  • Like47 Les Dawson and me #JC4PM2019 #LabourActivist (@Like47) reported from Manchester, England

    @gary_worden @cjssydney @cptcapitalg @FrogAlaPeche Poor people either don't have a TV or watch freeview.

  • PaulW_1 Paul Williams✈️ (@PaulW_1) reported from Sale, England

    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

    Cobblers from Freeview I replaced all cables power and internet and took down all the accessories such as dvd player so all we have is basic box and television all new but it even blew out the satellite and I spent 1/2 hour reset It is Not our Cables it is Broadcast Aerial Hacker

  • Ajkiwi AJ Johnson (@Ajkiwi) reported

    Wait. I've been talking to workmates, & it turns out that people who don't have vodafoneTV (RIP) or old mysky: (a) watch freeview LIVE with ADVERTS (wtf) (b) or ONLY watch things on streaming (c) and just accept they can't record+rewind TV (d) use an aerial or sat dish. REALLY?

  • haydenraw Hayden Raw (@haydenraw) reported

    Would be cool if @vodafoneNZ did a software update on the VodafoneTV units just prior to them being **** down that turned them into an untethered Freeview/internet TV hub.

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    @CrabbyValiant @back_the_BBC That's starting to change: Anyone with a Sky Glass TV no longer needs to turn over, as the HD service is fully regionalised. Virgin Media and iPlayer users are up next for the upgrade. Sky, Freesat and Freeview due to be upgraded before the end of 2022.

  • LaughtonAlan Alan Bromley (@LaughtonAlan) reported

    @freesat_tv The problem is that the new FreeSat boxes are CRAP. We gave up on ours and just watch Freeview

  • OsullivanUk Mike O'Sullivan (@OsullivanUk) reported

    @googlenesthelp Hey Google... No, nothing like that at all. Just an old (Humax) Freeview recorder, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and a (non-smart) Panasonic blu-ray player. All powered off at time of issue. Couple of other people raised it as issue a few days ago on the Google TV forum also.

  • sb00020 Sam Brett (@sb00020) reported

    @LGUK @Cynic1311 What a joke. So the 2019 and 2021 models support freeview play and all4, but the 2020s don’t. Congratulations on losing a customer and I’ll be sure not to recommend LG

  • mycatisjack Jack Is My Cat (@mycatisjack) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice The catchup part of freeview keeps asking about accepting the terms and conditions. I press that button which then returns me to the home screen. Basically I cannot get bbc, itv, channel4 or 5, etc catchup programmes. Please help

  • intelcymru (@intelcymru) reported

    I have reviewed #ChristmasTelevision #Freeview & it is the most abysmal depressing load of old crap I can remember. I doubt I would watch even 12 hours of it in 14days Thank God for DVD'S,books & being busy

  • eattrashgofast oíche howl-na 🎃 (@eattrashgofast) reported

    @WesleyDolan i like to pore over all the tv film guides in detail, see what's on saorview, what's on freeview, what's on channels i have to tune in, the itvs, channel4s, channel5s, then finally switch on the tv to where blazing saddles has been on for 10 minutes and flop down in front of that
