  • annmurphy_wigan Ann Murphy (@annmurphy_wigan) reported from Wigan, England

    @FreeviewAdvice Well, after waiting 2 weeks for a Freeview engineer we are told we need a new aerial. Also, they can’t help us because we have Sky! So they change Winter Hill and now we have to pay. Why didn’t they say this 3 weeks ago...😳

  • 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

  • m7leicauser Andy Barton (@m7leicauser) reported from Comberbach, England

    @FreeviewTV Thanks to Dan at Freeview, the aerial-out retune x2 seems to have cured the problem. 👍

  • DavidSwindells1 David Swindells (@DavidSwindells1) reported from Macclesfield, England

    Hope we don't get this warm weather very often.#freeview doesn't work because of the high atmospheric pressure apparently. How am I going to watch #loveisland

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

    @GPv3000 As long as major international tournaments are on freeview it will never die in the UK.

  • frankensteirer yoo hoo (@frankensteirer) reported

    @Ofcom @mother_pukka @NicenNeetz we have to lose freeview channels to make other companies richer ee offerings was poor as it was losing more channels more repeats why are regulators doing this? If its not you letting bt overpopulate openreach lines it's other regulators letting energy prices disgustingly soar

  • HybridProphecy Jack° 🎗 (@HybridProphecy) reported

    @anee1a Probably 50% of the foreign films I've seen I saw for the first time on Film4, a Freeview channel lol As long as you're able to read subtitles easily, it shouldn't be a problem.

  • stormy_uk stormyuk (@stormy_uk) reported

    @MarkSanderson52 @FreeviewTV Agreed. Remove the dross channels and retain HD services. We are not using CRTs and it's no longer the 1990s. It's 2022 and the premier news channel on Freeview looks as bad as Sky News in SD now. Unwatchable unless you want to go blind. Thankfully BBC News HD is still on Astra.

  • AlfredInWS Alfred- BGDCMC IS BACK!🌴 ☀️ (@AlfredInWS) reported

    @Classicbritcom @Forces_TV I heard a lot about it and that it was broadcasting classic series I was interested in, but it never appeared on Freeview in my area

  • lookoutwales2 Gareth Joy (@lookoutwales2) reported

    @eljonesuk *faints* P.S. Sorry to see FreeSports close on Freeview (even though they always cut out your stuff on the rugby league replays!)

  • MarkSanderson52 Mark Sanderson (@MarkSanderson52) reported

    @FreeviewTV Freeview the service you have to retune ever 6 week, pathetic. Loads of channels should have gone before the HD, like ITV 2+,3+,4+ itvbe for start

  • AmigaBoing AmigaBoing.net Blog (@AmigaBoing) reported

    @ukdtt @Forces_TV Amazing how many are moaning over the closure of ForcesTV - Do they not realise there are DVD's of almost all the series they watched on that channel? Close Freeview down completely, move to Freesat which will always have more channel capacity anyway, Freeview has become a JOKE

  • RhysAddison Rhys (@RhysAddison) reported

    @Ofcom Who’s stupid idea was it to get rid of BBC news HD on Freeview it’s 2022 and we have to watch news in grainy SD

  • dave1966uk dave1966uk 🇪🇺 🇬🇧 (@dave1966uk) reported

    @FreeviewTV Now next to useless. Lost CBS Drama to RealityXtra which is not available now in my area. Freeview says use Internet - newsflash - not everyone in the countryside has useable Internet. BT quoted me £143,000 .... No mobile signal either.
