Freeview Outage in Walton-on-Thames, Surrey, England

I will never have normal freeview tv

Channel ‘Pick’ on freeview. Never heard of it before but grateful for it tonight #chelsea

@FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

@bt_uk Thanks for the help. I spoke to freeview, tried a few things which didn't work but i contacted your TV help and after doing a few basic things somehow it appears to be working now! Very Strange. Tks

@njvns That’s so shit. It’s literally called freeview and yet it’s not free

@MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.

Catholic Twitter UK- help please! Anyone know of a Mass being broadcast on TV tomorrow ( not via internet) Lovely elderly lady has Freeview but no internet.... TIA!

@virginmedia once again trying to contact virgin media is a no go a proper waste of time contract has run out trying to cancel they have put the money up to £60 a month for basically 2 freeview boxes I have cancelled my direct debit which is due on the 7 april what a scam😡

@PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

@leksi_p Correct. If you do not have Freeview, Sky or Virgin (or any other cable service), you should not need to pay if you never watch it.

To be honest, when you've removed the dependency of other real time tv, i cant see many people chipping in. Many will be paying just to watch their subscription service or Freeview.

@Stephen_Neal Good shout! If we just take the Freeview/Freesat ones, we get to ten, excluding the National ones: 1) BBC One 2) BBC Two 3) BBC Four 4) CBBC 5) CBeebies 6) BBC News 7) BBC Parliament 8) Dave 9) Drama 10) Yesterday But they aren’t licence fee funded, so don’t help the argument.

@stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.

Now I have the truly truly shit @EE freeview package (literally the worst selection of channels on earth but boy is it cheap broadband) I only watch the main 5 channels or SVOD. W, Dave, ITV2 etc are dead to me

Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

@DrRacheal @FreeviewTV When I had problems with Freeview, I found their helpline - when I eventually managed to get through to someone - very helpful. Took me step-by-step through the stuff I could check and solved it for me.

@loudouglas75 I have such shit freeview I only have itv2+1

@itvhub Humax FVP-4000T 1TB Freeview Set Top Box Recorder, and having to sign in more or less every time is making us all dislike Martin Freeman

@Disco_Squirrel I’ve got the shitty EE freeview box and it’s one of the apps on there, but never used

@LushJEL I'm not much of a TV person as I don't really like it, but I found channel 83 on Freeview TV which is NOW The 80s, so some nights I just have it on in the background, lots of crap but also some good old ones 👍

@abbeylinegold I was, but i just looked up channel 4. I'd agree I mainly grew up with 4 I my TV does not even have freeview Just the smart thingy Too many channels showing too much crap between the rare gems that do exist cross platform and new platform

@loosewomen Never saw it. I only have Freeview. Harry and Meghan have totally disrespected the Queen.

@freesat_tv can you advise why the drama channel of Freeview is so bad lately

Yesterday...I gained extra channels and a stronger signal re-connecting wires into the TV and using a new Freeview box/recorder. Today...a couple of channels are breaking up. Lost one together whether I watch on the tuner within the TV or via the new box. 😠

@Kevin_M_Aquino 1/n So, I have my T1 image and I’ve marked three fiducial points on it, which I exported to a json file. the numbers in the json correspond to the coordinates labelled “RAS” in freeview. so far so good. my problem is that I need these points in what freeview calls “tkReg RAS”

@FreeviewAdvice I have been without signal for freeview for three days, are there any issues going on at the moment??

@salihughes @danielmaier More boring **** on tv to come. I assume FREEVIEW takes the punishment!!

@TraceHits When will you have your own channel on Freeview? I know your on channel 271 but I have problems connecting my TV to the Internet. I hope in the future that you will have this channel launched properly on Freeview. I have to watch you on Sky.

So Friday. What is in store? Esp in a lock down. Tentatively...the wheelie bin out first thing. Post office visit. Prescription to order. House tasks. Study the Freeview recorder box. I don't think I need any food shopping.

@bbcpress Why do I have to pay for a "Service" I don't use anymore other than watching repeats of BBC repeats which aren't even televised by The BBC anymore? I watch Freeview channels but not any BBC ones anymore.
