    @virtualash tell your boys your TV quality is poor on Freeview. Whale's head will not look fuzzy. This can't be allowed to happen.

    @itvnews I complained about that awful erectile disfunction advert that appears on some Freeview channels, sometimes in the day & at teatimes, when kids will be watching & they didn't do anything! They said it was fine. It's not nice when young grandkids ask what erectile disfunction is!

    @madaboutHolly @Lee_JM75 Who's watching this bad boy on Freeview channel 70 ,Horror, right now😁💩💩💩

    Looking through the festive TV schedule and there's no Muppet Christmas Carol on any of the freeview channels this year. Never wanted @DisneyPlus to launch more than right now.

    @Matey30 @virginmedia Nothing less than I’ve come to expect from them. Service has been so bad which is why we’ve left their tv service. Had to keep the broadband for now due to limitations of other local providers. Now watching freeview…

  • ellrbrown Elliott Brown (@ellrbrown) reported from Birmingham, England

    @mrgrahamreed @BBCiPlayer I think I only saw season 1 on Sky 3 on Freeview. Never saw the rest of it. The classic '70s Battlestar got shown on BBC 2, in the '90s.

    @NOWMusic Thank god its only for a short time, my sky dish won't pick up Now80's, its on one of the dodgy low frequencies, really going to miss it until its back on Freeview, you need to fix that sky frequency.

  • StefanCtn Stefan C (@StefanCtn) reported

    @FreeviewAU Since Freeview updated to 1.04 our Hisense 65S8 TV no longer allows the default electronic program guide (EPG) button to work. @HisenseAus advised this is a known issue with Freeview to fix. Is there a timeline on getting this resolved?

  • MarkBentley1966 Mark Bentley (@MarkBentley1966) reported

    @BooOMeringue @BumblingD I live very near to this house. Internet here is very poor. 8mb at ours. No Freeview signal to speak of either, plus we don't even have mains gas. There are many other benefits though.

  • MsDJ1780 Ms DJ (@MsDJ1780) reported

    @piersmorgan Sounds like my Uncle!! Took him to get a ‘new tv’ (with freeview, etc built in). With purchase he got 6 free months of one plus 12 months of another. I set it all up straight away (inc. the freebies). Yet, he’s never even tried them - he’d rather moan that there’s nothing on TV!

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital Last time I contacted freeview about the issues, the lady suggested I buy a new scart lead, or my tvs the wrong type.

  • Rolo_Tamasi Rolo Tamasi (@Rolo_Tamasi) reported

    @GMB Should we stop giving bad news media Freeview space?

  • FreeviewTV Freeview (@FreeviewTV) reported

    @MaggieMossop Hi Maggie, Thanks for your inquiry today! Unfortunately, we at Freeview do not decide what is shown on the channels therefore, a choice like this would be down to a broadcaster to make. Thanks again, Dev.

  • beezly Andrew Beresford (@beezly) reported

    Anyone else getting weird audio problems with @BBCLookNorth on BBC1 Freeview from Emley Moor transmitter?

  • fab4records ⱤØ₵₭₵ⱧɆ₣💉X1 (@fab4records) reported

    @GBNEWS @Nanaakua1 Excellent. I nipped over to Freeview 236 yesterday & sure enough, I had to re-tune the telly! Once I'd done that I could see the GB News test signal screen ready & waiting. 👍

  • colinm65290743 colin_m (@colinm65290743) reported

    @Iromg Yes, retuned my Freeview and there it is, GB News test signal on ch 236.
