    @Prof_Quiteamess Oo that’s clever. My Freeview recorder has broken :(

  • 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

  • garethrichmond5 Gareth Richmond (@garethrichmond5) reported from Bury, England

  • LunaForeverr Luna. 💙🌙 (@LunaForeverr) reported

    @Sylvie_124 I had a TV similar to this but in black, never watched VHS tapes since I was born as DVDs were replacing VHS, but I remember watching cartoons on DVD and on Freeview channels on bunny ears aerial before they got phased out too

  • Prof_Nostalgia Prof Nostalgia (@Prof_Nostalgia) reported

    @dougmcfarlane41 It's not fair to blame Freeview. They didn't set fire to the transmitter and they don't own or maintain it. Arquiva are doing their best but they being hampered by legal issues due to the fact that it's in an area of scientific interest. We have to be patient.

  • SortedVFR John Gauld #Rideon (@SortedVFR) reported

    @Spalders @MotoGP Limited service now available. Spoilers! Enjoyed the freeview broadcast on @ITVSport

  • dougmcfarlane41 Douglas Mcfarlane (@dougmcfarlane41) reported

    Angela "shall we try the TV" Me "why not" Yep no signal after 3 weeks (on 31st) #Freeview sucks strip #Freeview of it's broadcasting rights & whilst I'm at it, I asked #Freeview if they had a regulatory body but got no response any on Twitter know?

  • iandraper84 ian draper (@iandraper84) reported

    @1FCKobe No problem on the siorview/freeview combi box

  • sw1a0aa Gareth Milner (@sw1a0aa) reported

    @JustSteve68 Online service I’m afraid, not watched much Freeview/Sky over past few years unless I’m staying at my dads

  • AidanMcAleer Aidy McAleer (@AidanMcAleer) reported

    @Gombeen1 Was a bad time to find out the tv upstairs needed the freeview re-tuned and updated 😫😬

  • dougmcfarlane41 Douglas Mcfarlane (@dougmcfarlane41) reported

    So I've sent an email to #Freeview over to continuing no signal distribution in Teesside ie none for nearly 3 weeks as I asked for the contact details of the regulatory body to lodge a complaint, I did think of you asked they're obliged to supply it not ask you to email them wait

  • LE_Graeme Graeme P (@LE_Graeme) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV @valentepencil Here in the central region, during heavy rain most of my Freeview channels occasionally pixalate and lose the signal (though strangely not the BBC channels), yet my sister in the Anglia region only loses the BBC channels...

  • UKTVPlayHelp UKTV Play Help (@UKTVPlayHelp) reported
