  • 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

  • Northern_Steve Steve, just Steve (@Northern_Steve) reported from Manchester, England

    @mickmcfc1 I'll never know. I've pulled the cable out. BBC Parliament on freeview only from now on. They talk absolute bollocks but rarely about football. I'm in!

    I love these Freeview updates. Each time I rescan the television I seem to lose additional channels! I'm down to QVC, Free Sports and That's 70s and it's only 3pm!

  • ManuHindustan Manu Mohanan (@ManuHindustan) reported

    @Argos_Online ordered LG 43 Inch 43UP75006LF Smart 4K UHD HDR LED Freeview TV - 929/7601 just now from Argos. Money got deductef from my bank, but order not showing in argos website or app. Pls help

  • JoeClitherow Joe Clitherow (@JoeClitherow) reported

    @Agar5588 @NadineDorries I think that's different to the satellite source being taken down. Sky or Freeview could have acted unilaterally to block broadcast, whereas satellite block removed the option

  • TheINCrowdBpool The IN Crowd (Blackpool) (@TheINCrowdBpool) reported

    That's Freeview for us poor people

  • PATVOne1 P.A.T.V. Scunthorpe (@PATVOne1) reported

    @JillStuart17 While it is currently under investigation by Ofcom to decide whether it has broken the impartiality rule, RT still holds a valid licence to broadcast, so cannot be removed by Freeview (or Sky), otherwise they'd be the ones breaking Ofcom's code.

  • JoeClitherow Joe Clitherow (@JoeClitherow) reported

    @Agar5588 @NadineDorries Isn't the Freeview a satellite relay broadcast though? I think RT is uploaded to satellite from Moscow, then downloaded to consumer satellite dishes and relay stations for terrestrial broadcast, e.g. via Freeview So removing from the satellite should also take down Freeview

  • GEORDIEJOHN1982 NUFC1892 (@GEORDIEJOHN1982) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice it is an extremely rare board that I have and these freeview and catch-up apps were already on the board for people to test the apps and develop them for that tv. But the good news is that it is not a problem with freeview play itself. I will let you know what happens today.

  • robinjuste Robin Juste Emery (@robinjuste) reported

    @HobbyMakerTV My Freesat TV is showing Jewellery Maker on channel 807. Do I need to retune, or are you having distribution issues? Freeview is fine.

  • MediaBoyUK Media Boy UK (@MediaBoyUK) reported

    If anyone is reply to me CAN you tell me what network you are on? Freeview (only got RT in SD), Sky HD, Freeview HD or Freesat. Thank you

  • Woolychops Mrs W. Chops (@Woolychops) reported

    @missy_molly_mol Quite possibly one of the worst freeview channels available.

  • FixatedOn Steve... (@FixatedOn) reported

    @yorkyqui It will likely never hit freeview, it's an Apple TV show, exclusively on Apple TV. If you want to watch it on a laptop or tablet I'm happy to share my login. My tv has Apple TV as an app, like Iplayer...
