    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)

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

    @GBNEWS @GBNEWS Are you aware the lip sync on Freeview has been really bad this evening? I hope it can be fixed.

  • MinnieM40 Clare Hutchins (@MinnieM40) reported

    Unfortunately despite receiving notifications from you, and speaking to customer service this afternoon, according to Yodel they still have not received my V6 box from yourselves. Tbh I feel like giving up now, just remove the second box from my package, I’ll stick with freeview

  • dougmcfarlane41 Douglas Mcfarlane (@dougmcfarlane41) reported

    Jeez 1330 and it's already getting dark!! Cold and windy feels like more snow on it's way. NO WAY OF GETTING WEATHER ALERTS OR FORECAST DUE TO LACK OF TV SIGNAL DUE TO ONGOING FREEVIEW TRANSMITTER FIRE

  • JCCottingham Jo Cottingham 🇬🇧#BorisIsMyPrimeMinister (@JCCottingham) reported

    @osteogenesis I’m on EE and haven’t had any trouble at all. Got my phone with them too on sim only. In fact it’s been so good I’m going to renew with them when it’s due. I’ve got a freeview box and shared Amazon Prime on a family thing.

  • WimpleUk Mr Wimple (@WimpleUk) reported

    With Virgin TV being down for last few days I must say I know people need internet but why anyone pays for TV (Virgin or Sky) is beyond me. More than enough on Freeview (inc plenty of cr@p). If you want sport/films just subscribe to NOW TV and dip in and out as you want.

  • AkShane47 shane Jones (@AkShane47) reported

    @virginmedia So even though services are restored I still have the issue like bad signal on freeview with an indoor aerial,I have reset the box multiple times with no improvement. Is this an issue for anyone else ?

  • JennyKayNZ Safety matters 💗💜💙 ⚽⚽⚽💉💉 (@JennyKayNZ) reported

    Doesn't ACT MP realise #ThreeWatersReform will address some of the infrastructure problems he says he's concerned about? Watching @NZParliament TV with Resource Management (Enabling #Housing Supply and Other Matters) Amendment Bill. Channel 31 on Freeview

  • alliethinks Allie Nickell (@alliethinks) reported

    @AtcherleyONS I’m not a Netflixer (or a Disney Channeller, etc,…) so will have to wait till it reappears on Freeview or treat myself to the dvd. I had IMDB open while I watched :-D.

  • stevend43829773 Stevend43829773 (@stevend43829773) reported

    @UKBabeChannels But why did studio 66 TV decided to close the service on Freeview, I loved watching studio 66 TV especially when Georgie Darby appeared on it and preeti_young also appeared on it too, but Preeti decided to leave S66 TV and when onto BS TV instead, tweet back to me
