Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Winsford and nearby locations:

  • Crewedaddy Richard Seamon (@Crewedaddy) reported from Crewe, England

    @james_blue_cat Can't afford any streaming service or the hardware upgrade to accommodate one. Freeview and iPlayer is enough. Didn't switch telly on Xmas day and Bob and Paul going fishing was my highlight.

  • m7leicauser Andy Barton (@m7leicauser) reported from Comberbach, England

    @FreeviewTV Thanks to Dan at Freeview, the aerial-out retune x2 seems to have cured the problem. 👍

  • minxsterev helen kirk (@minxsterev) reported from Crewe, England

    @curryspcworld Just been into your Crewe store looking for a freeview box. 5 staff members fiddling with displays, me the only customer. Not one member of staff came to see if I needed help. Going elsewhere as you obvs don't need my custom.

    I asked my partner to cancel the sky sports package as I use Now TV for it. She infact cancelled the entire Sky package, meaning all we can now watch is the One Show and Dress to Impress 😲, not even Gold TV is covered on freeview :( #SkyTV

    SO HAPPY that on my tv ITV Freeview is currently in a pixellated meltdown and the telly won’t support live tv on the ITVX app… 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇫🇷@ITV @ITVX 🤯

    @martinjlansdell Good Afternoon Martin, trying to watch the football but my Freeview keeps losing signal, oh to be a poor old pensioner!!

  • MediaBoyUK Media Boy UK (@MediaBoyUK) reported

    1/3 BBC Scotland HD which broadcast every evening from 7pm on Freeview, moves to channel 106. BBC Four HD, which the BBC is planning to close in 2024, is moved down to channel 108. The move is due to complete around midday on December 14th. Viewers may need to rescan their TV.

    Gonna have a retro Christmas! Radio Times and no tv recording/pausing, we are pretending it’s the 70s again! Also known as the sky box has broken and we have no Freeview… #wewillhavetotalktoeachother

  • CaptainHippo Chris Cain (@CaptainHippo) reported

    Hi @davechannel @arqiva. Trying to watch Room 101 on Freeview and screen keeps going black at random intervals. Lasts about a second. Other channels are fine, including others on the ARQA mux. So would seem to be Dave specific issue.

  • atrichoke Hugo Tyson (@atrichoke) reported

    @JANUSZCZAK It's free live on Freeview. But you have to find it and record it at the time: there is no catch-up service like iPlayer &c. That's the PITA that makes me with much regret miss most of your stuff. No replay.

  • explodingwalrus Carl Draper (@explodingwalrus) reported

    @freesat_tv series link doesn't work for for University Challenge. Yet it can be done on Freeview. This is not good

    @leeboy1886 Hi Lee, I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Freeview Reception. So, we can investigate this for you, can you please DM us your postcode and house name or number? Thanks, Dylan

    Looking back on the early part of the first lockdown I mainly remember dealing with the possible curtailment of humanity by watching Challenge on Freeview for hours. Never thought that would be my reaction.
