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

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

  • 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.

  • EranE1980 Eran Edry (@EranE1980) reported from Camden Town, England

    @FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

  • flowergirl_lon Sam (Flower Girl) Jennings (@flowergirl_lon) reported from Croydon, England

    @GeorgeBollands @gemoore83 @BBCSport Ok… I have Now tv so don’t think I can get that but I’ll have a look. My regular freeview is crap as I don’t have an aerial, only have internet streamed TV.

  • LILBUBBLE1 Bu88ble (@LILBUBBLE1) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @FreeviewAdvice I’ve been experiencing a lot of poor quality imaging/interruptions of my freeview in my area, Chingford, London. Also I’ve been able to DM you and I’m not sure why the system is not enabling it. It doesn’t bring up your company when I try

  • XtopherCalvert Christmas Calvert (he/him) (@XtopherCalvert) reported from Poplar, England

    Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?

  • Beige29 DarkBeige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    Now I have the truly truly shit @EE freeview package (literally the worst selection of channels on earth but boy is it cheap broadband) I only watch the main 5 channels or SVOD. W, Dave, ITV2 etc are dead to me

  • 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

  • Dante_Banks Danté Banks (@Dante_Banks) reported from Tottenham, England

    @tinytwink The poor shouldn't have anything they have to work for. Big screen TV - nope. Netflix - what's wrong with Freeview? Mobile phone - can't they walk to the phone box on the corner that was disconnected five years ago. They think if you're poor you should suffer or not be poor.

  • coulson3000 Hank Moody (@coulson3000) reported from Kensington, England

    I will never have normal freeview tv

  • 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

  • shoxtl2 Carl (@shoxtl2) reported from Croydon, England

    @MyHydeHome @SCCIAlphatrack Not even sure how that's possible there's no record anyways over the weekend we lost signal for the communal aerial it has become very weak very pixelated can pick up the Freeview HD channels

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • Matt3590 Matthew Henderson (@Matt3590) reported

    @Jimboblue6 Call them and tell them you want to cancel your license as you only stream programming, nothing live inc. Freeview. Get rid of all aerials. They'll check in once in a while to confirm your still not watching live tv.

  • Jontyscot25 John Quinn (@Jontyscot25) reported

    Renew your mobile phone contract airtime/new phone or help pay your grandparents energy bill ? Freeview or Sky? Etc., etc.,

  • brianwinteruk Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported from Hipswell, England

    @danmooreradio @a516digital On Freeview bandwidth is an issue. But also still a fair number of SD only boxes out there.

  • Beardy359 Stephen Lister 💙 (@Beardy359) reported

    My Youview box has packed up. No major problem, but it was convenient to have all my streaming apps (more or less) in one place with one controller. Am I better off buying an android box or a smart tv with all built in? I have an Amazon stick but no Freeview on it. Thoughts?

  • dithespy50 Diane Hackney (@dithespy50) reported

    Just a warning to folk - don't buy a @Manhattan_TV freeview box. The call centre staff are very rude, unhelpful and just talk over you. Their equipment is not fit for purpose!!

  • PBfromDevon Paul Bennett (@PBfromDevon) reported

    @BBCNews Oh poor thing diddums! When I was 20 you didn't have "Freeview" or a single channel to watch for nothing. And you went out when you could afford it. That encouraged you to work to better yourself. Zero sympathy.

  • jense5p Jensen (@jense5p) reported

    @NetflixUK Lower resolution than Freeview HD 😑

  • lynne_drummond Lynne Drummond 💙 (@lynne_drummond) reported

    @fliceverett My first TV was a cast off of my Grandma which was B&W and for many years had a dodgy tube so that peoples feet appeared above their heads. I bought my second TV ( colour) from Boots in 1984 and only bought my current one because I was having problems with the Freeview box !
