@Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

@Claire_Pickard @sueashton3000 Many residents in Sunderland & along the Durham Coast also receive Freeview Channels from the Bilsdale transmitter. The fire is also likely to have knocked out about 30 relay stations, which "feed" on signals from Bilsdale. I wouldn't like to climb up the transmitter to fix it!

@MannieMighty1 And yet they will all watch her again next Thursday. I won't complain about her as I never watch her. At least 100 channels on Freeview and my TV has an off button.

Just checked my freeview recorder as the tv tonight looks rubbish. My options appear to be - cheesy early 00s teen drama - bits of wrestling - murders, murders, serial killers, true crime and murder. I may have a problem.

Interesting after 2 days of zero TV reception, as mysteriously as it vanished it is now back. I can guess there was a problem somewhere with an antenna that fed into our valley. #Freeview when it works.

@mags324 Same here really. We have old aerials up on the roof but no good for digital tv. I have an indoor one that works with Freeview but once I retire and we need to cut down on tv costs, I will probably get a decent one put on the roof and stop paying for tv.

You need to have a webpage showing realtime Freeview problems. It's a huge waste of time trying to guess if Freeview is working in tropo affected parts of the country. @FreeviewAdvice @Ofcom
