@KarmaUnc @GMB @joshwiddicombe Yes, but the BBC is a significant contributor to Arquiva who own the masts. They also support Freeview and Freesat.

@FreeviewAdvice Our JVC smart TV will only let us change channels if we go onto the Freeview Play Guide, it won’t change if we just type in the number using the remote (remote works for everything else. Any help please? We’ve also got an issue with bbc iPlayer not working.

@cutex24 Hello. Thanks for letting us know. It is possible that it is temporary due to weather conditions. Where are you watching from (and via which service, Freeview etc)?

My dad: “I don’t think we’ve got that Tory news channel on the Freeview have we? I’ve never seen it” Me, to myself: “No, I delete it every time you ask me to do the channel rescan”

@paulhunter62 I’d never heard of the channel until my sister told me - it’s a Freeview channel, apparently. As for the film, who knows! 🤷🏻

@petemorristwit Freesat has been rock solid transmission for approx 8 years that I’ve used it. Freeview was v poor reception in my area & would break up v frequently. Completely solved the issue. PVR with 500GB & twin tuner has proved v useful. Imho picture quality is better than Freeview too.

BBC channels are breaking up on Freeview, it really is a poop service. Really not worth the money paying the licence fee for.

@smileamilewide @petemorristwit I just have a freeview tv. Which is fine, sort of, if you nit interested in top quality TV. A lot of repeating which is inevitable. All comes down to money and what you are willing to pay.

@sillymidoff Kia ora Ruth! Sorry to hear about this. We're checking in with the team now to check on this! What were you watching on the TVNZ+ app (was it live or a show streaming via TVNZ+?) and did you have the same issues via Freeview or Sky?
