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

  • quodignoratum Myles Winstone (@quodignoratum) reported from Warrington, England

    @TalkingPicsTV Definitely. We struggle getting Freeview and as you’re not on BT TV I’m missing my fix!

  • AndyMcK1982 Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @jaxlfc_jj @YaTerrynorris70 It’s not restricted to the BBC. If you watch or record live TV on any channel - either through your TV or through a website - then you need a TV licence. This applies whether you receive Freesat, Freeview or a pay-TV service in your home, & whether or not you watch BBC channels.

    @Rhysj37 @FGHockey Got have bad times to have the good, sadly good times of 2016/17 2017/18 seem a distance memory now! Cheers for the insight. No s4c or BBC two Wales up on Freeview in our hotel. #Gutted

  • elniedunne Eleanor Greene (@elniedunne) reported

    @AnnMSinnott @Virgin We have sky phone and broadband. Freeview TV, never bothered paying for extra.

  • GTFCScoreboard GTFCScoreboard (@GTFCScoreboard) reported

    @staffordgary @TheVanaramaNL Doubt much will change. Hull predominately on FM since commentary back (and rightly given status and support base) and DAB and freeview for us two. And online for backup.

  • peteh678 Pete PeteH678 on GETTR (@peteh678) reported

    For anyone looking for an emergency alternative to @GBNEWS because Bengy Butterboy just came on, Nothing to declare is on freeview channel 36👍 #yourewelcome

  • TalkingPicsTV Talking Pictures TV (@TalkingPicsTV) reported

    @robishungry How do you watch us Rob, as we are not experiencing any problems with broadcast - Freeview etc?

  • llsorts Keryn (@llsorts) reported

    @Bridgetpee It will depend on your tv. Your tv might have Freeview installed. Find or download the tv manual for help. You might need to plug the aerial cable straight into the back of the tv and then tune the channels. Smart TVs are different again. Sing out if you need more help

  • Stiggylou Sam (@Stiggylou) reported

    High tide and lost all my freeview channels. I probably need to get a fixed aerial at some point. First World problems.

  • EricBear18 Eric Bear (@EricBear18) reported

    @chomper_TC @CodsyBear We do struggle to find stuff on Netflix these days - even alot of their « new » shows have already been on Freeview. Trouble with Amazon is there is alot of stuff without subtitles and we need those much of the time 🙄

    @skytv @TalkTV Why is the picture and sound glitchy on TalkTv. The picture quality is great but it's just not playing correctly. Note... Rest of my channels are fine even CNN which in bad weather disappears 1st. Also freeview is working fine... Thank you.
