    @Thomoli @PhilipsCare_UK I’ve been waiting 8 weeks for same issue not worked for me since I bought my TV. I dont have an aeriel tho just satellite cable connected & internet but no catch up aps work or freeview

  • MichaelLeeLewi4 Michael Lee Lewis (@MichaelLeeLewi4) reported from Aberdare, Wales

    @kieranjameen Kieran cancel it, my sister did with hers and hasn't missed it, you can buy internet freeview boxes now and you can download all the apps onto them, no monthly payments then, just for what you choose to, much cheaper

  • IanCleverly06 Ian Cleverly (@IanCleverly06) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    Just an FYI @DMAX_UK but you've just showed Series 3 Ep10 of #Archer, when the Freeview EPG (and your website) has you showing the correct in order Ep 9. It has the same down for the Sat midnight showing (ie Ep 10 is listed in you'll show Ep 9)

  • oitappin Dan Tappin (@oitappin) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @DooHopper Pick will be an interesting case, no hd an awful picture on Freeview, good slot number but not much heft from Sky to push it.

  • DaveBStDW Dave Bowden (@DaveBStDW) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk Hi Aaron, I am in complete disbelief as to how long this takes to resolve. I don’t care who resolves it & not my problem he’s not in. I’m paying full price for freeview! I demand compensation and a quick resolve as this is just embarrassing for @bt_uk

  • MeurigRogers Morgan Barber-Rogers #FBPE melt and centrist dad (@MeurigRogers) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bethanjenkins Project Kangaroo became YouView. It wasn’t shut down because it was a ppv model - it was meant to be like an online Freeview. It was shut down because it was deemed unfair competition for private companies. Who are now all Americans.

  • KAK_Tweets Krys Cross! Cha Cha Real Smooth (@KAK_Tweets) reported from Treorchy, Wales

    @flickeringflxme I’ve never seen that one myself but somehow my granddad ended up buying it for himself which was made weirder by the fact he only had freeview so didn’t even have Disney Channel. He loved it though

  • dave_maydew Dave Maydew MW0DCM (@dave_maydew) reported from Tonyrefail, Wales

    @FreeviewAdvice @arqiva More disappointed, but I suppose I've got to accept it, after totally cutting the cord. I do have a tech question though. I'm using the Plex Media Server for Freeview, but the supplied EPG by Gracenote is terrible, is there a XML file of the one you use on the Android app

  • GeorgeBaldwin14 George Baldwin (@GeorgeBaldwin14) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    And has been mentioned before, I and I'm sure many others would never have followed rugby without the Six Nations being free to watch and having it on freeview year after year

  • JAM_WAH Jamie Roberts (@JAM_WAH) reported

    @jamiesmart That's maybe more unsettling than a ghost! About 10 years ago I would wake up every night at exactly 3am without fail. 3am being the devil's hour or something. Freaked me out after a month or so. Turned out the Freeview box updated and made a noise.

  • AdorabullyBadge SGT BadgEner #TeamBadger (@AdorabullyBadge) reported

    @tweetypie54 🙄 nae gud at all oot telly ain't tae bad even thou only got councilview aka Freeview

  • carew_deborah Deborah Carew (@carew_deborah) reported

    Hmm, mobile network, WiFi and freeview all playing up today!! Not sure if this tweet will post. 👀 Anybody else experiencing tech issues?

  • HeidiRoseC Heidirose Calandra (@HeidiRoseC) reported

    @MoneySavingExp Can't get a good freeview signal so got Freesat. Very happy with it. Seriously underrated

  • gempinkheart Captain Sandy (@gempinkheart) reported

    @digitalspy No problems on Freeview

  • brian_damage brian_damage (@brian_damage) reported

    @a516digital Will this incident have resulted in lower Freeview signal strength? (Getting almost no signal from Wenvoe)

  • HiFranc Francisco (@HiFranc) reported

    @KellyQuilt Do you use Freeview/Freesat or a paid for service? If the latter, may be time to switch to the former?

  • PrehistoricCat Tracy 💙 (@PrehistoricCat) reported

    @ShanghaiHannah @Channel4 @BritishBakeOff Would be nice to be able to watch it full stop. Channel 4 and Film 4 not working on Freeview.

  • rivier Julie Hull (@rivier) reported

    Looks like Chanbel 4 on Freeview has just gone tits-up AGAIN. Damn it, I’ll have to rejoin Virgin at this rate!

  • GarySyms Gary #NHSPay15 💙🌍🌈💖 (@GarySyms) reported

    @skindeep1956 @TheNorthernEcho Absolutely agree with you, I've phoned Freeview, TV Licence, even Arqiva, & just constantly getting fobbed off by people who don't have a clue. 8 weeks now with no TV services at all! Bilsdale mast fire caused by overloading a 52 year old transmitter & poor maintenance!
