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

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

  • daguvernor tommy harper (@daguvernor) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia once again trying to contact virgin media is a no go a proper waste of time contract has run out trying to cancel they have put the money up to £60 a month for basically 2 freeview boxes I have cancelled my direct debit which is due on the 7 april what a scam😡

  • themib Martin Bentley, AKA Martin Bentley (@themib) reported from London, England

    Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

  • Marmalord Marmalord (the) (@Marmalord) reported from Epsom and Ewell District, England

    @itvhub Humax FVP-4000T 1TB Freeview Set Top Box Recorder, and having to sign in more or less every time is making us all dislike Martin Freeman

  • Beige29 DarkBeige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    Now I have the truly truly shit @EE freeview package (literally the worst selection of channels on earth but boy is it cheap broadband) I only watch the main 5 channels or SVOD. W, Dave, ITV2 etc are dead to me

  • JensFallesen Jens Fallesen (@JensFallesen) reported from Hounslow, England

    @leksi_p Correct. If you do not have Freeview, Sky or Virgin (or any other cable service), you should not need to pay if you never watch it.

  • Tommy_M_E_J Tom Jordan (@Tommy_M_E_J) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @njvns That’s so shit. It’s literally called freeview and yet it’s not free

  • Scare158Steve Scarebear (@Scare158Steve) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @bt_uk Thanks for the help. I spoke to freeview, tried a few things which didn't work but i contacted your TV help and after doing a few basic things somehow it appears to be working now! Very Strange. Tks

  • EranE1980 Eran Edry (@EranE1980) reported from Camden Town, England

    @FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

  • vjlorenzato Victoria Lorenzato (@vjlorenzato) reported from Brentford, England

    Catholic Twitter UK- help please! Anyone know of a Mass being broadcast on TV tomorrow ( not via internet) Lovely elderly lady has Freeview but no internet.... TIA!

  • Beige29 Dark_Beige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    @Disco_Squirrel I’ve got the shitty EE freeview box and it’s one of the apps on there, but never used

  • fishinthedark1 fishinthedark (@fishinthedark1) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

  • PlexNetflix Martin Phillp 🔶 (@PlexNetflix) reported from Camberwell, England

    My broadband has gone down, so stuck watching QVC on Freeview.

  • omotforest david sinfield #pssc (@omotforest) reported from West Molesey, England

    To be honest, when you've removed the dependency of other real time tv, i cant see many people chipping in. Many will be paying just to watch their subscription service or Freeview.

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @LushJEL I'm not much of a TV person as I don't really like it, but I found channel 83 on Freeview TV which is NOW The 80s, so some nights I just have it on in the background, lots of crap but also some good old ones 👍

  • crazycol Colin Wiseman (@crazycol) reported from Ealing, England

    @stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.

  • nessymon Nessy 😷 (@nessymon) reported from London, England

    @MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.

  • Beige29 Beige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    @loudouglas75 I have such shit freeview I only have itv2+1

  • niklasRen Nik Rahmel (@niklasRen) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @Stephen_Neal Good shout! If we just take the Freeview/Freesat ones, we get to ten, excluding the National ones: 1) BBC One 2) BBC Two 3) BBC Four 4) CBBC 5) CBeebies 6) BBC News 7) BBC Parliament 8) Dave 9) Drama 10) Yesterday But they aren’t licence fee funded, so don’t help the argument.

  • budgie Lee 'Budgie' Barnett (@budgie) reported from Richmond, England

    @DrRacheal @FreeviewTV When I had problems with Freeview, I found their helpline - when I eventually managed to get through to someone - very helpful. Took me step-by-step through the stuff I could check and solved it for me.

Freeview Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • robinjuste Robin Juste Emery (@robinjuste) reported

    @HobbyMakerTV My Freesat TV is showing Jewellery Maker on channel 807. Do I need to retune, or are you having distribution issues? Freeview is fine.

  • PATVOne1 P.A.T.V. Scunthorpe (@PATVOne1) reported

    @JillStuart17 While it is currently under investigation by Ofcom to decide whether it has broken the impartiality rule, RT still holds a valid licence to broadcast, so cannot be removed by Freeview (or Sky), otherwise they'd be the ones breaking Ofcom's code.

  • WHBrigzy WHBrigzy (@WHBrigzy) reported

    @PaulJCobbe Should be on BBC TWO. This broadcast has been terrible shite all night and when they said switch to BBC TWO what if the broadcasting had failed to carry on for arguments sake and miss something! End of the day, its freeview so news can go any channel! Dont see your problem on it

  • Woolychops Mrs W. Chops (@Woolychops) reported

    @missy_molly_mol Quite possibly one of the worst freeview channels available.

  • Cameron_Pirie Cameron Pirie (@Cameron_Pirie) reported

    @georgegalloway Yep, just disappeared from Freeview with the message ‘This service is not available’. Temporary blip or state shenanigans??

  • MediaBoyUK Media Boy UK (@MediaBoyUK) reported

    If anyone is reply to me CAN you tell me what network you are on? Freeview (only got RT in SD), Sky HD, Freeview HD or Freesat. Thank you

  • HooliganFlaz Christian ❄ (@HooliganFlaz) reported

    @georgegalloway Not working on Freeview...was couple of hours ago.

  • letstalkcycling G Hofman (@letstalkcycling) reported

    @CalumLonie @SendRaces @writebikerepeat yes issue in 2021 was not only was it now on eurosport (rather than freeview channel l'equipe) but also they put alot of it online/app only so even with channel it often wasn't on

  • MediaBoyUK Media Boy UK (@MediaBoyUK) reported

    *RT (SD channel) was removed by Sky EPG before 12:45pm on March 2nd. Media Boy HQ will update this post when we get more information on Sky HD. Freeview, Freeview HD and Freesat removing RT from their network. Do not like this post as I will removed this post when I am updating

  • gercastle Gerry Mc Namara (@gercastle) reported

    @oconnellhugh Even for @oconnellhugh this is low. Jaysus wept talk about scrapping the barrel. You would fit well into #PutinsPuppets in the #Kremlin writing for #pravda youre a ***££££ disease. The channel is RT, it's on freeview mind you they wouldn't give you a job because you're a retard.
