Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Pontypridd and nearby locations:

  • MeurigRogers 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.

  • IanCleverly06 Ian Cleverly (@IanCleverly06) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    Just 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)

  • 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

  • dave_maydew 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

  • GeorgeBaldwin14 George Baldwin (@GeorgeBaldwin14) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    And 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

  • oitappin 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.

  • MichaelLeeLewi4 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

  • SteffApCennydd SteffApCennydd (@SteffApCennydd) reported

    @MarkSharon_DP @paullewismoney That looks intriguing. Is "Woke TV" a new streaming service or can you watch it on Freeview?

  • poshfanupnorth Mark (@poshfanupnorth) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice hi, im having trouble receiving drama (channel 20 freeview) on all sets in my house. All other channels fine, although sometimes the picture breaks up on them.

  • GizzarkHenry Mike Elevenay but also tinsel (@GizzarkHenry) reported

    Freeview are seriously using Free Love Freeway in an advert Like That's a deliberately **** song, isn't it? About banging in a layby or something?

  • jjirw John Irwin (@jjirw) reported

    @ElaineYoung94 They have a children's lottery in Scotland. I know.... good cause , but a bad name. I got a Scottish sky freeview card for 12 Euro from some crowd in Sligo when I cancelled my sky subscription. So I watch Scottish ads on sky.

  • becbtmunro Becca Munro (@becbtmunro) reported

    .@FreeviewTV @PanasonicUK can you help my dear 75 yo Dad? He has a Panasonic TV and inbuilt freeview and the TV guide is suddenly not working properly - only exhibiting a few programmes at a time. We’ve tried multiple fixes but can’t work it out! Pls can you help?

  • Rambler4224 Rambler (@Rambler4224) reported

    @marhoomakbar If you don't watch LIVE TV on freeview use bbc iplayer, you don't need to pay licence to BBC. You can watch anything via internet or cable TV (netflix, amazon, apple, sky..)without a licence. Cancel your subscription on tvlicensing and stop funding bbcpersian.

  • margatesunsets Fiona K. (@margatesunsets) reported

    @HabberleySteve @dancludlow @ShirleyMadin1 Andrew Neil is fronting a new news broadcasting service in the New Year. Called GB News, I think! It's going to be on Freeview, which I can't get! I use Freesat.

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @ukdtt @tvlive @GeoffGilham A lot of people i speak to have got fed up and run out on freeview, problems with reception associated with the costs of installs, and the constant retuning, high gain installs at about £250. Its not very freeview they say. In my town sky is everywhere,

  • IrregularExpr Ben Woodford (@IrregularExpr) reported

    @PaulieHughes Kinda bizarre that Kodi has to be sideloaded, the Fire platform is locked down in mysterious ways... I have two HD 8s at work that I need to short a clock pin on at some point On the missing all front: our Sony TV was missing all the British OD stuff unless you setup Freeview

  • ttiaat ^^^^ (@ttiaat) reported

    @HumzaYousaf @Stuart_McDonald . watching Freeview every advert features a black or mixed race actor I can see why people get antsy - and poor white people don't have community or identity... But that is different to the bullying of brown people that follows or rejecting that on colonialism need re-educating
