    @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

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

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

  • MartinC93414706 Martin (@MartinC93414706) reported from Lambeth, England

    @channel5_tv is the worst for catch up tv via your app or freeview. Just can’t find programmes sometimes. Trying to find Sally Lindsays posh sleepover. C4, itv and BBC never ever have a problem with. I give up with C5

  • Dante_Banks Danté Banks (@Dante_Banks) reported from Tottenham, England

    @tinytwink The poor shouldn't have anything they have to work for. Big screen TV - nope. Netflix - what's wrong with Freeview? Mobile phone - can't they walk to the phone box on the corner that was disconnected five years ago. They think if you're poor you should suffer or not be poor.

  • adrianatkins196 adrian atkins (@adrianatkins196) reported from Crayford, England

    Time for the BBC to close down the BBCNews channel as they always seem to put it on BBC1 at same time WHY as BBCNews is available on sky freesat and freeview you dont need it on BBC1

  • JEFFREY03296741 JEFFREY PHILLIPS (@JEFFREY03296741) reported from Brentford, England

    @TalkingPicsTV Hello. Watching at about 4.35 pm on Monday 24th the Sky TV picture was completely lost from your channel and went off air. All other channels were fine. Also okay on Freeview but I missed the end of the film. At 4.48 pm it is still without a, signal. What's up?

  • 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

  • maggieinlondon Maggie - wear a mask 💙🏳️‍🌈🌱 (@maggieinlondon) reported from Wandsworth, England

    With all this wall to wall coverage crap of a dead man by @skynews and @bbcnews Netflix and Freeview's viewing figures must be the highest they've ever been.

  • nessymon Nessy 😷 (@nessymon) reported from London, England

    @MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.

  • vjlorenzato Victoria Lorenzato (@vjlorenzato) reported from Brentford, England

    Catholic Twitter UK- help please! Anyone know of a Mass being broadcast on TV tomorrow ( not via internet) Lovely elderly lady has Freeview but no internet.... TIA!

  • 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.

  • XtopherCalvert Christmas Calvert (he/him) (@XtopherCalvert) reported from Poplar, England

    Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?

  • uk12345 ken (@uk12345) reported from Romford, England

    @bt_uk I got a problem it's not my fault and it's not BT issue I lost a lot of Freeview channels in my flat I went to no cancel and said you can have a dish because aerials are very bad in your area where you live we've had a lot of people coming to us about the same problem

  • summers_allan Allan Kempson (@summers_allan) reported from Romford, England

    @talkSPORT @Sjopinion10 That's a bad idea. Sky have rights to other sports too, so a netflix football service would be yet another thing to pay for if you like multiple sports. More football needs to be on freeview channels like BBC and ITV.

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

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

  • adrianatkins196 adrian atkins (@adrianatkins196) reported from Crayford, England

    @StevenNT @a516digital Just got it confirmed by my neighbour, he was told way back in February, hes still fuming mad about it, because he was canvassed away from sky by some **** who knew nothing about the freeview problems we have.

  • highwaylass Highwaylass (@highwaylass) reported

    It is turning into quite a successful week for “terrible films I love” popping up on niche Freeview channels. Tonight on channel 33 (if I can get it) - Matthew McConaghay vs a dragon that is mainly offscreen for what we can only assume were budget reasons. #reignoffire

  • CGVowles Christopher Vowles (@CGVowles) reported

    @kevinhollinrake Lots of radio stations still missing on Freeview TV in Kirkbymoorside—a bit of a nuisance when the DAB signal to DAB radio sets is virtually non-existent indoors. Fixing the transmitter doesn’t look like a simple task, though, given the size of the thing.

  • Greeneyedcurve Sarah Lee (@Greeneyedcurve) reported

    @ModsOfDiversity Oh don't I'm stuck in the bedroom with freeview, having covid sucks.

  • Chriscory78 Christopher Cory (@Chriscory78) reported

    @NOW well nowtv you are officially a shower off sh!t, promised a team leader will contact me regarding a complaint. About 8 months of over charges, 7 web chats, over 10 emails several tweets and messages and zero resolution, pi$$ up in a brewery honestly people stick to freeview

  • garyhaywardcom Gary Hayward (@garyhaywardcom) reported

    Can't wait for my new TV roof aerial to arrive. Nothing to do with the #Bilsdale outage; never been able to get all the Freeview channels with my current, ancient one. #BilsdaleFire

  • StevenNT Steven Jones (@StevenNT) reported

    @Mark56623345 @a516digital I'm currently a Sky Q customer as it's what I have at my new build apartment, Freeview and Freesat don't quite fit my uses but for as a basic level it's not too bad and fall back to Freeview when very severe rain hiders reception

  • merseytart Scott (@merseytart) reported

    Another hotel, another auto tune of the TV to get an up to date Freeview channel list. I should charge for this service.

  • Caro64733955 Caroline138 (@Caro64733955) reported

    @JeremyVineOn5 A paedetrician on GB News (freeview 236) last week said higher chance of under 18s dying of heart problems following jab than dying of Covid. If they’ve already had covid the chance of dying after jab even greater

  • Greeneyedcurve Sarah Lee (@Greeneyedcurve) reported

    @Sunofabeach69 Keep meaning to go for Dim Sum there, wanted to get to the Burnt Orange so we could eat outside whilst the weather was good as never been but now got covid so stuck in bloody bedroom with ****** freeview tv pmsl.
