    @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

    @FreeviewAdvice we have lost the majority of freeview channels having retuned a few times. Used the availability checker which says channels should be available, can you help? Thanks

  • 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!

    @HughJan84215193 Hi, I am sorry to heat that you are having issues with your Freeview reception. So we can look into this for you, can you please DM us your postcode and house name or number? Thanks, Dylan

  • JibbleBobble Jamie Matthews (@JibbleBobble) reported

    @ricardoautobahn Most things on That's TV are in the wrong aspect ratio. Some (un)lucky viewers can also find That's TV on channel 7 on Freeview where it is disguised as the 'local tv' service. Still worth a watch to see the Thames TV logo at the start of Benny Hill.

  • RevDrDom Rev Dr Dom💙 (@RevDrDom) reported

    @toshibatveurope Bought a Toshiba smart 4K tv last year, it’s so smart I’ve had to buy a separate free view box because for some reason, despite having Freeview play it can’t cope with the freeview satellite signal!

  • James85fletcher James Fletcher (@James85fletcher) reported

    @Keeptheban_ “Ooh, that’s gonna be great”. People pay good money for Sky subscriptions, often to watch Freeview channels. There is a really simple solution.

    @chasnbons @FreeviewTV Hi Phil, I am so very sorry to learn you are experiencing issues with your Freeview reception. High pressure has been present for a few days and hopefully will move on soon. If you have retuned, you will have to retune again once the weather changes. Thank you, Melissa

    There's nothing quite like your broadband connection dying to make you fear that you might be stuck with the standard terrestrial TV channels & Freeview only this Christmas 😱 Seems to be a known area outage so hopefully fixed soon 🤞Phone dead too of course.
