    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.

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

    @Complyorcry @Back_Two_Mee To @TalkTalk they are okay but the broadband is not a good as VM but it's okay; it cut the monthly bill in half. I have since dropped their tv service and bought a freeview recorder. Monthly bill for broadband/phone £38

  • 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.

    @Ozcan1945 @karl1953howman Unfortunely there is no more capacity left on freeview for this channel to return. The reason for the closure of Forces tv, were down to cost, Arqiva who owns the transmitters, need to encourage broadcasters to switchover from DVB T to DVB T 2 and bring cost down.

  • MartinCox0155 Martin 'Snazzy' Cox (@MartinCox0155) reported from Longford, England

    Anyone here who lives in London, who watches, or at least, can watch Freeview TV (terrestrial, rather than satellite/streamed TV), can you check whether it's working? I'm not home, so can't check. Wondering if there is a Crystal Palace transmitter problem. Thanks

    @RobWrig26119201 @4Music Only sucks that it’s not on freeview

  • dave1966uk dave1966uk 🇪🇺 🇬🇧 (@dave1966uk) reported

    @FreeviewTV Now next to useless. Lost CBS Drama to RealityXtra which is not available now in my area (Dover). Freeview says use Internet - newsflash - not everyone in the countryside has useable Internet. BT quoted me £143,000 .... No mobile signal either.

  • elizofbeth mr pither (@elizofbeth) reported

    Kurtsworld hats only ship to the usa. Hellraiser has been taken from me. Horror channel is gone and the new one aint on freeview. Grace is putting on family guy yet again Will my wounds never be allowed to heal …

  • MarkHem81023068 Mark Hemmings (@MarkHem81023068) reported

    @TJCSHOPPING I've watched TJC on freeview quite a few times and it's very mundane. Much more interesting is reading the consistently dreadful reviews customers leave. Damaged, inferior and missing goods, appalling customer service and so on ... Best avoided. #TJCSHOPPING

  • bradtrc brad (@bradtrc) reported

    @markfrommellor @BBCOne Let’s not forget - the viewing figures for Wimbledon - is that just figures for viewing from platforms like Freeview/Sky? If so, how many more watched on iPlayer and services like Red Button? We’ll never know though…

  • oliver_shergold Acid 🇺🇦 Mouse (@oliver_shergold) reported

    @Sparkypatrick Yes I saw that, Talk Talk the cheapest, never looked at Plusnet, just walked up to the precinct and set up new account, new contract, fed up with Freeview content so now at least got all the Sky channels plus catch up and record.

  • Agile_Sean Seán Massey (@Agile_Sean) reported

  • X_eON X_eON (@X_eON) reported
