    Why is the BBC World Service so hard to obtain EXCEPT in the one area which is explicitly not the target audience? In the UK the World Service is available 24/7 on DAB and I think Freeview and Freesat/Sky.

    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)

    .@Freeview question - how come the PSB muxes arenโ€™t treated equally? The BBC one and the HD one seem to have a much better signal from Wenvoe than the โ€œnormalโ€ ITV one. (I can get Mendip off a random bit of metal.)

    @likesretirement @toryboypierce @BBC For 350 days of the year Freeview is a sci-fi free zone and so making 50p per day poor value for money and not something I'd want to do! Those who like it pay for it fully

    @FreeviewAdvice none of the booked recordings are working on my recorder. And there are issues with freeview data ie next Thurs schedule is missing and when dr martin is on it says it is the royal?

    @FreeviewAdvice Since Sunday I've not been able to get these channels - 1,2,9,12,25,27,34,39,51,56. In this day and age I find it totally unacceptable that its still possible to get a bad signal for 1 day, never mind 3 days +. I can't afford cable or satellite tv, freeview is all I've got

    SBN (SonLife broadcasting Network) is a Pentecostal-based Bible teaching, Sermons, and Worship church. It is 24/7 and in the UK is on Freeview 94. It the USA it is online, on the television, and on the radio.

    @FreeviewTV Why are we having problems Recording Freeview channels, particularly Channel 10 ( ITV3) in the evenings? Generally ok during the day? Belmont transmitter? Does this need a time/ date adjustment at your end? Says No Signal for failed recordings but signal is there!!

    Freeview 231 BBC news is reporting multiple stabbing on train in Cambridgeshire. I get that it's breaking news but is it absolutely necessary to bang on repeating the same **** over and over again for more than half an hour.

    @ITVX hi any idea what is wrong with itvx freeview . Tried to watch something and it flashes a message saying the problem is your end

    Live sport is just about keeping Foxtel afloat, although you do have to wonder what would happen if the FTA networks finally decided to work together and build a "Freeview Sports" service which could potentially offset costs for some of those ever-increasing sports rights deals!

    @NNick_Valentine I sometimes consider leaving but am such a fan of tv, I would miss the streaming, freeview is just all crap now days.
