  • 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

  • PhilMcBoobs Philip McHale (@PhilMcBoobs) reported from Barnet, England

    @jonnyt78 Not at all. Was supposed to be awful except from some certain sections of the media. Some of the games were of freeview over here as well, I didn’t have a clue

  • 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

  • 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.

  • coulson3000 Hank Moody (@coulson3000) reported from Kensington, England

    I will never have normal freeview tv

  • 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

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • 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

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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

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

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

  • gaz_jarvis Gaz (@gaz_jarvis) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice any reason why I can’t get any bbc channels? Had issues with freeview for over a week now!

  • YorkieBkk LeedsYorkie (@YorkieBkk) reported

    @ashlucas75 I honestly have never even heard of it before. I think it was in Abu Dhabi the one I saw was just flicking through freeview channels and found it on there (free sports channel No 64) at silly o'clock when I could not sleep. Was def good fun though 👍

  • mashcore4mums fooly (@mashcore4mums) reported

    @xandypty AWS Elemental. We had a rackmount box at uni that was dedicated to sending a feed to AWS. We'd do a Degree Show broadcast which would go out on a web page hosted on AWS as well as Freeview DVB-T on a signal that only went as far as the Greenwich peninsula.

  • Unpaid_Carer Unpaid_Carer❣ (@Unpaid_Carer) reported

    Daughter's TV has switched off this morning! Changed the fuse in the plug thinking may just be that but nothing! Changed the HDMI cable! Nothing! Disconnected her console to show Freeview TV, still nothing! FFS! 🤬🤬 Short term solution - she uses TV in lounge in her bedroom

  • angelneptustar angie (@angelneptustar) reported

    @Gina09768111 @BorisJohnson @euronews Will check if #Euronews is on freeview. Because right now EU in much much worse state than us poor people, they have no vaxes , nor are ppl going to get them. Holland in lockdown, France health system buckling, ditto Germany Hungary, Italy, et al!

  • epwhamilton Edward Hamilton (@epwhamilton) reported

    @SamsungUK @SamsungTV What's the situation with Freeview? Do your tvs support the app at least? TVPlus doesn't look very good in comparison

  • swampy_kiwi Shawn (@swampy_kiwi) reported

    Is it just me or does Amazon prime video have a terrible UI? It feels worse that the freeview apps. Plus some stuff is free some is extra money?

  • JohnHuwEvans2 H-yule Evans. Aitch NOT haitch!!!! (@JohnHuwEvans2) reported

    @just_j0 NO as I only have Freeview. I don't intend getting any subscription service even if I could justify the cost. I am tempted to tweet about the 109th viewing of TBBT or HIMYM though.

  • marktheman2010 mark (@marktheman2010) reported

    @jamesmartinchef You think that's bad Carl checkout the food channel on Freeview, Tubbs is on nearly ALL day.
