Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Maidstone and nearby locations:

  • LexFuturus LexFuturus (@LexFuturus) reported from Longfield, England

    Terrible streaming quality via YouTube! @btsport should have made it freeview #UCLfinal

  • Davidp1103 Davidp (@Davidp1103) reported from Snodland, England

    Continually frustrated by @TalkTalk and its inconsistent service and performance. Have today purchased a freeview recorder to replace their box and will be actively looking for new broadband provider.

  • robinjuste Robin Juste Emery (@robinjuste) reported from Gillingham, England

    Fog risk and disruption to TV and radio transmissions. Expect some lost Freeview or low signal channels on some mornings next week! #KentWeather @AffinityDJ @AffinityKent

  • Davidp1103 David-19 (@Davidp1103) reported from Gravesend, England

    @TalkTalk It would be nice if you could reduce or remove a £40 charge for an engineer who called but made no inspection of equipment, explained that Freeview channels had been altered; a fact that your customer services were not aware of, but should have known.

    @mediaguardian If I were working @Channel4 I'd be plotting a plan for entire workforce to walk out en masse, set up a new, non profit, charitable foundation trust, then obtain digital licenses for a reborn Network 4 (eg taking over the Freeview/public slot used by failing local city stations).

  • Marktnewbold Mark Newbold (@Marktnewbold) reported

    @secondtierpod When your Freeview reception is poor

  • sparkywebdev sparky (@sparkywebdev) reported

    @GBNEWS My parents are nearly 70. They do not want and will never get the Internet apart from on their phones. Their TV in the bedroom broke but they still use freeview boxes. Try to buy a new 40" TV that doesn't need the internet.. its impossible. Telly really is dead already..

  • swinksnz Logan Swinkels 🎙🏒🎮 (@swinksnz) reported

    @AndrewP32596916 @ESPNAusNZ Otherwise, the game is also on Māori TV. I don’t have Freeview, so the ESPN app using a Sky Go login is the only way.

  • back_the_BBC Back the BBC 📺📻📡📱 (@back_the_BBC) reported

    @NightEthereal @JohnDon84246724 You can't implement a subscription service without removing universal, free to air access over radio and Freeview. So millions would lose access. The idea behind a standard charge is government can't control it

  • Andyging Andy Clayton (@Andyging) reported

    @nedboulting @ITV4 Would love to watch some of your coverage but the picture quality on @ITV4 via freeview is so bad it’s unwatchable

  • wrobexee1 Mike Weir (@wrobexee1) reported

    @Stuart_NashMP Not only is the customer service rubbish, but the Freeview forums where there are messages about the issue from other people, Freeview seem to not care in the slightest. I am almost about to give up and flag free to air altogether. the news and shows I watch are unwatchable

  • scovelljohn John Scovell (@scovelljohn) reported

    @ClearAsChloe I've never seen it as I only have Freeview TV. I know there are lots of references to Stephen King including the title. Still, one day I will get to see it!!

  • BobScot48804242 Bob Scott (@BobScot48804242) reported

    @neilbelieves Not seen it, it's on the list though. I remember it being quite controversial at the time here in the UK but I never bothered with it. Now I want to check it out, it's never available on freeview 🙄

  • francophile2004 Rosalind Peacock (@francophile2004) reported

    @cindyclareb @nedboulting ps get yourself a Freesat/Freeview box from Amazon. About £30. Works a treat...
