  • 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.

  • 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

    @FreeviewTV Are you seriously going to ignore that Freeview is down across the entire UK and has been for hours? All channels are gone.

  • mynameisdavinia Davinia (@mynameisdavinia) reported

    Anyones freeview TV signal connection gone? Mines not working on any tv’s in the house. Anyone else experiencing the same lost signal? #freeview #tv #signal

  • Juju72028287 Juju (@Juju72028287) reported

    @FreeviewTV Would love to watch, but Freeview seems to be down - surely you're not ignoring the fact that the service has been bad all week and has completely given up today. Or am I just imagining a no signal message on every channel?

  • jackvanpelt Firebird (@jackvanpelt) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice are you going to put out a tweet about the widespread freeview service being down or what. Hundreds of reports on down detector complaining about not being able to view ANY channels. While your site claims nothing is wrong in all these areas. Come on, sort it out.

    Just tried to retune Freeview and I've lost the multiplex with BBC News HD and BBC4 HD amongst others. Is there a problem with the Belmont transmitter or is it my end of things? cc @looknorthbbc
