    @traceyfromrasen @Kavismate @SkySportsRacing @RacingTV My Freeview signal can be hopeless at best even connected to Wi-fi but the HDMI/laptop combo works well when the cat isn’t jumping on it !

    @GThomasboro Freeview is responsible for customer facing comms rather than Arqiva, but they'll be restricted to certain "lines to take" and that will have been approved, so it won't be as rough and ready as what you get on this Twitter feed! But for times like this, it's impossible to provide

    @FreeviewAdvice I see nobody from Freeview has had the nerve to reply to any of these comments. So much for customer service. Matches the execrable customer service displayed so far since the service went off.

    @MrRandomGuy93 @ImVaradi @davywright65 I was Head of Project Management at the BBC in 2002 and was responsible for creating Freeview in 6 months after ITV Digital failed after years of trying. Maybe you think someone waved a magic wand and it was born in a garage. 🙄🙄🙄🙄 You muppet (although I don’t want to be rude)

    @FreeviewAdvice Freeview didn't start a fire that caused the damage...nor did the company who now manage it. How quick do you think it takes to put up a temporary mast that's over 1000ft high (so that it still reaches everybody affected). You can't expect anyone to just throw a tower up..

    @rdavies6 @Golf_5_TM I don't think many noticed the Freeview failure here. My kids found out when they couldn't get their YouTube fix with the WiFi off.

    @alibi_channel Damn. Subscription only. Why not on freeview!

  • p__e__a__s p e a s (@p__e__a__s) reported

    @itreallyisEmma Freeview is ****** up here, love. Believe it or not, the transmitter burned down. Freeview officially down indefinitely.

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    @Adam_Peterkin They use the 'Freesat home transponder', sitting alongside the signal that delivers the Freesat EPG. Unlike the current TV back-up for Freeview multiplex PSB2 via satellite, the DAB multiplexes are not broadcast in a format that your average satellite receiver can handle.

    @FreeviewAdvice @FreeviewTV Freeview seems to be down in Birmingham too now.

  • GeoffBySea Geoff-by-Sea (@GeoffBySea) reported

    I so begrudge paying £13 a month for a TV Licence now but, if you cancel it, it’s not just the BBC you have to stop watching. Basically, we’re all paying a TV subscription monthly whether we want to or not. So it’s not actually Freeview now is it!
