  • DaveBStDW 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

  • 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

  • uncriticalsimon Simon 🥑🚟🚅😈💉💉💉 (@uncriticalsimon) reported from Newport, Wales

    .@Freeview question - how come the PSB muxes aren’t treated equally? The BBC one and the HD one seem to have a much better signal from Wenvoe than the “normal” ITV one. (I can get Mendip off a random bit of metal.)

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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)

  • uncriticalsimon Simon 🤖 (@uncriticalsimon) reported from Newport, Wales

    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.

  • 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.

  • Gramblera Colin Clanger (@Gramblera) reported

    @Blairskiboy @ChristineJameis Al Jazeera better RT was OK (except for Putin fairytale ****) but erasing them from sky & Freeview is a good thing in the current circumstances.

  • DJMidarezaki DJ Midarezaki, Esq. 🇬🇧🇺🇦🇨🇦🇭🇰🇹🇼 (@DJMidarezaki) reported

    @frankotron @HouseofCommons @NadineDorries That may or may not have affected the Freeview stream, which was also taken down.

  • daryl_millar Daryl Millar (@daryl_millar) reported

    @CameronYardeJnr @toniearlybird This sounds like there won't be a joint streaming service from the main Freeview broadcasters.

  • hypnodan Dan Jones (@hypnodan) reported

    @helenmccusker @neighbours Had the same problem, watched it all the time on BBC, then it went to channel 5 and I couldn't get C5 so had years of missing it and then have never watched C5 since having Freeview & don't buy TV guides anymore so have no idea what is on normal TV & never watch live TV anymore

  • knigma Mark Knight (@knigma) reported

    @Rob_Pullinger @GBNEWS Damn good idea @GBNEWS, can you now HD on Freeview?

  • thotfulwalrus Ricky (@thotfulwalrus) reported

    Wow I've finally see a @PlutoTV advert for #StarTrekDiscovery on freeview and I still dont want to watch it without a VOD service.

  • festa197 *** 🇬🇧 (@festa197) reported

    RT channel on Freeview reads. This service is currently not available.

  • AngleseyPete Pete Baars (@AngleseyPete) reported

    @Dez45346395 @alan_shaefer EU ban means Luxembourg based SES shut down their feed of RT. Sky and FreeSat receive their feed from SES, it's likely that Freeview received from the same source.
