  @bt_uk Thanks for the help. I spoke to freeview, tried a few things which didn't work but i contacted your TV help and after doing a few basic things somehow it appears to be working now! Very Strange. Tks

  @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

  @PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

  Channel ‘Pick’ on freeview. Never heard of it before but grateful for it tonight #chelsea

  To be honest, when you've removed the dependency of other real time tv, i cant see many people chipping in. Many will be paying just to watch their subscription service or Freeview.

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

  @DrRacheal @FreeviewTV When I had problems with Freeview, I found their helpline - when I eventually managed to get through to someone - very helpful. Took me step-by-step through the stuff I could check and solved it for me.

  @virginmedia once again trying to contact virgin media is a no go a proper waste of time contract has run out trying to cancel they have put the money up to £60 a month for basically 2 freeview boxes I have cancelled my direct debit which is due on the 7 april what a scam😡

  Colin Wiseman (@crazycol) reported 33 minutes ago from Ealing, England

  @stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.

  Catholic Twitter UK- help please! Anyone know of a Mass being broadcast on TV tomorrow ( not via internet) Lovely elderly lady has Freeview but no internet.... TIA!

  My broadband has gone down, so stuck watching QVC on Freeview.

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

• 
  Jens Fallesen (@JensFallesen) reported 47 minutes ago from Hounslow, England

  @leksi_p Correct. If you do not have Freeview, Sky or Virgin (or any other cable service), you should not need to pay if you never watch it.

• 
  DarkBeige (@Beige29) reported 48 minutes ago 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

  Tom Jordan (@Tommy_M_E_J) reported 51 minutes ago from Hammersmith, England

  @njvns That’s so shit. It’s literally called freeview and yet it’s not free

• 
  A.j. Stranger #UTAG (@AStrangerJ) reported 52 minutes ago from Bromley, England

  On the Freeview “REALLY” channel at 9pm, “Who Killed Jeffery Epstein?”. I’ve never seen it before, but I bet the answers not Jeffrey Epstein.

  @itvhub Humax FVP-4000T 1TB Freeview Set Top Box Recorder, and having to sign in more or less every time is making us all dislike Martin Freeman

  Nik Rahmel (@niklasRen) reported 57 minutes ago from Wandsworth, England

  @Stephen_Neal Good shout! If we just take the Freeview/Freesat ones, we get to ten, excluding the National ones: 1) BBC One 2) BBC Two 3) BBC Four 4) CBBC 5) CBeebies 6) BBC News 7) BBC Parliament 8) Dave 9) Drama 10) Yesterday But they aren’t licence fee funded, so don’t help the argument.

  ❌Johnny Downes (@JohnnyDownes) reported 6 minutes ago

  Watching #GBNews on FreeView 236 yesterday there was a slight delay between the sound and the picture. Hope they can fix that. Otherwise... Excellent.

• 
  Trevor Howden (@TrevHead10) reported 8 minutes ago

  @vipeventdriver @GBNEWS While the picture and sound quality was a bit low, freeview west Yorkshire had no sync issues. I wonder if someone to do with the London transmission doesn't want GB news on air

• 
  Donna Trump (@climpy1980) reported 8 minutes ago

  @JohnHopkins_ @StopFundingHate So they still took it if that's the case. Are we going to cancel sky, virgin and Freeview companies for giving them a channel for their platform.

• 
  Humvat Virit (@Bound4Hollywood) reported 14 minutes ago

  @GBNEWS I just tried 515 on Sky and it's an HD channel, which means I, as a satellite dish customer, have to pay extra for. Tried retuning the freeview channels and there was no 216. Conspiracy theory anyone?

• 
  Postal Taxis (@PostalTaxis) reported 14 minutes ago

  @GBNEWS need to get rid of black background, not only because it’s dreary as ****, but it encodes terribly on the low bitrate stream they’ve got on freeview. Also, there’s no contrast when everybody is wearing dark clothes.

• 
  Jon (@jonthemusic) reported 16 minutes ago

  @telday1 @Jayduck16803727 @GBNEWS I don't pay Sky a penny but previous occupant left box. It is not a subscription channel and I am watching it there now. It is only SD on Freeview and a few issues with the signal strength there.

• 
  Lemonhunny (Lesley) 💉💉💙💙 (@Lemonhunny) reported 17 minutes ago

  @TVRav Never mind the audio sync...on my TV (yes, I just remembered to go look!), I can't even get the picture. Every Freeview channel is fine (Sky news on right now), but GB News is just pixellated, squeaky mess.

• 
  Grant Rivers 🇬🇧 (@SnowAndBeach) reported 17 minutes ago

  @JoeChapman87 @GBNEWS Freeview 236, you may need to retune your tv. A few teething problems as it only began airing tonight but it’s a different take on news which is something I was looking for. #GBNews

• 
  chris (@chrislondon254) reported 23 minutes ago

  @GBNEWS A few sound / voice / picture sync issues watching on freeview.

• 
  Lemonhunny (Lesley) 💉💉💙💙 (@Lemonhunny) reported 24 minutes ago

  @JasonPedlow @HelenSalmon2 I can't pick it up on my Freeview TV, and not interested enough to know if it's available on anything else I have. But seriously? First guest was Nigel Farage? Yes, my lack of signal was definitely telling me to avoid it.
