@Claire_Pickard @sueashton3000 Many residents in Sunderland & along the Durham Coast also receive Freeview Channels from the Bilsdale transmitter. The fire is also likely to have knocked out about 30 relay stations, which "feed" on signals from Bilsdale. I wouldn't like to climb up the transmitter to fix it!

@Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

With a rising British star it's important her finals are accessible free to air. Eurosport may use Quest for them, but they're likely to lose their HD channel soon thanks to slow and regressive progress on switching Freeview to HD.

@neil1886 @ChrisHazzardSF The RTE Freeview signal is not good enough for large swathes of the country to watch RTE.

@RomanUWSB ...... We Allso have small freeview digital boxes that convert old analogue t. v. 's with scarts to new sygnal. Totally free. One off buy box and install payment. Bad side is if you watch live t. v. You have to pay a yearly licence fee to BBC. Around £138. A year...

@Dolly_Darren Ok. Mine did the same to me. I switched it off at the mains (along with the Freeview box), promised never to watch ITV3 again, left it for about an hour and when I switched it back on it came back to life. Sadly, not designed to last now!

@FreeviewAdvice retuning does nothing.. no channels! Looking at the local forums many people are experiencing the same. Can you comment on actual service status in the SG11 area? Information on tuning my Freeview box is useless if there are no services...

@RebeccaHBM I’ve had no signal for TV since they changed to Freeview, so for approx 15 years I’ve had to pay for Sky. I don’t live in a little country village, I live in Barrow in Furness. We get our signal from IOM which is bounced off Winterhill, but not available here

Really @skytv , no info, no update and now I have to sit on the phone for 30 mins to find out why YOU have cancelled my service? And now I'm being charged for freeview channels which I can get for free??? Nah this is ridiculous.
