  • Tommy_M_E_J Tom Jordan (@Tommy_M_E_J) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @njvns That’s so shit. It’s literally called freeview and yet it’s not free

  • AStrangerJ A.j. Stranger #UTAG (@AStrangerJ) reported from Bromley, England

    On the Freeview “REALLY” channel at 9pm, “Who Killed Jeffery Epstein?”. I’ve never seen it before, but I bet the answers not Jeffrey Epstein.

  • omotforest david sinfield #pssc (@omotforest) reported from West Molesey, England

    To be honest, when you've removed the dependency of other real time tv, i cant see many people chipping in. Many will be paying just to watch their subscription service or Freeview.

  • Beige29 DarkBeige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    Now I have the truly truly shit @EE freeview package (literally the worst selection of channels on earth but boy is it cheap broadband) I only watch the main 5 channels or SVOD. W, Dave, ITV2 etc are dead to me

  • crazycol Colin Wiseman (@crazycol) reported from Ealing, England

    @stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.

  • PlexNetflix Martin Phillp 🔶 (@PlexNetflix) reported from Camberwell, England

    My broadband has gone down, so stuck watching QVC on Freeview.

  • shoxtl2 Carl (@shoxtl2) reported from Croydon, England

    @MyHydeHome @SCCIAlphatrack Not even sure how that's possible there's no record anyways over the weekend we lost signal for the communal aerial it has become very weak very pixelated can pick up the Freeview HD channels

  • fishinthedark1 fishinthedark (@fishinthedark1) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

  • niklasRen Nik Rahmel (@niklasRen) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @Stephen_Neal Good shout! If we just take the Freeview/Freesat ones, we get to ten, excluding the National ones: 1) BBC One 2) BBC Two 3) BBC Four 4) CBBC 5) CBeebies 6) BBC News 7) BBC Parliament 8) Dave 9) Drama 10) Yesterday But they aren’t licence fee funded, so don’t help the argument.

  • budgie Lee 'Budgie' Barnett (@budgie) reported from Richmond, England

    @DrRacheal @FreeviewTV When I had problems with Freeview, I found their helpline - when I eventually managed to get through to someone - very helpful. Took me step-by-step through the stuff I could check and solved it for me.

  • Beige29 Beige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    @loudouglas75 I have such shit freeview I only have itv2+1

  • Marmalord Marmalord (the) (@Marmalord) reported from Epsom and Ewell District, England

    @itvhub Humax FVP-4000T 1TB Freeview Set Top Box Recorder, and having to sign in more or less every time is making us all dislike Martin Freeman

  • daguvernor tommy harper (@daguvernor) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia once again trying to contact virgin media is a no go a proper waste of time contract has run out trying to cancel they have put the money up to £60 a month for basically 2 freeview boxes I have cancelled my direct debit which is due on the 7 april what a scam😡

  • EranE1980 Eran Edry (@EranE1980) reported from Camden Town, England

    @FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

  • RegenerateAndy Andy Smith (@RegenerateAndy) reported from Wandsworth, England

    Channel ‘Pick’ on freeview. Never heard of it before but grateful for it tonight #chelsea

  • JensFallesen Jens Fallesen (@JensFallesen) reported from Hounslow, England

    @leksi_p Correct. If you do not have Freeview, Sky or Virgin (or any other cable service), you should not need to pay if you never watch it.

  • themib Martin Bentley, AKA Martin Bentley (@themib) reported from London, England

    Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

  • Scare158Steve Scarebear (@Scare158Steve) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @bt_uk Thanks for the help. I spoke to freeview, tried a few things which didn't work but i contacted your TV help and after doing a few basic things somehow it appears to be working now! Very Strange. Tks

  • SophFigueira95 Sophie. ⚓💙 (@SophFigueira95) reported

    Usually use my actual Freeview but think the temperamental weather is causing a few breaking up issues. 🙄😒 Definitely think I'm in a bit of a delay. #BeyondParadise

  • FrannyJeffers72 FJ72 🇬🇧 (@FrannyJeffers72) reported

    @ramsay_wmramsay @MattSTKS @CraigMurrayOrg I would prefer it was on Sky or freeview TV. The issue here is with UEFA and the SFA as they are in charge of the TV rights. The UK or Scottish Government have no control over it.

  • a516digital Mike (@a516digital) reported

    @markisawimp @garyb007 Freeview support 03456 505050

  • metahealer_54 Cryptekk 亮 (@metahealer_54) reported

    How far do you expect this £150 disability cost of living payment to go? - #KayBurley says this one-off payment comes on top of other support for those with disabilities. 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube

  • pumpkingirl89 MelissaW🌸🩸 (@pumpkingirl89) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice My mum lives at LL11 6UN and since yesterday her and her neighbours have had trouble picking up the majority of the freeview channels. Is there any work in the area that has caused this?

  • damoxl Damo (@damoxl) reported

    @Mark_P0x0n @LucyMPowell But I might want to watch something on freeview that requires adverts & a properly costed budget to fund (not BBC) So why should I pay for the BBC when their model is at best a tax on live TV of any sort? This is where the BBC falls down in the modern era, it's simply outdated

  • peb1986 Paul Byatt (@peb1986) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam how do I cancel my sky box that I only have for freeview so I can get a new box as this one is no longer working

  • 1Spookybooks Spookybooks (@1Spookybooks) reported

    @newt_kiters I guess when I get round to actually get sky, I won’t need a dish or a set-top box or anything. I’m assuming it will come straight through the TV through the Internet. The trouble is I don’t watch a lot of TV I’m usually listening to music or out walking. Only Freeview

  • KaihatsuYT Kaihatsu (@KaihatsuYT) reported

    Personally, I'm not particularly bothered by it all. I've not had a particular interest in Pokémon for a while, but I never watched the anime much as a kid. I never saw it on TV in the UAE and it never seemed to be on Freeview in the UK on a regular schedule either.

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @Vee2011Vee Hi, there. Sorry to hear that you're having problems receiving Freeview but if you can DM us your postcode along with house number or name, we can check for any known issues in the area and advise from there. Fraser
