    @FreeviewAdvice Well, after waiting 2 weeks for a Freeview engineer we are told we need a new aerial. Also, they can’t help us because we have Sky! So they change Winter Hill and now we have to pay. Why didn’t they say this 3 weeks ago...😳

    @gary_worden @cjssydney @cptcapitalg @FrogAlaPeche Poor people either don't have a TV or watch freeview.

  • PaulW_1 Paul Williams✈️ (@PaulW_1) reported from Sale, England

    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

  • groovicat groovicat 💚 (@groovicat) reported from Adlington, England

    @Sillyshib Heartbeat, ssshhh, it's never been off. You can watch Heartbeat every day on freeview

  • MaryMares81 mary whitfield (@MaryMares81) reported from Salford, England

    @FreeviewAdvice we have lost the majority of freeview channels having retuned a few times. Used the availability checker which says channels should be available, can you help? Thanks

  • Northern_Steve Steve, just Steve (@Northern_Steve) reported from Manchester, England

    @mickmcfc1 I'll never know. I've pulled the cable out. BBC Parliament on freeview only from now on. They talk absolute bollocks but rarely about football. I'm in!

  • quodignoratum Myles Winstone (@quodignoratum) reported from Warrington, England

    @TalkingPicsTV Definitely. We struggle getting Freeview and as you’re not on BT TV I’m missing my fix!

  • thelobsterboy Paul Smith (@thelobsterboy) reported from Manchester, England

    I love these Freeview updates. Each time I rescan the television I seem to lose additional channels! I'm down to QVC, Free Sports and That's 70s and it's only 3pm!

  • garethrichmond5 Gareth Richmond (@garethrichmond5) reported from Bury, England

    If anyone needs a football fix Copenhagen are playing some other Danish club behind closed doors on Freeview 64...... is this what it’s come to😂

  • m7leicauser Andy Barton (@m7leicauser) reported from Comberbach, England

    @FreeviewTV Thanks to Dan at Freeview, the aerial-out retune x2 seems to have cured the problem. 👍

  • collegeflunky Sean Vickers (@collegeflunky) reported from Radcliffe, England

    @FreeviewAdvice any advice?Unable to watch terrestrial tv properly since Winter Hill update in August. Retuned Humax box and Hisense tv numerous times but still an issue #winterhill #freeview #

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • ProperChelsPete Peter H (@ProperChelsPete) reported

    @BlueTinted_LB @sidcelery @grahamefendle HD channels on Freeview usually better than equivalent on Freesat as there’s no compression. (I always switch from satellite to freeview to watch stuff on bbc for this reason) *signal can degrade so depends on distance from transmitter and other disclaimers.

  • rainbow7uk rainbow7uk (@rainbow7uk) reported

    @DorsetCouple @desertcactus100 @BBCOne Watch UK freeview channel 66. Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN). Evangelical Christian Channel.

  • pilgra01 Alf (@pilgra01) reported

    @GBNEWS Once people cancel the Sky or Virgin or BT tv packages and just watch Freeview - if they are still in poverty maybe some Domestic Science lessons on how to cook from ingredients - easy

  • qvcuk QVC UK (@qvcuk) reported

    @avraam2000 Hi Maria, apologies for any disappointment. If your TV does not support HD content, you can still watch via your aerial (i.e. Freeview) as we will still be in SD for there. We also have online streaming available via the QVC app or using the desktop version of our website. Joe

  • firebird7X3 Firebird7x3 #FBPE #FBPA #FBPR #FBPPR #StuffBrexit (@firebird7X3) reported

    @Helenmacca @helenamayb @NadineDorries They both make a lot of content these days but channel four already does that Big question is will it become subscription outside the TV licence in which case they will be depriving Freeview viewers of several channels & an online streaming service, hardly fair & worth pushing

  • IanTurnberry IanC 🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🌈 (@IanTurnberry) reported

    I'm going to treat myself to a big bar of chocolate today. Apart from being a clever little boy FINALLY setting up my new TV and Freeview Recorder and Google Laptop I also had good news on my diabetes, still OK and my blood pressure, normal. Umm maybe chocolate isn't a good idea

  • SLH68141003 Noname (@SLH68141003) reported

    @Ingear @LucyMPowell You can on freeview. Which old and poor people like me have. Hands off C4!🤬🤬😡

  • CorriganPaul Paul Corrigan (@CorriganPaul) reported

    @MediaGuido @netflix That is a false equivalence given geographic spread of their markets. If Ch4, Beeb & ITV had used Freeview and their channels more effectively they could have brought Sky to their knees. An ITV bid seems like a great idea but gov support to gain funds for expansion sensible too

  • murcanpolitics 'Murcan Politics (@murcanpolitics) reported

    @TheWestonMike @JohnJCrace @gordonrlove Ah, yeah you so need a license to watch Freesat or Freeview live. Not if you watch All4 though. That's a streaming service which you don't need a license for. My bad.

  • 3Legs4Wheels 3Legs4Wheels (@3Legs4Wheels) reported

    @alexstanger1993 @C4Sport The best/worst one was a Freeview retune that took ITV4 off terrestrial TV over here so people actually struggle to watch the TT
