  • 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

  • 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

  • SueWhitaker11 Sue Whitaker (@SueWhitaker11) reported

    @lenatrobins @Ursie27608090 Thanks ***, but it's not a retune issue. My Humax box does those automatically. 6% of the UK doesn't get GBNEWS on Freeview, & Buxton is amongst them 😬.

  • deacon_adrian Adrian Deacon (@deacon_adrian) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice what is going on with freeview all signals are down in #Northampton

  • paulofthepool Paulofthepool (@paulofthepool) reported

    @DeliaNGoG That is really low signal strength. Is this via an aerial or digitally? If an aerial looks like it's out of whack direction-wise. Had a storm? If using Freeview you probably will lose a lot if not got decent signal strength and only picking up from nearest transmitter.

  • B260Eb EB B260 (@B260Eb) reported

    @AnnSkelly3 I've been with Talktalk for years, never had a problem. Only thing with Virgin is you don't get your freeview channels on your TV. Woman I work for got changed over to them and now can't get the channels she watches

  • gazzaeuro Gary Spence (@gazzaeuro) reported

    @TBNUKtv Aww @TBNUKtv! I do think if you had a shop on the website selling cups and t-shirts e.t.c. you could raise a lot of funds to help stay broadcasting on Freeview.

  • steeleyp_ PS (@steeleyp_) reported

    @MisterQuintus @scottygb @SkyUK Why would they brand a free-to-air channel that would show non-premium programming? There's a good reason Pick isn't Sky-branded... because it's got nothing worth watching. They're hardly going to tarnish the brand by making Sky One a garbage Freeview brand

  • JimGilroy Jim ⚫️🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ 💙 (@JimGilroy) reported

    Wow! This thunderstorm is still doing it’s rounds. It’s even knocked our tv arial and satellite out. No signal on Freeview or Freesat. Thankfully I have a tv stick and an internet connection still.

  • bahookey4 Bahookey4 (@bahookey4) reported

    @B260Eb @AnnSkelly3 Cool , An elderly neighbor had same issue when she bought a TV with Freeview Inc , They installed it with Ariel to the TV not her Freeview box and she sat without TV for weeks thinking it was broken . Tbh they should've set this up for her when installing 👍

  • jamgyal Dan (@jamgyal) reported

    @liisa_agren @bbcproms @BBC It’s closed down on Freeview. I’ve got the option to cast it from the phone instead.)

  • parazoner You're Living In Thought So (@parazoner) reported

    @BaneNook The 10 minute freeview at 12am every night channel 546. Never did me any harm!
