    @FreeviewAU Since Freeview updated to 1.04 our Hisense 65S8 TV no longer allows the default electronic program guide (EPG) button to work. @HisenseAus advised this is a known issue with Freeview to fix. Is there a timeline on getting this resolved?

  • MsDJ1780 Ms DJ (@MsDJ1780) reported

    @piersmorgan Sounds like my Uncle!! Took him to get a ‘new tv’ (with freeview, etc built in). With purchase he got 6 free months of one plus 12 months of another. I set it all up straight away (inc. the freebies). Yet, he’s never even tried them - he’d rather moan that there’s nothing on TV!

    @a516digital Last time I contacted freeview about the issues, the lady suggested I buy a new scart lead, or my tvs the wrong type.

  • barton_22_ Barton (@barton_22_) reported

    @MiguelDelaney @david_conn It's on Sky, not freeview. Super league was a **** idea, sky, BT, UEFA all need to be seen as what they are, not the good guys

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital After freeview sent harry hill round to sort out my reception issue, I'm not going into again, I spent best part of £250 on an aerial to try and get proper local reception which doesnt work.

  • DobbieAline AlineRoseDobbie (@DobbieAline) reported

    @GBNEWS Sadly not there yet we have a Samsung smart ztV and have model number but finding indtructions not working so will phone Freeview helpline for instructions. We get to a certain level digital then channel and then problems

  • GeorgeBrownFFC George Brown (@GeorgeBrownFFC) reported

    The fact that the league cup final isn’t on freeview and instead they’re showing Burnley vs Wolves just shows the problems with big money in our game. What happened to champions league and europa league on ITV?

  • MarkBentley1966 Mark Bentley (@MarkBentley1966) reported

    @BooOMeringue @BumblingD I live very near to this house. Internet here is very poor. 8mb at ours. No Freeview signal to speak of either, plus we don't even have mains gas. There are many other benefits though.

    @NOWMusic Thank god its only for a short time, my sky dish won't pick up Now80's, its on one of the dodgy low frequencies, really going to miss it until its back on Freeview, you need to fix that sky frequency.
