  • JasonDragon1975 Jason Ratcliffe (@JasonDragon1975) reported from Chesterfield, England

    @Alexand85266011 @femme_uk @GBNEWS Freeview isn't very reliable for me either. I'm only 10 miles [as the crow flies] from the South Yorkshire Transmitter, yet I can only receive 6 of the 15 HD channels available. BBC1, BBC2, ITV1, Channel 4, Channel 5 and CBBC. The signal quality/strength is on average 80%.

    @LuckyCedarlane @BBCAMERICA @ITV @itv2 @Channel4 @channel5_tv C5 is awful. All this is freeview too!

  • StuN_UK StuN UK (@StuN_UK) reported from Sheffield, England

    @bowlestrek Get your facts straight. Johnson is not in favour of ditching the license fee, as he knows it’s a massive vote loser. Plus they’ve now realised, they can’t go to subscription fee system, as the freeview boxes that the majority of UK households use, don’t support it.

    @daryl_millar My freeview signal was awful the last few days and last night I didn't have a signal at all on any channel 😡

  • cashinol 🅽🅸🅲🅺 🇪🇸🇺🇦 (@cashinol) reported

    @tomasibray I’ve no experience of their service. I can get most freeview channels plus others on IPTV

  • mickey_omeara Mickey O'Meara (@mickey_omeara) reported

    @robin_parkes oh yeah I bet that was annoying, we've never had that problem here on all the tvs and boxes you get to pick what channels go at which numbers. Before ITV HD was at 3 it had adverts for kent and the wrong local news which is why they couldn't put it at 3. Still happens on Freeview

  • MichaelBalmer19 Mighty Mike (@MichaelBalmer19) reported

    @BBCNews And that folks are part of the problem in this country. The idea of what constitutes being poor is misunderstood. Cheap mobile phone, Freeview TV, reliable car, all essential. Not latest iPhone, multiple channel streaming and new car.

  • arif_ellam arif ellam (@arif_ellam) reported

    Lost Sky Arts channel 11 on Freeview after retuning TV Anybody else have the same issue?

  • milirn2503 M r (@milirn2503) reported

    @skytv my SkyArts channel has gone from my Freeview! Can I get it back? Also gone sky news please help

  • Ike_Laudius Ike_Laudius (@Ike_Laudius) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Good evening, it now appears that ITV 3 and 4, More 4 and Film 4 are not recording subtitles. BBC, ITV are fine. All subtitles work on TV, it is just the Freeview Recorder that has the issue. Regards.

    @GreenTV123 Hi, I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Freeview Reception. So, we can investigate this for you, can you please DM us your postcode and house name or number? Thanks, Dylan

  • ETusty Emma T (@ETusty) reported

    Yet again poor (well no) freeview signal. Seems that yet again much of the south east is suffering from blackouts this evening. OH's annoyed because he's missing the SAS BBC show, although I did point out he could go onto BBC iplayer which should work.
