    @downdetector our film 4 snd film 4 +1 had gone down on freesat (not freeview)

  • margatesunsets Fiona K. (@margatesunsets) reported from Margate, England

    @dancludlow Never thought of it even. Not that worried, there'll be a solution. It supposedly has Freesat & Freeview on it. Will have to try to get D's son out here, if he ever stays still, he'll know! TV is 2020 model, hardly top of the range but good enough for me.

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

    The Bilsdale Quarry temporary transmitter failed at just before 1:45pm this afternoon. Freeview is advising affected viewers to not retune. Normal service continues from relay transmitters in the area, which are using a satellite back-up to maintain services.

  • RobertsonG Graeme (@RobertsonG) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Their helpline guy said that the issue might be with Freeview and that the mast was secure. I can get Free view from Eston Nab. Please between you get it sorted.

    Jeez 1330 and it's already getting dark!! Cold and windy feels like more snow on it's way. NO WAY OF GETTING WEATHER ALERTS OR FORECAST DUE TO LACK OF TV SIGNAL DUE TO ONGOING FREEVIEW TRANSMITTER FIRE

  • Stuart_1992 Stuaгt (@Stuart_1992) reported

    @petemorristwit I still have the same issue with Freeview. At least with analogue you could receive a poor signal instead of one that breaks up completely. I'm so glad we have a satellite dish now.

  • OsullivanUk Mike O'Sullivan (@OsullivanUk) reported

    @googlenesthelp Hey Google... No, nothing like that at all. Just an old (Humax) Freeview recorder, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and a (non-smart) Panasonic blu-ray player. All powered off at time of issue. Couple of other people raised it as issue a few days ago on the Google TV forum also.

  • walder_paul Paul walder (@walder_paul) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice @FactsStomp No signal to freeview on the coast of mablethorpe,Lincolnshire. Any idea when this will be rectified please.?

  • WimpleUk Mr Wimple (@WimpleUk) reported

    With Virgin TV being down for last few days I must say I know people need internet but why anyone pays for TV (Virgin or Sky) is beyond me. More than enough on Freeview (inc plenty of cr@p). If you want sport/films just subscribe to NOW TV and dip in and out as you want.

  • MinnieM40 Clare Hutchins (@MinnieM40) reported

    Unfortunately despite receiving notifications from you, and speaking to customer service this afternoon, according to Yodel they still have not received my V6 box from yourselves. Tbh I feel like giving up now, just remove the second box from my package, I’ll stick with freeview

  • _Jack_Graham_ Time's Carcass💀☭🏺 (@_Jack_Graham_) reported

    @duckbunnyben I don't have cable or Freeview or Sky, or any TV coming in at all. So if I cancel my iPlayer account, I should be able to not pay?

  • AkShane47 shane Jones (@AkShane47) reported

    @virginmedia So even though services are restored I still have the issue like bad signal on freeview with an indoor aerial,I have reset the box multiple times with no improvement. Is this an issue for anyone else ?
