    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)

  • 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.

    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

    @FreeviewAdvice so freeview is taking several channels off the service. What a load of rubbish. Your service is now becoming a very poor second to the likes of freesat. pixleation issues bad affected by weather and if you live near railways or airports useless.

    @oliwrath we only have BBC Wales and BBC Cymru I think Is this why I could never find a radio station on FM to listen to united commentary on the train home from Manchester? 😭 I was scrapping with Freeview last week because for some reason they send me Liverpool TV & Grenada reports

  • FWestfield Francis Westfield (@FWestfield) reported

    Is the service down webpage states no problems with freeview today. Odd as my signal still has not returned. If this continues for one more week I will dispense with my TV licence and watch DVD's and videos and use my laptop.

    Phoned freeview helpline. They did not recognise the web page talking of issues since 4pm yesterday. They also suggested not due to the weather in the West Midlands. So I am back to square one. I expect it will sort it self out.i give up at this point.

  • I_Am_Artemis Artemis Aye. (@I_Am_Artemis) reported

    Aww man I've lost the freeview signal on the TV and I don't know why 😭

  • FWestfield Francis Westfield (@FWestfield) reported

    Freeview were right about one thing. It was a webpage called: is the service down.

    @ECOWARRIORSS Besides, what about places without high-speed Internet access? At least Freeview is available in places where cellular and Internet signals aren't... What a terrible and misguided plan.

  • Cydonia59 Jim Bennett (@Cydonia59) reported
