Freeview Issues Reports Near Porth, Wales
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Porth and nearby locations:
-
Morgan Barber-Rogers #FBPE melt and centrist dad (@MeurigRogers) reported from Cardiff, Wales@bethanjenkins Project Kangaroo became YouView. It wasn’t shut down because it was a ppv model - it was meant to be like an online Freeview. It was shut down because it was deemed unfair competition for private companies. Who are now all Americans.

Dave Bowden (@DaveBStDW) reported from Cardiff, Wales@bt_uk Hi Aaron, I am in complete disbelief as to how long this takes to resolve. I don’t care who resolves it & not my problem he’s not in. I’m paying full price for freeview! I demand compensation and a quick resolve as this is just embarrassing for @bt_uk
-
Dan Tappin (@oitappin) reported from Cardiff, Wales@DooHopper Pick will be an interesting case, no hd an awful picture on Freeview, good slot number but not much heft from Sky to push it.
-
Ian Cleverly (@IanCleverly06) reported from Trethomas, WalesJust an FYI @DMAX_UK but you've just showed Series 3 Ep10 of #Archer, when the Freeview EPG (and your website) has you showing the correct in order Ep 9. It has the same down for the Sat midnight showing (ie Ep 10 is listed in you'll show Ep 9)

Michael Lee Lewis (@MichaelLeeLewi4) reported from Aberdare, Wales@kieranjameen Kieran cancel it, my sister did with hers and hasn't missed it, you can buy internet freeview boxes now and you can download all the apps onto them, no monthly payments then, just for what you choose to, much cheaper
-
George Baldwin (@GeorgeBaldwin14) reported from Cardiff, WalesAnd has been mentioned before, I and I'm sure many others would never have followed rugby without the Six Nations being free to watch and having it on freeview year after year
-
Dave Maydew MW0DCM (@dave_maydew) reported from Tonyrefail, Wales@FreeviewAdvice @arqiva More disappointed, but I suppose I've got to accept it, after totally cutting the cord. I do have a tech question though. I'm using the Plex Media Server for Freeview, but the supplied EPG by Gracenote is terrible, is there a XML file of the one you use on the Android app
-
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

chris🥛I’m pro-choice (@scrivo35) reported@EmmerdaleInside There is no excuse not to put football or any other sport on ITV 3 or 4 as everyone who watches TV will have digital TV ( Freeview) as the analog signal got turned off years ago and them channels are free to all ( as long as they pay the TV Tax)
-
Intars (@intars) reportedOnly the Brits could reach the top tier of world ice hockey and then have literally zero channels bother showing their games. Proper GB support: ‘We’ll die on the beaches… but not on Freeview, mate. Just pay €30 for the official stream like a proper mug.’

©️Mischief & Mayhem! Hannah’s fur family 🥰 (@FurFamilyCats) reported@HelenFish249972 I don’t even think I pay for mine. I had Freeview for years, then Sky had a good deal as a new customer, I went to cancel this year as I’d had it two years and they basically kept it at the same price again. It was actually a few quid lower. I only pay £20 odd the internet, and

Disco Biscuit (@discobiscuit900) reported@Itinerantguy It's a corporate circle jerk that never ends. They just give awards to themselves though circuitous routes. Only the retards with freeview still believe anything that comes from their pursed anuses. Sadly, there are a LOT of retards with freeview.
-
Graham (@Greyadder) reportedIs anyone else getting problems with their Freeview television channels? It says no signal available could it be sunshine or the heat doing that?
-
South Wales Pragmatist (@WalesPragmatist) reported@alunsays @EnglandRugby Not in HD on Freeview. For a premium match it's a poor effort from ITV, like watching TV in the 90s...
-
Martin Dalton (@martindalton5) reported@ABridgen This is a government tax on the people. Make the BBC pay pre view via iPlayer with a limited free service of 1 channel on Freeview/freely called BBC Mix

Mitch W 71 (@Mitch_1142) reported@1Atkins @ThatsTVOfficial xenon81Message posted on30 Jul 2026 03:21 PM - last edited: 30 Jul 2026 03:22 PM That's TV has gradually removed all its channels from Sky, Freesat and Virgin Media over the last few months. It remains on Freeview (for now) but is said to be suffering financial problems.

Tom (@TomCushnie) reported@x20mjs @AvonandsomerRob The World Cup feed is full range HDR and because our infrastructure is so far behind technlogy they crush the colours into a limited range to fit into Freeview. Red and yellows look really bad with this. Although it looks like BBC are handling the picture better
