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

  • MeurigRogers Morgan Barber-Rogers #FBPE melt and centrist dad (@MeurigRogers) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bethanjenkins Project Kangaroo became YouView. It wasn’t shut down because it was a ppv model - it was meant to be like an online Freeview. It was shut down because it was deemed unfair competition for private companies. Who are now all Americans.

  • MichaelLeeLewi4 Michael Lee Lewis (@MichaelLeeLewi4) reported from Aberdare, Wales

    @kieranjameen Kieran cancel it, my sister did with hers and hasn't missed it, you can buy internet freeview boxes now and you can download all the apps onto them, no monthly payments then, just for what you choose to, much cheaper

  • GeorgeBaldwin14 George Baldwin (@GeorgeBaldwin14) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    And has been mentioned before, I and I'm sure many others would never have followed rugby without the Six Nations being free to watch and having it on freeview year after year

  • KAK_Tweets Krys Cross! Cha Cha Real Smooth (@KAK_Tweets) reported from Treorchy, Wales

    @flickeringflxme I’ve never seen that one myself but somehow my granddad ended up buying it for himself which was made weirder by the fact he only had freeview so didn’t even have Disney Channel. He loved it though

  • dave_maydew Dave Maydew MW0DCM (@dave_maydew) reported from Tonyrefail, Wales

    @FreeviewAdvice @arqiva More disappointed, but I suppose I've got to accept it, after totally cutting the cord. I do have a tech question though. I'm using the Plex Media Server for Freeview, but the supplied EPG by Gracenote is terrible, is there a XML file of the one you use on the Android app

  • IanCleverly06 Ian Cleverly (@IanCleverly06) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    Just an FYI @DMAX_UK but you've just showed Series 3 Ep10 of #Archer, when the Freeview EPG (and your website) has you showing the correct in order Ep 9. It has the same down for the Sat midnight showing (ie Ep 10 is listed in you'll show Ep 9)

  • spidersam616 sam (@spidersam616) reported

    @farmboyluke I’m so sad for all the disadvantaged kids who rely on this service for entertainment. Not all kids can afford streaming and only freeview

  • sharon_hall1977 sharon hall (@sharon_hall1977) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice stop moving the channels around it's doing my head in! Freeview is ****!

  • martinmoulds77 martin moulds (@martinmoulds77) reported

    @SkyNews We don’t need BBC, they may as well close down, there are 100’s of free Chanel’s on freeview plus all the sky channels.

  • MHInnovate MH Innovation (@MHInnovate) reported

    @BBC just heard about your planned changes. Idiotic. Why move bbc3 to Freeview and then take away bbc4. I never watch bbc3 but very regularly watch bbc4. This is a summing down move. Not everyone has iPlayer on their TVs. Also moving 4extra to Sounds. We mainly listen in the car

  • daryl_millar Daryl Millar (@daryl_millar) reported

    While channel-hopping, I just caught a segment on a "news" channel in which some wazzock was joking that his gorilla mask was non-binary. That probably narrows it down to 2 Freeview channels in the UK.

  • LwtEmmaBird Sarah Harbour (@LwtEmmaBird) reported

    Hi @rmc47 - @melharbour suggested you might be able to help. Any ideas why a Freeview TV signal might disappear in the middle of the day? We've retuned, but it works fine until about 8.30am, then pixelated before finally displaying 'no signal' - so can't believe it's the tuning

  • OllyBellamy Olly Bellamy (@OllyBellamy) reported

    Hopefully the Sue Gray report will be more Judge Judy than Punch and Judy. If she's bottled it then the best she can hope for in retirement is narrating Police Interceptors on 5star Freeview Channel 34. Which is actually not a bad gig in itself.

  • kezzdev Kezz (@kezzdev) reported

    @picapi__ nahhh this is actually so ****... genuinely what are freeview kids gonna watch when they get home from school ?! ig nothing ???

  • emilymaroak emily 🎃 (@emilymaroak) reported

    @Kaaaaatie_x my parents have never had more than freeview and we didn’t get netflix/prime until i was probably about 14 - without cbeebies/cbbc i wouldn’t have been able to watch any kids shows before that :/ such a massive part of my childhood

  • fawltytowers69 Joe Hart (@fawltytowers69) reported

    @jimalkhalili To be honest we haven’t been able to receive BBC4 on Freeview for years, and switched completely to watching BBC on iPlayer due to building work / Bilsdale burning down. Not sure we’ll ever go back to linear viewing. The times they are a’changing.
