    @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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

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

  • 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

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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!

  • 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

  • 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😡

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

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

  • 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

  • PrentonTommy Tommy H 🦁🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 #BackBoris (@PrentonTommy) reported

    @Gambol_Putty @jimharringtonkk An Internet phone costs under £20. I never get into any contract where I haven't planned forward for that amount of time. No one needs Sky there's Freeview.or a £25 firestick

  • sweeney_tj sweeneytj 💙 (@sweeney_tj) reported

    @AngharaDavies @Angharad_78 I had a service for UK freeview TV but didn’t renew this month because it was expensive and kept dropping the connection.

  • dozecat007 Boris D'Burger-Zilla (@dozecat007) reported

    Why is the 30 year old (bad) movie Jurassic Park on at least one Freeview channel every single week (sometimes several times per week?) #r4today

  • andythelodge andy (@andythelodge) reported from Clifton, England

    @1doublehandful @RacingTV Thought it went off FREEVIEW last year Sent me a @amazon firestick which is nothing but trouble

  • a516digital Mike (@a516digital) reported

    @isleofmanbbctv @hischeekiness But not (yet) from an Isle of Man transmitter. If you are *currently* receiving CBeebies HD on Freeview, you're picking up a signal from the UK, as COM7 does not broadcast on any of the island's transmitters. CBBC HD on the other hand does, it's on the PSB3 multiplex.

  • mrsgaius Mary White (@mrsgaius) reported

    @PolygoniaSpec @Samanth22356123 Ah. The Freeview is so awful here, you can barely watch it. It's really noticeable with 'Who wants to be a Millionaire', where the TV is so fuzzy you cannot actually read the 4 answers.

  • Cidergender Ciderboy (@Cidergender) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice cannot get Freeview sports channel help

  • LordWobbly Lord Wobbly 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@LordWobbly) reported

    @fmdiscr @BeckettUnite It should never have been temporary though. Many people need that money desperately. The jubilee nonsense (and its extraordinary cost) was completely unnecessary and could've easily been dealt with as a one off event at Westminster Abbey, televised on a single freeview channel.

  • SvenRufus Sven Rufus (@SvenRufus) reported

    @nikkibayley I recorded it ages ago - it was on Talking Pictures TV, a little Freeview start up. They get some brilliant older films that I never see anywhere else.

  • roasty88 Ryan McVeigh (@roasty88) reported

    @WWEVacant @AEW I believe they are comparing Dynamite on itv4 (Freeview) to WWE on BT sport (paid subscription service). I would like to see a comparison of AEW to WWE shows on Freeview and see how they compare.
