    @Sonic_Sinclair @bbcmicrobot Technically it is, there's support for it in DVB. There's several channels on DVB satellite that uses it, not sure there's any on freeview. Certainly all the original services shutdown or moved to MHEG. The BBC mheg service was incredible but that's shutdown now too 🙁

    @DavidBoink @russeaside1053 Hi David, Sometimes mobile broadband services can interfere with TV signals in some areas. A company called DMSL has been established by mobile phone operators to help resolve these reception issues for Freeview users. If you want any further information, you can send us a DM.

    @MoneySavingExp Had Freeview for years. Haven't got time to watch everything we record so would never pay for even more channels.

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @KeithCP2 Hi Keith, It is unlikely the problem would be related to signal if one TV can receive Freeview channels. However, if you could please DM me your full postcode and house name or number I will look into that for you? Christine

    DAY 50 OF NO FREEVIEW Never on radio or TV nor with social media users such nonsense over loosing Facebook & pals. How one earth did people cope not sharing an image of what they're eating for dinner or a selfie standing infront of a mirror The horror

  • JAM_WAH Jamie Roberts (@JAM_WAH) reported

    @jamiesmart That's maybe more unsettling than a ghost! About 10 years ago I would wake up every night at exactly 3am without fail. 3am being the devil's hour or something. Freaked me out after a month or so. Turned out the Freeview box updated and made a noise.
