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 😂

  • 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.

    @last_of_england I never knew what to think of the film. It left me feeling quite depressed. If they screen it on Freeview, I'll give it a try.

  • UKTVPlayHelp UKTV Play Help (@UKTVPlayHelp) reported

    @FO2D_ All right, can you come back to us if you still see the issue tomorrow after lunch? It looks like freeview servers (where you get the ads from) did have some issue today so it could explain why you got few issues.

  • roy_gill Roy Gill (@roy_gill) reported

    @fitgeek_uk Hard to say. I stream a fair amount of movies, TV and music, but I also use a lot of physical media (and have freeview) so if/when the internet goes down, I wouldn’t be *without* any of those entertainment options, I’d just have less immediate choice.

  • FreeFilmsUK FreeFilms UK (@FreeFilmsUK) reported

    Unhappily, today's showing of Dog Day Afternoon (1975) starring The Cat in the Hat as Angus MacGyver has been postponed due to flu, but the really bad one. #freeview

  • Our_Lev Lev (@Our_Lev) reported

    @rdllopes @TankieHater @NadiaInBC RT had considerable reach. It was freely available on freeview/satellite platforms and also online. It was cut in a blatant act of censorship - what were they scared of? People asking questions? The stupid masses being brainwashed? The freedom-loving 'west' should be horrified.

  • hispanista Hispanista (@hispanista) reported

    @thefish64 @psychpolis Never used them in the U.K. Freeview was enough + NowTV, Netflix and Prime. My fibre broadband was BT.

  • greenbenjamin Benjamin Green (@greenbenjamin) reported

    @ITVXhelp @ITVX Thanks, but that’s not a great deal of help as Freeview Play is listed, but just says ‘some devices not supported’. Why would the software not be written to work on devices that might be a few years older but still being sold? Or is it just not been sorted yet?

  • deeplyclassical The Symphonist (@deeplyclassical) reported

    I see @smithsonian channel which my 88-year-old mum loves, has gone from Freeview and the programmes are now only on paid-for streaming services which her poor eyesight means she can't use. So thanks for that.

    @GBNEWS 'LIVE now: Sky 512, Virgin 604, Freeview 236, Freesat 216, YouView 236, Samsung 4326, Sky Glass 509, DAB+ Radio, GB News App, YouTube, Online.' And I've never seen one minute. Despite this my Twitter feed is clogged up with your tweets.

    @WilliamNB @tvlicensing We had loads of them letters when we lost our regional TV transmitter and every single person with just Freeview service cancelled their direct debits. It was over a million households for Teesside and little further away. They then targeted OAP's with letters 1/2
