reported

    My ITV has gone funny - briefly - twice. Anyone else?! Thank heavens I have STV and Freeview, if it’s an ITV or Sky problem! #ENGSCO #ITVFootball

  • WhizzoUK Jason Wilson (@WhizzoUK) reported

    The picture quality on ITV4 on Freeview for Ukraine v Austria is worse than some dodgy football streams I've obviously never watched.

    @PaddyTaylor @itvhub Hi Paddy, So sorry you are still experiencing issues with your Freeview reception. Please start a DM to allow us to look into this further for you. Do you require the full frequencies for manual tuning? Kind Regards Melissa

    Just got some co-axile connecters for my #freeview problem modern ones are not as wide, so they don't work, wish I still had that box of them I had in 1985 but they got lost when we moved house back then. #OhDear

    @GBNEWS The quality of your signal on Freeview is appalling -any chance you can go HD ?<

  • hughster Hughster (@hughster) reported

    @vwcampervanaldr They've been paying for ads on it from day one. And no, I don't have issues with Skwawkbox/Canary because—and again, the TLDR of "poor analogy" applies—they're not Freeview TV news channels, not supposedly Ofcom regulated & not funded/promoted/defended by the government.

  • aging_hacker JD (@aging_hacker) reported

    @GBNEWS .. Can you fix the sound levels on freesat and freeview please , your station is significantly quieter than others, after watching you, flipping to other channels blows my head off. Also studio sound like someone hasn't removed the plastic bag from around the new microphone 😡 .

  • lardychap Gareth Evans (@lardychap) reported

    @matsyendrasana I tried freeview but my aerial is too **** I can only pick up one channel on it

  • BrexitFoxy The People's Foxy 🦊 (@BrexitFoxy) reported

    @CraggsLewis @tvlicensing @tvlicensingnews If it's the live stream, as it's also a Freeview broadcast channel then yeah you need a TV licence. If you're just watching catch-up on-demand clips, then you don't need one. The law is stupid, but that's the way it is at the moment.
