    @traceyfromrasen @Kavismate @SkySportsRacing @RacingTV My Freeview signal can be hopeless at best even connected to Wi-fi but the HDMI/laptop combo works well when the cat isn’t jumping on it !

  • uk12345 ken (@uk12345) reported from Romford, England

    @nowtvhelp I still got my old with the built-in Freeview TV all that still work and I do I'll come back to you because I transferred my account to BT I Wish I Never now if that box doesn't work I have to buy my NOW TV stick from you?

  • Davidp1103 David-19 (@Davidp1103) reported from Gravesend, England

    @TalkTalk It would be nice if you could reduce or remove a £40 charge for an engineer who called but made no inspection of equipment, explained that Freeview channels had been altered; a fact that your customer services were not aware of, but should have known.

  • LexFuturus LexFuturus (@LexFuturus) reported from Longfield, England

    Terrible streaming quality via YouTube! @btsport should have made it freeview #UCLfinal

  • uk12345 ken (@uk12345) reported from Romford, England

    @bt_uk I got a problem it's not my fault and it's not BT issue I lost a lot of Freeview channels in my flat I went to no cancel and said you can have a dish because aerials are very bad in your area where you live we've had a lot of people coming to us about the same problem

  • nessymon Nessy 😷 (@nessymon) reported from London, England

    @MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.

  • adrianatkins196 adrian atkins (@adrianatkins196) reported from Crayford, England

    @Forces_TV hi guys having a few problems with your freeview picture in London it freezes or breaks up had it since Friday

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

  • adrianatkins196 adrian atkins (@adrianatkins196) reported from Crayford, England

    Time for the BBC to close down the BBCNews channel as they always seem to put it on BBC1 at same time WHY as BBCNews is available on sky freesat and freeview you dont need it on BBC1

  • StevenGothard Steven Gothard (@StevenGothard) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @S66Cams @ellabellajolie @sashalouise__x I've lost studio 66 on freeview can you help please

  • themib Martin Bentley, AKA Martin Bentley (@themib) reported from London, England

    Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

  • summers_allan Allan Kempson (@summers_allan) reported from Romford, England

    @talkSPORT @Sjopinion10 That's a bad idea. Sky have rights to other sports too, so a netflix football service would be yet another thing to pay for if you like multiple sports. More football needs to be on freeview channels like BBC and ITV.

  • Davidp1103 Davidp (@Davidp1103) reported from Gravesend, England

    @Complyorcry @Back_Two_Mee To @TalkTalk they are okay but the broadband is not a good as VM but it's okay; it cut the monthly bill in half. I have since dropped their tv service and bought a freeview recorder. Monthly bill for broadband/phone £38

  • algingersmith Alan C. Smith (@algingersmith) reported

    @ElinorCooper27 @lav25th @MartinSLewis A basic problem for changing the system is that current Freeview tech is not compatible with subscriptions. You'd have to replace all boxes..currently a huge chunk of viewers using them. That idea will have to wait for next gen of tech.

  • dantejackal Dantejackal (@dantejackal) reported

    @xRedFlare It is y it goes Freeview SD later after the 3 month timeframe :) I don't wanna alienate those who support:)

  • cliquetrack Stirling Silliphant (@cliquetrack) reported

    Lockdown has meant that I’m regularly watching BBC / ITV for the first time in 15 years. Not as bad as I’d feared, though itv overdoes the game shows a bit. The tv is the only company I have during the day. Freeview is really useful.

  • MartinC93414706 Martin (@MartinC93414706) reported from Lambeth, England

    @channel5_tv is the worst for catch up tv via your app or freeview. Just can’t find programmes sometimes. Trying to find Sally Lindsays posh sleepover. C4, itv and BBC never ever have a problem with. I give up with C5

  • grim_fandango The Teletext Archaeologist (@grim_fandango) reported

    @illarterate @TeletextR @that_other_Carl It wasn’t too bad on Freeview but it was terrible on Sky. Really, really slow

  • AndrewC47126578 Andrew Cole (@AndrewC47126578) reported

    @hauchmagandy @GBNEWS The idea of an unbiased and independent news channel has never been tried in the UK. I'm interested in seeing how it looks... but not at the expense of having Sky, a Freeview box or paying the BBC **** tax.

  • rebecca_ryder21 Rebecca Ryder (@rebecca_ryder21) reported

    @fiona_skywalker @Zeppelinlover1 @CBeebiesHQ Ah I never had a setup box I had an old sony TV with Freeview built in

  • gazpunch Gary Phillips 💙 (@gazpunch) reported

    Well my Freeview signal is still knackered so this is a bit 💩 I can't watch LOTSW 😖

  • TheRizkeyG Riz (@TheRizkeyG) reported

    @straymoose101 channel 32 freeview .. paramount network ( although they are running TEAM Airwolf .. which is airwolf but a team ... to be honest i never remember seeing it ? )

  • Baseley09 John Baseley (@Baseley09) reported

    @virginmedia Hello thanks for the response, my bill is due to increase to £58 for essentially freeview and a 100mb line. I have tried to cancel or renegotiate but been let down so far in my actions. Kind regards.
