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 😂

  • 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.

  • 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.

    @_NeilC__ Hi Neil, Can you send us a private message with the following: Your door number & postcode so we can check your local transmitter If the All4 app is also missing/not working If all your Freeview channels are working If you've performed any resets on your box recently Thanks

  • Renbymon Zen-Aku ⬛🐺🗡 (@Renbymon) reported

    Apparently it's not just ITV4, most of the Freeview movie channels are "interrupt a movie with 5 minutes of celebrity/sports news".

    @bigkite @Prof_Nostalgia @FreeviewAdvice Have you phoned the Freeview Helpline to ask further information? If you don't have internet access to check signal transmissions online your best route is to phone 03456 50 50 50. Mon - Fri, 9am to 5pm. Sadly now the soonest you can call is Monday.

  • v_perjorative samh (he/him) #blm (@v_perjorative) reported

    Watching La Vuelta on Freeview (Quest). Anyone know why the resolution is so utterly crap? It's significantly worse than when they showed the Giro d'Italia.

  • p__e__a__s p e a s (@p__e__a__s) reported

    @itreallyisEmma Freeview is ****** up here, love. Believe it or not, the transmitter burned down. Freeview officially down indefinitely.

  • m0rjc Richard Corfield 🧗📷⚜️⛺ {🏃‍♂️🧭} 🎭 (@m0rjc) reported

    @rdavies6 @Golf_5_TM I don't think many noticed the Freeview failure here. My kids found out when they couldn't get their YouTube fix with the WiFi off.

  • WatsonJKnights Watson J.Knights (@WatsonJKnights) reported

    @MsAmiiEvlynB @FreeviewAdvice @FreeviewTV Mine went like this a few months ago. I contacted freeview they told me lots of things 2 try none worked. Was at home after a week of no freeview looked down & thought what if I disconnect signal booster maybe that will make a difference..it did. If you have booster disconnect it

  • PaulDel70889969 Paul Delaney (@PaulDel70889969) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Freeview didn't start a fire that caused the damage...nor did the company who now manage it. How quick do you think it takes to put up a temporary mast that's over 1000ft high (so that it still reaches everybody affected). You can't expect anyone to just throw a tower up..

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital It's like the guy, "harry hill" who came to my house sent by freeview, I never asked for him, just turned up. Here to fix your TV mate,

  • WiggumCharm Tom Head (@WiggumCharm) reported

    That's your lot on this issue. Nothing more to say. Consider this the 10-minute freeview on Babestation and make do with it... 😎
