  • 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%.

    @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.

    @EngUndertaker Hi, I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Freeview channels. So we can look into this for you, can you please provide your postcode and house name or number? Thanks, Dylan

  • dougmcfarlane41 Douglas Mcfarlane (@dougmcfarlane41) reported

    Of course the weather has changed and with it the signal from Freeview's temporary mast has yet again changed. Went from all the BBC channels and 6 other channels (no ITV/C4), Then as the warmer weather moved northwards we lost all the BBC channels and after a retune got the 6

  • MarxMedia Mark Blacklock 💙 #JoinAUnion (@MarxMedia) reported

    @RosStewart1 I agree. The equipment is so old I'm surprised it can still carry a signal, so the initial costs must have been recovered by now. What they're doing is selling Freeview.

  • Scoutdwriter Scout Dawson (@Scoutdwriter) reported

    @TimHoelscherX They likely mean cable or network TV, which when you think about it, is accurate. I don't watch TV (I don't have Freeview set up, nor do I have Sky, TiVO or Virgin Cable etc) but I do have Netflix/Prime, which are websites/apps.

  • YorkieBkk LeedsYorkie (@YorkieBkk) reported

    @ashlucas75 I honestly have never even heard of it before. I think it was in Abu Dhabi the one I saw was just flicking through freeview channels and found it on there (free sports channel No 64) at silly o'clock when I could not sleep. Was def good fun though 👍

    Daughter's TV has switched off this morning! Changed the fuse in the plug thinking may just be that but nothing! Changed the HDMI cable! Nothing! Disconnected her console to show Freeview TV, still nothing! FFS! 🤬🤬 Short term solution - she uses TV in lounge in her bedroom
