    @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

  • PostDocHV Dr Michael Fanner (@PostDocHV) reported

    @Philips I bought a 50PUS7556/12 50inch 4K UHD LED SMART TV WiFi Dolby Atmos Freeview HD in December (registered it with you) & since the beginning, the TV does not do anything when pressing the remote (but the red light flashes per push) for up to 3/4 minutes. Please can u help?

  • VikShah Vik (yeah, that one) 💙 (@VikShah) reported

    @timglanfield Very much depends on the price of the service and whether there's anything else on the channel to justify it. If it was included with Prime or Netflix then yes, but maybe not if it's on something naff like BritBox. I'd rather it went to a Freeview channel such as E4.

  • WearsideWorrier Christopher Beard (@WearsideWorrier) reported

    @Forces_TV rapidly becoming one of the best channels on TV but alas it's no longer showing on the BT box because of weak signal in the Sunderland area so cannot watch, or record anything for catch-up later. Is this a transmitter issue? @bt_uk Still getting it via Freeview on TV

  • CheungSulty Sulty Cheung (@CheungSulty) reported

    @FreeviewTV Hi George, can't find DM (direct email) on freeview website help & support. For my postcode said that there is works in area. Returned now but smart TV is still no and freeview box is OK.

  • HjRobins Harry Robins (@HjRobins) reported

    @purpledVodka I hate branded clothing. It’s been a thing I’ve hated ever since I got a spongebob t-shirt for my 8th birthday for no reason, we could never even which spongebob on freeview

  • LumpyPete Lumpy Pete (@LumpyPete) reported

    @BBCThree One word. Shallow. Pandering to 'yoof' never works. To think 3 used to have great science and factual shows. Now look. And cramming it back on has messed up my freeview big time, so thanks for that BBC, never seem to get it right these days. #bbc3

  • JayThomasWAFC Jonathan (@JayThomasWAFC) reported

    @BazakeMedia @TreborRhurbarb He was watching the game on Freeview and not a subscription service. These people are leeches on society so need to be dissolved in salt.

  • FplAndSte Fpl&Ste (@FplAndSte) reported

    @FPL_CHEF We are with @virginmedia they want to put it up to over £65p/m for Internet and basic freeview channels. I have ordered a 5G hub from 3 I think £21p/m and will obviously just get a dodgy box to go with it which would allow me to cancel nowtv sky sports etc
