    @LGUKCare It's the 55UM7400PLB. Problem affects the entire UM7400 range, and means the hybrid channels on Freeview (225-256) show as "Invalid Service". Freeview have said that all their services are now in HBB as well as MHEG, but the sets still don't pick up the HBB.

    @MartinSLewis This is nothing new. Each year @skytv & @virginmedia are always hiking up their prices to something else & for what bb that doesn’t work & tv channels you never watch. I’d rather stick to Freeview from now on & find myself a cheap bb by shopping around.

    @freesat_tv can you advise why the drama channel of Freeview is so bad lately

  • Bluebellwood5 Bluebellwood (@Bluebellwood5) reported

    @bbcpress Why do I have to pay for a "Service" I don't use anymore other than watching repeats of BBC repeats which aren't even televised by The BBC anymore? I watch Freeview channels but not any BBC ones anymore.

    I thought to see HD channels on Freeview I needed a HD TV. My TV...hardly used is 9 years old but the Freeview recorder box and combined Freeview tuner I have added has...improved the signal strength. Possibly given extra channels and I can see the HD channels do exist.

  • Malum_Bear Bear (@Malum_Bear) reported

    @bantalols They're showing that on Forces TV, on Freeview. It's still ****.

  • gildy61 Random Jottings of Gildersleeve (@gildy61) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Final tweet on this. I had help from Freeview. Returned again. Go figure...Normally delivered Freeview via the TV internal tuner. I have lost two channels. Why now who knows. They have turned up on the new Freeview recorder box. Plus a free sports channel. So I still have them.

  • Enright2214 George Enright (@Enright2214) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice is there a known issue in the Peterborough area? I’ve noticed we’ve lost many Freeview channels and I can’t see why. Numerous re tunes haven’t resolved the problem

  • litvank debbie *********** (@litvank) reported

    @transpenderism it's for the 'freeview' service lol

  • BameWiltshire BAME in Wiltshire (@BameWiltshire) reported

    @OliverDowden. HELP. Please, please do something about Freeview TV. The content is negative, woeful and not fit for purpose - and for some this is all they have. It could be a tool for positively impacting on the nations mental wellbeing.
