Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Newport 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.

  • 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

  • jonnyhern Jonathan (@jonnyhern) reported from Pontypool, 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)

    @freesat_tv No, sorry. It's freeview. I appreciate your offer of support though nevertheless.

  • DickWinchester **** Winchester 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@DickWinchester) reported

    @jasonpwalk Never seen a TV with FreeSat built in only FreeView

  • bradley_steve Steve Bradley (@bradley_steve) reported

    @james__love @Dr_Eoin_Malcolm @Aontaithe2021 They wouldn't be able to geoblock the Freeview signal in Derry though. It's too near the border/Republic for that. It's easy to block on Sky, because they know exactly which jurisdiction cards are registered in.

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital How those years have gone by. The launch of freeview, after winning the commercial licences on dtt, after a disgraceful service from itv/on digital. But i look back on that, and remember the problems getting it. Etc.

  • StevenGothard Steven Gothard (@StevenGothard) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @janebadler Happy Christmas and New Year VV, I can't get forces tv on Freeview can you help me, please?.

  • CaelKatzi Katzi 🏳️‍🌈🦄 (@CaelKatzi) reported

    @arjoll @paulbrislen Too much distance and crap in the way, LoS is really bad due to terrain and trees. Can't even get Freeview HD - have to use the crap satellite version lol. Literally in my IT nightmare hellscape geographically. Gaming on ADSL2+ is painful, gaming + streaming = nogo.

  • joebloggz6 Terrorist Tea Pot (@joebloggz6) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi ,We have no Freeview in L24 no signal .

  • TerryON06144598 WBA58@terryoneill (@TerryON06144598) reported

    @TheRainbowStand We should be on freeview channel 20. The Drama channel, definitely not on Sky sports all the time. Even Quest don't bother too much anymore. I thought Pulis/Pardew/Sam was bad but it's even worse now. #Shambles

  • JohnnyDownes ❌Johnny Downes #FJB GETTR same handle (@JohnnyDownes) reported

    The Criminal (1960. Director: Joseph Losey. Stars Stanley Baker, Sam Wanamaker, Patrick Magee). Showing tonight on TPTV Freeview Channel 81. Great film. Look out for Colour Sgt Bourne as a bad guy.

  • lornypop Lorna Jane (@lornypop) reported from Wokingham, England

    So what’s on the telly today cause Christmas Day I ended up watching the Food Network channel, that provided more entertainment than the entire freeview network.
