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

    @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.

  • Nigelh7n Nigel Hurneyman (@Nigelh7n) reported

    @Ofcom Is this going to further reduce #Freeview's terrestrial service?

  • dianne2177 diane49 (@dianne2177) reported

    @EricLDaugh yes, we have the same issue in the UK, it called freeview that includess BBC, ITV, C4

  • DavidLongbenton David Alexander (@DavidLongbenton) reported

    @irisfurnham @Jenny_1884 There'd still be freeview....==loads of other channels. People only using "Freeview" have to pay the BBC to watch "free" channels even if they never watch BBC, the system is corrupt.

    @ITVX hi any idea what is wrong with itvx freeview . Tried to watch something and it flashes a message saying the problem is your end

  • HorribleGrandma Dave Stott (@HorribleGrandma) reported

    @CountMoriarty @anon_opin A massive problem is also the decision to put BBC Three online-only. It was a hotbed of innovatio, and they took it away from young adults with a freeview box.
