  • MeurigRogers Morgan Barber-Rogers #FBPE melt and centrist dad (@MeurigRogers) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bethanjenkins Project Kangaroo became YouView. It wasn’t shut down because it was a ppv model - it was meant to be like an online Freeview. It was shut down because it was deemed unfair competition for private companies. Who are now all Americans.

  • GeorgeBaldwin14 George Baldwin (@GeorgeBaldwin14) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    And has been mentioned before, I and I'm sure many others would never have followed rugby without the Six Nations being free to watch and having it on freeview year after year

  • MichaelLeeLewi4 Michael Lee Lewis (@MichaelLeeLewi4) reported from Aberdare, Wales

    @kieranjameen Kieran cancel it, my sister did with hers and hasn't missed it, you can buy internet freeview boxes now and you can download all the apps onto them, no monthly payments then, just for what you choose to, much cheaper

  • IanCleverly06 Ian Cleverly (@IanCleverly06) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    Just an FYI @DMAX_UK but you've just showed Series 3 Ep10 of #Archer, when the Freeview EPG (and your website) has you showing the correct in order Ep 9. It has the same down for the Sat midnight showing (ie Ep 10 is listed in you'll show Ep 9)

  • dave_maydew Dave Maydew MW0DCM (@dave_maydew) reported from Tonyrefail, Wales

    @FreeviewAdvice @arqiva More disappointed, but I suppose I've got to accept it, after totally cutting the cord. I do have a tech question though. I'm using the Plex Media Server for Freeview, but the supplied EPG by Gracenote is terrible, is there a XML file of the one you use on the Android app

  • MT_Kilpatrick Michael Kilpatrick (@MT_Kilpatrick) reported

    Old Panasonic Freeview PVR no good for new ITV player and it had fault:, watch catch-up progs and it would occasionally freeze for 0.5secs. Bought a new Manhattan and it's just as crap - goes slow-mo for 2secs at random times. Why is everything such junk? @FreeviewTV

  • m_laverick Michelle Laverick Music 🤖 (@m_laverick) reported

    @tjz1100 @AppleTV @FreeviewTV I should scrapped my old setup (plasma + Humax freeview) and bought a smart telly. Instead like an idiot I bought a cheap Manhattan set top & an AppleTV. At least AppleTV was gift…

  • grundyonasunda1 Julie Grundy (@grundyonasunda1) reported

    @SonyUK Hi I have a SONY RDR HXD995 Freeview 250GB HDD DVD Recorder but it's stopped working. Can you help please?

  • FactsStomp Phil's Train and Retro Life (@FactsStomp) reported

    Is it me or is the sound quality on @BBCTwo US Elections programme rather poor? Watching on BBC Two HD on Freeview. And I don't mean one of the contributors not having a microphone.

  • MarkjMorelli Markj Morelli (@MarkjMorelli) reported

    @greatesthitsuk Never too early.....especially when there's a channel on freeview playing nonstop Christmas movies 🎅🎅

  • dannyboy7796 Daniel Jones (@dannyboy7796) reported

    @Wolf30331 @ItCorbyn @darrengrimes_ OK, so they're truly as bad as I've heard? Wow, I genuinely thought that would be against the rules on freeview broadcast media. Remember they banned RT, although that was down to sanctions to be fair. Good to know I was right to avoid them.

  • blogmywiki Giles Booth (@blogmywiki) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV Hi there - your channel seems to have vanished from my TV. Freeview, London area, strong line-of-site signal from Crystal Palace transmitter. It was there before. Retuning didn't work. Any ideas?

  • AlokAchary1 Kiran (@AlokAchary1) reported

    There's going to have to be extra support' Alex Chalk MP says Tory leadership candidate Rishi Sunak believes inflation must be tackled to help those struggling with the cost of living crisis 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube

  • TalkingPicsTV Talking Pictures TV (@TalkingPicsTV) reported

    @blogmywiki We are broadcasting loud and clear, Giles. We haven't moved. Have you tried retuning your box? If you still have problems you will need to speak to Freeview, there is a helpline: Freeview advice line on 03456 505050

    @Farmer_Mooo @Depheruk I don’t have a house phone, seeing as I’m hardly home I felt it an unnecessary bill, seeing as freeview channels are awful for children’s programs, forgive me for having Netflix and Disney+ (which is a lot cheaper than sky or virgin May I add!) what a small minded opinion u have!
