Latest outage, problems and issue reports in St Albans and nearby locations:

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

  • PhilMcBoobs Philip McHale (@PhilMcBoobs) reported from Barnet, England

    @jonnyt78 Not at all. Was supposed to be awful except from some certain sections of the media. Some of the games were of freeview over here as well, I didn’t have a clue

  • nessymon Nessy 😷 (@nessymon) reported from London, England

    @MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.

  • psnow85 Peter Snow (@psnow85) reported from Arkley, England

    @Samantha_J_Rea Hmm not to sure about freeview but definitely freesat it’s been taken off for over a year. Probably the same though. Sucks big time. Anyway. Hope you are well.

  • SnapeHugh hugbilly (@SnapeHugh) reported

    @RadioTimes Thanks for the reply and I understand the intention. What is slightly more annoying is that the site no longer allows one to set a default service provider (i.e. Sky or Freesat.) I use Freeview and it used to be that once I'd selected that service as the provider the page would

    @clarketelecom Please can you tell me what you can do about my TV signal? Since you installed a 5G mast almost opposite my house it has disrupted my freeview signal and now I have lost half the channels. I can't even watch ITV!! Please tell me how you wish to rectify this?

  • 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!

  • Farfields_0x04 John 3VaxDermott *🌻🇺🇦* 🇬🇧🇳🇿 (@Farfields_0x04) reported

    @Yekki_1 Use Freeview box with antenna where you can get a convenient signal and check the remote will work at that distance, then hdmi wireless extender to your TV. Not elegant though.

  • timway Tim Way (@timway) reported

    Dear @SkyNews. Please can you take over the HD channel of RT on Freeview? I’m sure @Ofcom can help make this happen quickly.

  • DarkNightMoofie ✌🏻Gary/Gawy✌🏻 (@DarkNightMoofie) reported

    @Forces_TV are there any plans to bring your channel to the non HD service of Freeview?

  • misscepayne Carolyn Payne (@misscepayne) reported

    @CarrieHFletcher Literally dreading the day I have to upgrade the telly! I don’t know how any of it works! And I haven’t even entered the realm of the smart tv yet! We just have freeview! That’s it! Good luck! And sorry for the lack of help x

  • gardeninguy Guy Cook (@gardeninguy) reported

    Pops has his TV back, and me turning Router off @ night, safety reasons, is the reason his box went wrong. It needs updating during night. Bloody stupid. My Freeview lets me know when I need to update. More electricity on, when not needed. Bills going up.

  • 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. 👍👍

  • Sarah_binka1 Sarah (@Sarah_binka1) reported
