    @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

  • 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...😳

    So yeah, if you have Christian family who have been rabbitholed by conspiracy nonsense, be aware that there’s a pipeline of garbage being beamed out to God knows how many people on Freeview

  • Sophomania_101 Careful, I have Sophomania. (@Sophomania_101) reported

    @mettderk1 @ladbible Yep, if you don't wanna pay for their service use freeview etc, they're private company's you don't have to give them your cash, Why should I pay more because you don't wanna pay at all?

  • steveambrose16 steve ambrose (@steveambrose16) reported

    @rickburin London Live and Talking Pictures show London gems every day on freeview. many are b-movies that have never been shown on tv.

  • BohemianHarpy Bohemian Harpy KPSS (@BohemianHarpy) reported

    Once you've got netflix you realise how many utterly crap films there are, they're a waste of electricity. Even what I thought of as rubbish films when I only had freeview now look top 10%

  • tarasis Robert McGovern (@tarasis) reported

    @delilahdirk @jonrog1 I support when I can, and bypass / pirate when there are unknown / ridiculous delays for something to get the the UK for watching / Europe (BUT I will still watch when it does come to Europe so it gets the views - be it Disney, Paramount+, Amazon Freeview, or whoever)

  • joan_ant192 Joan Anthony (@joan_ant192) reported

    @IWishIWasFunnyy @PIMC66 @RoboScorpion Nothing to do with Momentum - they support Starmer Your choice not to watch a documentary by a British producer with British contributors on British media (freeview) overseen by Ofcom has nothing to do with Qatar That's just a convenient excuse to keep your fingers in your ears

  • simonhardwick Simon Hardwick (@simonhardwick) reported

    Main transmitters (FM/DAB/freeview) etc will most likely have backups but I remember in the big storm of 1987 that wasn’t a huge help, only one AM station (BBC local) managed to remain on air. Worth having some batteries for your radio next to your torch. /7

  • misskristinruth Kristin Plant (@misskristinruth) reported

    @MammaTort It is a streaming service- I think a £5 a month. Really should be on Freeview but I don't think the new series will be on yet.

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @SchloeJoe Hi Chloe, I am so very sorry to learn you are experiencing issues with your Freeview reception. The channels you have mentioned are still available on Freeview. Can you please DM us along with your full postcode and house name/number and we will look into this. Thank you

  • phoebemonkey Ruth Mutch 👩🏻‍🦽 (@phoebemonkey) reported

    I have a suspicion the Freeview engineer who came to “fix” my connection a while ago is responsible for this madness. He spent hours swopping around cables. I couldn’t check what he’d done because the cables are inaccessible to me (and the Virgin Hub was out of reach!)
