    @GBNEWS I am subscribed to GB News on YouTube but can’t seem to get it live. Freeview 236 has no watchable signal this morning. Please can anyone advise?

  • burntcopper Heather Wallace (@burntcopper) reported from Falmouth, England

    People who have Freeview - is it just a one off cost for the box or subscription and can you record stuff? (Am trying to figure out tv options and can't get virgin and sky i think you need a dish. Aerial is crap here)

    Anyone having issues with BBC channels on Freesat channels? Ok on my Freeview. Checked cables and sat dish, but all seems fine. All other channels are fine, just BBC pixelating? SW Scotland here.

  • roasty88 Ryan McVeigh (@roasty88) reported

    @WrestlingCG1 @SCN_channel I would say that counts. on Freeview it is Channel 265 which should bring you to the vod365 menu and then you just search from there. Just a warning but I think the menu is absolutely awful to navigate.

    @AlanJon53947014 @albolt76 My BBC Freeview was down last week so i hashtagged both words and my oh my..... 😳👀 And thats my story.....

  • pipmadeley Pip (@pipmadeley) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Thanks but I've already tried that direct on the Freeview website. Says it's available in my area but clearly isn't. I also lost BBC Four HD and BBC News HD a couple of months ago. Aerial strength is 100% for other channels so no problems there. Pity.

    @InspireAndStyle @FreeviewAdvice Hi Karen, I had the same problem and I done a software update on my TV and reset the TV to default again after the update and it worked. You may also need to update the freeview app from your TV store (android play store) or LG store for example.

    @RealFloppyLion we were never able to pick up Channel Five on terrestrial, so we had four channels right up until we got Freeview

  • Outside_Margina Outside The Marginals (@Outside_Margina) reported

    How many channels does #C4 have on Freeview? Why can't they run their flagship news program (part of their Public Service) on time on the flagship channel? #c4news

    @InspireAndStyle Hi, Karen. If you're getting FVP-300 on all Freeview Play players, check to see if there's a software update available for your Freeview Play device. If you've done an update and the player are still not launching on the TV, contact the devices manufacturer for support
