    @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.

  • TinaEEWatts Tina Watts (@TinaEEWatts) reported from Canterbury, England

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

    @LGUKCare Hi, I've an LG smart TV. I've been trying to use channelbox on freeview 271. My hbbtv setting is on, but it still doesn't work. Google seems to suggest this is an LG problem. Can you advise please?

  • northernstock2 Kimberley Stock (@northernstock2) reported

    @BBC an issue the last 4 days with interference from Emley Moor TV Mast. It affects all BBC channels and cannot recieve some other channels especially channel 83 and others at that end of the freeview list upto 101. The HD channels are not affected. This is thru TV and digibox

  • Northern_Guru Steven A. Wall (@Northern_Guru) reported

    @virginmedia But it has still been out for 13 days so far. Also having to use Virgin Mobile data to check for updates on what amounts to a very lacklustre service. A neighbour has had to spend over £200 to get a freeview aerial fitted just so that his wife doesn’t miss her soaps.

    @TPTVEncore The new Freeview service is superb. Thanks. Interestingly, on my new Samsung TV the Encore prompt is on even during ad breaks. There's no way to get rid of it. It doesn't show at all on my Humax Freeview Play box yet works fine.

    @BorisJohnson How wonderful, how about sorting out the signal for our ancient techno, TV, can’t get a signal for Freeview & have had to have Sky for years despite new digi aerials & boosters & still have to pay for TV Licence!

  • FilmConnolly Phil(ip) Connolly (@FilmConnolly) reported from Eastbourne, England

    @MrAbelMagwitch A lot of University students also have access to "Box of Broadcasts" an online catchup service which can show tv programs from all the main freeview channels... they can stream BBC content on without needing a TV license.

    Ideas anyone My Freeview Co-Axel wire keeps filling up with water, so my #Freeview stops working how, do I fix it apart from sucking the water out daily, as that tastes dreadful.🤔

  • oldwarrenpoint Brian McCalmont (@oldwarrenpoint) reported

    @wilsondan @VodafoneUK @GeorgeMonbiot To be honest its actually the best network here (but not by much) Next choice from locals I have previously had conversations with is 3. We are in a "geographically challenged" area. We still only get basic Freeview telly for example - but we do get RTE so I dunno....

  • LuckyTarget Lucky Target Comics - back issue webstore (@LuckyTarget) reported

    Watching live Freeview for the first time in years and it is hour after hour, dozens of channels full of utter crap. How do people still watch this? Streaming has spoiled me.

  • Lauren66793666 Lauren Facall (@Lauren66793666) reported

    @dsoq They show it here in UK on Freeview talking pictures channel. I'd never seen it before.
