    @Virgin how do I go about leaving Virgin because I'm paying roughly £63.50 a month for a phone that I never use only to ring you up when there's a problem.. most of my viewing is on Freeview now and I have Amazon HD fire stick and Netflix account

  • 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 😂

    @a516digital I've been living over 3 years now without the right freeview, due to my location. I think your find BBC services are better than ITV when it comes to reception issues,

  • MadeleineAdams3 Maddy (@MadeleineAdams3) reported

    Hi @JohnLewisRetail - my mum has been without her broken freeview box since the end of June and no update. It’s with the manufacturer apparently. But her statutory rights mean she’s entitled to a replacement/ refund and her contract is with you. Really poor service.

    @stonecoldjohn73 Hi, You may receive your signal from another transmitter. Good news you have your Freeview reception restored. Please DM your postcode, house name/number if you require further advice. Kind Regards Melissa

  • WendyM53 WM53 #RuleBritannia #LandOfHopeAndGlory (@WendyM53) reported

    I take it we're not alone in all channels having no signal from the Bilsdale transmitter on @Freeview?

  • bigrego85 Rego™🇮🇹 (@bigrego85) reported

    Hi @FreeviewAdvice, I live in the North East of England (Middlesbrough) and my Freeview went off but when I ran another scan it's only found 34 channels when I once had over 150? My signal appears to have dropped also. Most of the 34 channels are unwatchable due to pixels. Help?

  • alimc42 ali (@alimc42) reported

    Secret life of the zoo is back at 8pm only i cant watch it as the stupid bilsdale mast decided to have a fire 😡😡😡 and knock freeview out

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    Freeview and radio services in North Yorkshire and Teesside have been affected by a complete loss of service at Bilsdale transmitter. Services fell off air at 1:26pm this afternoon. Viewers are advised not to retune.

  • Alan1_iow Alan (@Alan1_iow) reported

    @itvcalendar @ITV Wow! TV transmitters don't usually catch fire. The structure is metal, so it will be the equipment at the foot of the mast that's will be the problem. It will mean no Freeview for the area it serves.

  • iamian16 iamian16 (@iamian16) reported

    @Mark56623345 @a516digital Bilsdale is a primary mast serving North Yorks, Teesside, Co. Durham and some of Tyne & Wear. Unless you can redirect your aerial and get a signal from Emley Moor or Pontop you’re stuffed for Freeview.
