    @SkyHelpTeam It’s back on now. You aren’t sympathetic to those in financial difficulty though. Customer service rubbish. If it weren’t for the fact there’s no Freeview signal here and no Virgin I wouldn’t keep the contract on (although the last lady I spoke to was good I will say)

  • Nacelle1701 Helen (@Nacelle1701) reported

    Looks like this @SkyUK pin requirement is utter crap when I can go to the same programme requiring a pin on sky that is on freeview at the exact same time without having to put in a pin! @SkyHelpTeam

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi In the Last 2 Weeks my Freeview Signal keeps Breaking down RH20 Post Code Heathfield Transmitter, Evenings are worse than daytime, is there an issue causing this, or could it be the Cold Weather affecting the Signal..Regards..

    @UKTVPlayHelp All the other streaming apps work ok, iPlayer, ITV X, All 4, My 5, aswell as Netflix and Amazon Prime Video. The problem is only with the Freeview Play platform.

    @AlanJohnson1959 @LeeHurstComic Its awful. I only watch the food network on freeview, other than i only use prime for shows/movies as living in a rural place it saves me a fortune on fuel for deliveries

    @micronautsFan @NoContextBrits To be fair up until about 20 years ago (roughly) we had 5 whole channels haha. When satellite TV came in then Freeview as I am sure you know, it all changed but we never had the US style 200+ cable channels until quite late on.

  • animallovercat2 Alison (@animallovercat2) reported

    Well. I'm glad I didn't see Mama Mia 2 at the cinema. Just saw some of it on Freeview. What a pile of ****. Nothing like that first one.

  • HewiEdwards Wayne Edwards (@HewiEdwards) reported

    @UKTVPlayHelp Hi, it is via the Freeview Play platform, which is a pre-installed app. There is no dedicated UKTV Play app in the Philips Saphi app store. The problem seems to occur on all UKTV channels. The last time it was working, was probably about 1 month ago, that I can remember.

  • DDubya82 Daniel Whittle (@DDubya82) reported

    @davechannel @NEReviews Watching on freeview transmitting from winter hill. It’s not isolated to this one programmes it’s multiple programmes, QI, house of games, travel man, and last night, the Bad Boys II movie. This is being watched on a panasonic TV with integrated freeview.
