  • 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

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Wyfan2 The Wilder Way - Patrick Wymark Boardroom (@Wyfan2) reported

    @RosalynConnors @RodneyMarshall1 You tell me..I've had Freeview freeze and black out like a signal problem before, but this seemed to be a continuous freeze frame right after saying, "shoot the first man that moves" (like a prank) and then a smooth cut to the next scene.

  • feetsby Colin Troy 🇺🇦 (@feetsby) reported

    @NMBCo @hardistymark Pretty sure East Midlands Today is a standard definition signal slapped into an HD channel. Just got freeview to save money, back to the ol’ ‘High Def not available in your area’ message. If we want to see our news broadcasters in high def, we have to see them down the pub.

  • KelsterWelster Kelly (@KelsterWelster) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Having trouble with my upstairs Sky box. Sounds coming on but screen is black. Nothing wrong with telly as I can get on Freeview and Netflix etc directly on the TV so it's definitely the Sky box. Any ideas?

  • Paulsmccann Paul (@Paulsmccann) reported

    @MoneySavingExp Went to get my daughter @SkyUK basic means tested broadband, the guy said he never heard of it tried to give us allsorts of tv/bb deals. She ended up being conned into getting sky q only with freeview and basic bb for £25 a month. Even discounted 1st bill.
