    @FreeviewTV @fb2070 My mother has had the same problem. Didn’t have any channels, so I retuned the Freeview box. HD channels are now missing. Can you advise please?

    @BeOdd2 What service. Sky Virgin Freeview?

  • KAK_Tweets Krys Cross! Cha Cha Real Smooth (@KAK_Tweets) reported from Treorchy, Wales

    @flickeringflxme I’ve never seen that one myself but somehow my granddad ended up buying it for himself which was made weirder by the fact he only had freeview so didn’t even have Disney Channel. He loved it though

    I don’t trust anyone younger than me that still watches linear tv but I’d rather have bbc content churned out on a channel than the alternative crap. Have you ever seen what’s taking up the freeview bandwidth?

  • ivedonethatokx Nobody told me there'd be days like these! (@ivedonethatokx) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV I really miss Talking Pictures channel, it was brilliant for my bedbound or less stimulated input days...With you from the start, and now you're gone..(and never called me mother!)Ever since the last update of my freeview ,wherefore art thou 😢?

    FREEVIEW DVB-T RECEPTION. There is currently a High Barometric Weather system over the UK and this is causing reception problems as regards Freeview Channels. Nothing can be done about it apart from moving to Satellite TV. Please don't adjust your TV's Tuning?

  • RLBROOKSLTD BROOKS WHITEHAVEN (@RLBROOKSLTD) reported

    02/03/2021: Freeview TV Signal Issues The Whitehaven & St Bees TV transmitters currently have reported faults on BBC channels due due to essential engineering work. Our advice is that you DO NOT RE-TUNE YOUR TV’S. we would expect that the signal will return once the work is done.

    @lesbianfeminis1 Oh no!! I thought it was ch 11 on the old freeview. I don't have it either. Boo. Never mind, nice idea :)

  • macman9999 macman9999 (@macman9999) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice You can get good clear pictures from Mars but not from Freeview, about time this problem was put right, i keep losing all BBC Channels, nothing sorts the problem out. its a service not fit for purpose.

    @_emma__mc Now you got me , I don't know why , but I can't do Casualty. Too much drama. But #Holby is a weekly never miss. But Jac Naylor now gone so I am fuming. Not paying my TV fee now. Classic Holby is on Freeview channel 20 "Drama" occasionally. Have fun.

    @RaymondSnoddy @EvansTheCrime Government have admitted that current free-to-air technology cannot support a subscription service, which requires some form of encryption & password to work. The cost of retrofitting Freeview and every TV in the land would be massive - who will pay?
