    @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.

    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 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

    @BTCare -Hi,My Dads BTTV started today but he can only get BBC & Subscription channels,all other Freeview channels not working,95% signal strength & neighbouring flat uses same Aerial & has all channels. Tried your website for help but nothing, is there any other ways to get help

  • SamuelJohnsnon Samuel Johnson (@SamuelJohnsnon) reported

    @StevenFewster @t25bear @StenaLine The only hassle I encountered: terrestrial TV signal differs, so FreeView TVs don't work except in NI & near border & incompatible w Irish SaorView. But easily resolved w an inexpensive external satellite combo box. Seems you can even keep UK driving licence after all.

  • TheAerialManUK The Aerial Man (@TheAerialManUK) reported

    @La_Duff Look up common IP address & Subnet, DNS etc settings for your TV model on the internet & manually change them on the TV's Network settings, I used to have to re-set those settings all the time on my Freeview TV recorder box to get it to connect to my old router,

    @Liophora Yeah, I have a TV package for... ...****, I only watch Doctor Who. Not really worth the TV package. May just go Freeview

  • Jhall_Images James Hall Images (@Jhall_Images) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Having some issues with Freeview in leeds - LS14, lost quite a few channels, very poor signal one the ones still working. Retuning has not helped. BBC2 gone, all HD channels gone, poor signal on the rest of them. All good on my side of things...

  • thunderratz The Lazy Mentor 💙 (@thunderratz) reported

    I might live in London but my TV can't get a whole load of Freeview channels. I rescan every few days. Sometimes some channels reappear. Sometimes they disappear. Sometimes my signal gets worse. May as well live in a rural area. I'd probably have the same signal.

  • sherwooder Richard (@sherwooder) reported

    @YouViewSupport Non-sub BT DTR-T2100 ok this morning. 2pm no Freeview channels 0% signal. Aerial direct into TV-all channels OK. Tried maintenance-zero happens after Step3 except 'Waking Up' ... After 3\4 cycles of waking up Youview loads. Retuning gives 0 aerial channels. Help?
