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.

  • 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.

  • 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. 👍

    @FreeviewAdvice Oh Freeview help page not there

  • abigayle_x Abigayle ♠️💜 (@abigayle_x) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice JVC tv with freeview play is throwing up error FVP-300 on iPlayer, ITV Hub, All 4 and My5. Have power cycled the TV and reset the wifi and still getting the error. Aerial is fine as live freeview channels still working, any idea how to fix this?

  • MochaQuokka QuokkaMocha🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇨🇿🏳️‍🌈 (@MochaQuokka) reported

    @TheWeegieDoctor Yeah, I do not miss that not coming off my pay every month. I tend to watch streaming stuff more often than live TV anyway, and you can get the More 4 and BBC apps and watch stuff. I just use the Apple TV for everything these days. Can't get a proper signal for the freeview here.

  • denben14 denise bennett (@denben14) reported

    @hansmollman Still not working properly- programmes not matching freeview info or a blank screen

  • cleanfeed_ttvr Clean Feed @ The TV Room (@cleanfeed_ttvr) reported

    PRESWATCH: continuing fallout from Saturday's Red Bee incident: - E4+1 seems to be off air on Freeview (thanks @theidentgallery for flagging). - Sound on some programme content on some C4 channels seems distorted.

  • AliceP104 Alice Pennington💙 (@AliceP104) reported

    @4Viewers Hi has the technical issue that forced Channel4 off-air yesterday affected audio description? Just watching #FoxysFearless48Hours and there is no audio description despite it being listed as having AD. I double checked and AD is definitely enabled - watching on Freeview

  • JBlairSco James Blair FRSA (@JBlairSco) reported

    @Gwyn_Dr @eddsirr @S4C So why doesn’t S4C have a backup link as a priority to the network? Regardless they were off the air to freeview the most watched platform for the channel!

  • eddsirr Edd Sirr (@eddsirr) reported

    @JBlairSco @Gwyn_Dr @S4C It’s not a connection error or a broadcaster error- it’s an error by the company that broadcasts the Freeview multiplex. There is literally nothing S4C could have done themselves to fix it.

  • Woody4563 Aaron Nicholas-Wood (@Woody4563) reported

    @BestDrWho @Telegraph And the British public are paying for this. The BBC are the worst channels on so called freeview.

  • willmgreenhalgh William Greenhalgh (@willmgreenhalgh) reported

    @canveyboy1972 @Channel4 Apple TV is still broken then, from what I've read satellite was the first to return then they focused on freeview, I guess apple TV and other Internet based services are last on the list
