  • PaulW_1 Paul Williams✈️ (@PaulW_1) reported from Sale, England

    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

  • thelobsterboy Paul Smith (@thelobsterboy) reported from Manchester, England

    I love these Freeview updates. Each time I rescan the television I seem to lose additional channels! I'm down to QVC, Free Sports and That's 70s and it's only 3pm!

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Dpoet58 Don (@Dpoet58) reported

    @FreeviewTV CA14 Workington, no freeview signal on both receivers. I visually checked my aerial, it's still pointing the same way as all the others. All my neighbours are at work so can't check with them.

  • SonnerSounds WhatNow (@SonnerSounds) reported

    The @RadioTimes website used to be great, now it's terrible. Used to be able to hover over a programme and get a summary, now have to click through. Doesn't remember if you are Freeview or whatever.

  • SnapeHugh hugbilly (@SnapeHugh) reported

    @RadioTimes I have done that, but the site doesn't seem able to remember one's chosen service provider between visits. Despite my remaining logged in it always defaults back to "Popular Channels" rather than remembering that I had selected "Freeview" previously . . .

  • spidermanmsy Francis (@spidermanmsy) reported

    @AdrianEdmondson It's the amount of bloody repeats that gets me...even hours/days rolling films that aren't changed for 2 - 3 weeks 🙄 Even the older films repeated...must be 1k's films that haven't seen daylight gotta be better than current crap! This is of course re freeview tv channels!

  • pde62 Peter Everett (@pde62) reported

    @k1482 @AvonandsomerRob The good lord commonsense. It's about budgets and budgeting. Freeview TV is .... free. So you can't deny it would help household finances, especially for those who are cash-strapped; whether they are employed by the state or not.

  • gordon_gm Gordon D. Morrison 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@gordon_gm) reported

    @PhimisterJim @DaveMunrosCat I set that up at the old caravan.... not too bad. use freeview and stream Netflix etc via site WiFi (or phone if busy. 👍👍

  • W31CAS 🇨🇦🏳️‍🌈 (@W31CAS) reported

    @AvonandsomerRob Damn right they should. Also, the number of outgoings on luxuries like SKY TV, Netflix etc. plenty of choice on freeview.

  • kelaher զʊǟռȶʊʍ (@kelaher) reported

    @je_au @MichaelWestBiz I agree on the conditional DRM thing, though not 'trivial'. Also a confusing user experience. Example (real world, lived, me) - FreeView TV app no login - many TVs have Freeview AND native apps. Freeview has "missing content" for that reason - customer complaints result !

  • a_rdavey subject impermanence (@a_rdavey) reported

    @pde62 @Bazza315 @AvonandsomerRob "I think charities should have the power to take away people's TV packages on pain of starvation, while the government - instead of them proper support - installs Freeview. Because my brain is mush and assume they don't have this already, but I want to punish the poor further"

  • Tillymint53 Tillymint (@Tillymint53) reported

    @happyborg @RadioTimes Yeh I find that freeview one is okay..just have to get used to a different site. I think that RT think I am on a mobile phone but I am on a HP laptop so swiping etc just doesn't work.
