Freeview Issues Reports Near St Albans, England

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 😂

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

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

  • Stroudgreenguy J. Alfred Prufrock (@Stroudgreenguy) reported from Tottenham, England

    @Channel4 Hello. Can I watch Channel 4 *live* through the All 4 app on smart TV? All I see is catchup. I would like to watch CH 4 news every night but my aerial is broken, no Freeview. Please advise.

  • themib Martin Bentley, AKA Martin Bentley (@themib) reported from London, England

    Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

  • 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

  • Dante_Banks Danté Banks (@Dante_Banks) reported from Tottenham, England

    @tinytwink The poor shouldn't have anything they have to work for. Big screen TV - nope. Netflix - what's wrong with Freeview? Mobile phone - can't they walk to the phone box on the corner that was disconnected five years ago. They think if you're poor you should suffer or not be poor.

  • 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.

  • D_Hollingsworth Dan Hollingsworth (@D_Hollingsworth) reported from Rickmansworth, England

    When did BBC4 HD. Leave Freeview? What a load of ****, missed a chunk of #TOTP and joining it late with Michael ruddy Jackson.

  • WhoHelpsOut Ezekiel Thorp (@WhoHelpsOut) reported

    Please UKTV network, if you won't put Matt Smith and Jodie Whittaker episodes on the Drama channel then at least put the W channel on Freeview

  • JanetMcwee Brixham Belle (@JanetMcwee) reported

    @duncanda51 yes we have never used Freeview

  • gildy61 Random Jottings of Gildersleeve (@gildy61) reported

    @SCEthelAustin @tanita_tikaram I suggested Morgan might join GB News or one of the phone in radio stations but Murdoch is launching a TV service and seemingly his will be via the internet whereas Neil's channel has a slot on Freeview. Sky and Freesat.

  • jsinclair29 James Sinclair (@jsinclair29) reported

    @JanetMcwee We have no aerial, have satellite dish that we use for FreeSat. Took the thing down a few years back was thinking of putting it back up to get Freeview, new one.

  • superwonderstar The Industrious Ant (@superwonderstar) reported

    @kaybar007 Any broadcast service - satellite, cable, or Freeview - has to obey the Ofcom size rules, no matter what technology they use. The examples you give of services like Netflix are online services, not broadcast, and not regulated by Ofcom.

    @Johnnypapa64 @NakedAirplane They should put shows like this on Freeview to counteract all the reality TV crap that's on there day in day out.

  • LGUK LG UK (@LGUK) reported

    @Djsat22 Hi there, we don't believe they will be getting Freeview Play, but we are working with the broadcasters directly to support the UK catch-up apps. They already support BBC iPlayer, and many already support ITV Hub, with the remaining models to follow. (1/2)

  • thisisjoeob Joe O'Brien (@thisisjoeob) reported

    @nickpiggott More that the ITV Hub is crap. And I didn’t realise so many people had either no TV or no freeview. But yes. Q is it!!

    @PaulHan12455719 Hello Kaizer. The winds are bad here too, 50-60mph next three days as well. Stay indoors but try to avoid Freeview TV in the day it's rubbish. 🐕 🐾

    @Coldwar_Steve A cultural septic tank, TV turned dystopian ****-fest available on freeview channel 666.
