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

  • DamienAshton Damien Ashton-Wellman (@DamienAshton) reported from Birmingham, England

    Looking through the festive TV schedule and there's no Muppet Christmas Carol on any of the freeview channels this year. Never wanted @DisneyPlus to launch more than right now.

  • ellrbrown Elliott Brown (@ellrbrown) reported from Birmingham, England

    @mrgrahamreed @BBCiPlayer I think I only saw season 1 on Sky 3 on Freeview. Never saw the rest of it. The classic '70s Battlestar got shown on BBC 2, in the '90s.

  • niksibley Nik Sibley (@niksibley) reported from Coventry, England

    Any ideas why MiL’s @HisenseUK @Roku TV sometimes puts itself onto the Freeview Play page whilst watching her Sky Q box? Even did it to me as I was navigation TV settings. Maybe TV or remote control issues? Hopefully unplugging/replugging will simply be enough to fix it…

    You don’t realise how awful freeview is until your waiting for the sky man to come to your house 🥴

    Dear @Channel4 please can you add live streaming to your 4OD service. My Freeview signal is shocking and I'm missing Bake off and this is very distressing

  • xemilywalker emily (@xemilywalker) reported from Solihull, England

  • unit_1974 🐺Wolfish (@unit_1974) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Matey30 @virginmedia Nothing less than I’ve come to expect from them. Service has been so bad which is why we’ve left their tv service. Had to keep the broadband for now due to limitations of other local providers. Now watching freeview…

  • old_bob52 Kevin Bull (@old_bob52) reported from Coventry, England

    @LewisHamilton @SilverstoneExp That may be the case Lewis. If you really want to inspire the next generation. F1 needs to be on Freeview. It willl never happen though.

  • JacquieSamateh KS (@JacquieSamateh) reported from Coventry, England

    @FreeviewAdvice My Freeview channels were broken up so I tried to retune, and only South TV channels came up & only BBC1, BBC2, BBC4 and the children's BBC channels. So I tried retuning again and I can find not ONE single channel. Please help me. Thanks

    @Deji500 Dreadful take this, Poindexter. One of the single worst and ignorant tweets I’ve ever read. Slam on the 10 minute freeview and have a tug, you daft get.

  • Superdeformer_ PS (@Superdeformer_) reported

    Virgin Media have written to us to let us know our bill is going up to £79. We only have the basic channels. Will be looking to cancel next month. We watch mostly Freeview channels anyway. Just need to find a good broadband provider (who supply a decent router)?

  • feckingpsycho Ted with TM (that's Transverse Myelitis) (@feckingpsycho) reported

    Zoe's internet has crashed just as we were settling down to watch Kenobi on Disney 🤬 Freeview is the only option and after 2 minutes of Glastonbury I'm about to put pins in my eyes and tie a rope around the nearest tree...

  • PumpkinLover17 PumpkinLover (@PumpkinLover17) reported

    I tried to find something enjoyable at #Glastonbury2022 that the #BBC were broadcasting on freeview last night.......total fail. Here's hoping they broadcast Roisin Murphey tonight. Otherwise I will await the new season of Jools Holland seeing as he can still get good acts on.

  • saintchrisobee Chris O'Bee (@saintchrisobee) reported

    As if the lack of music channels on Freeview wasn't already bad enough the only one I regularly watch Now 80s is no longer available from Thursday 🙄😡

  • tocatchathief8 🌱🌻🌹John McCarthy🌹🌻🌱 (@tocatchathief8) reported

    @cordbusters You can watch Freesports on free to air satellite as well. Won't miss it on Freeview as I could never get anything on com7 🤷

    Allowing @BBCNews HD channel to drop out of Freeview is a huge error. Poor choice. @newswatchbbc
