    @FreeviewAdvice is Freeview down in Halton ?

  • 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.

    @RealBlackIrish @uncanted The current ITV issue is likely a consequence of digital terrestrial infrastructure being held together with bubblegum and hope, since it's only effecting Freeview. I don't think there's a huge conspiracy to normalise the loss of Tipping Point repeats for an afternoon.

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

    The incident originally resulted in a Freeview multiplex configuration glitch when E4 was broadcast in place of S4C in Wales. During the last 24 hours, ITV and Channel 5 have been glitching in some regions while other services on the multiplex were fine.

  • RalphMcTell1 Ralph McTell (@RalphMcTell1) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi, my TV is only recording some scheduled programmes in Freeview. It seems to affect all channels? Samsung advised to speak to you… can you help?

  • whocaresaaron a2k (@whocaresaaron) reported

    2008 my family was so broke they got rid of Cartoon Network! They had me on freeview man 😠😠😠😠😠😠😠

  • MadenRon Ron Maden (@MadenRon) reported

    @rahim94 I don't know anyone with Netflix, Amazon or any streaming service. They're either unhappy with freeview or slightly happy with freesat and their catchup services!

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

    There have been multiple reports of issues with the Freeview multiplex carrying ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 in standard definition. Different areas have been affected in different ways, but some services have been garbled/distorted,

  • Arnold__Simon Simon Arnold (@Arnold__Simon) reported

    @actiontiff @MailOnline I'm watching STV HD all good on Freeview service. #tippingpoint

  • MMendoza2021 Miguel. (@MMendoza2021) reported

    @dougmcfarlane41 @Freeview @TheNorthernEcho Poor, only HD channels and they keep losing signal. 5 out of 10 signal strength.

  • joeylk71 Joanne Gray (@joeylk71) reported

    @LauGoesToLondon Does it help improve your Freeview signal? I'm due my third dose sometime this month (hopefully)

  • sunkisscribbles Joy 🏳️‍🌈 (@sunkisscribbles) reported

    @ScrumptiousBlue Ahh OK, I just don't want my account deleted so that's a bit reassuring - thanks. Been asking them for help for 10 days but they won't reply, no idea why. Dr Pimple Popper - isn't that on Freeview?
