Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Hayes and nearby locations:

  • crazycol Colin Wiseman (@crazycol) reported from Ealing, England

    @stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @LushJEL I'm not much of a TV person as I don't really like it, but I found channel 83 on Freeview TV which is NOW The 80s, so some nights I just have it on in the background, lots of crap but also some good old ones 👍

  • daguvernor tommy harper (@daguvernor) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia once again trying to contact virgin media is a no go a proper waste of time contract has run out trying to cancel they have put the money up to £60 a month for basically 2 freeview boxes I have cancelled my direct debit which is due on the 7 april what a scam😡

  • Beige29 DarkBeige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    Now I have the truly truly shit @EE freeview package (literally the worst selection of channels on earth but boy is it cheap broadband) I only watch the main 5 channels or SVOD. W, Dave, ITV2 etc are dead to me

  • JensFallesen Jens Fallesen (@JensFallesen) reported from Hounslow, England

    @leksi_p Correct. If you do not have Freeview, Sky or Virgin (or any other cable service), you should not need to pay if you never watch it.

  • Beige29 Beige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    @loudouglas75 I have such shit freeview I only have itv2+1

  • fishinthedark1 fishinthedark (@fishinthedark1) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

  • Tommy_M_E_J Tom Jordan (@Tommy_M_E_J) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @njvns That’s so shit. It’s literally called freeview and yet it’s not free

  • nessymon Nessy 😷 (@nessymon) reported from London, England

    @MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

  • budgie Lee 'Budgie' Barnett (@budgie) reported from Richmond, England

    @DrRacheal @FreeviewTV When I had problems with Freeview, I found their helpline - when I eventually managed to get through to someone - very helpful. Took me step-by-step through the stuff I could check and solved it for me.

  • themib Martin Bentley, AKA Martin Bentley (@themib) reported from London, England

    Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

  • psnow85 Peter Snow (@psnow85) reported from Arkley, England

    @Samantha_J_Rea Hmm not to sure about freeview but definitely freesat it’s been taken off for over a year. Probably the same though. Sucks big time. Anyway. Hope you are well.

  • ProfJohnEllis John Ellis (@ProfJohnEllis) reported from Egham, England

    @MariaMichalis @All4 C4 is in talks to join Britbox... and you get surveillance on any streaming service, even ad funded. That’s how they can target the ads and tell you where your nearest car dealership is (new in All4). Only Freeview lets you keep anonymity

  • Beige29 Dark_Beige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    @Disco_Squirrel I’ve got the shitty EE freeview box and it’s one of the apps on there, but never used

  • niklasRen Nik Rahmel (@niklasRen) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @Stephen_Neal Good shout! If we just take the Freeview/Freesat ones, we get to ten, excluding the National ones: 1) BBC One 2) BBC Two 3) BBC Four 4) CBBC 5) CBeebies 6) BBC News 7) BBC Parliament 8) Dave 9) Drama 10) Yesterday But they aren’t licence fee funded, so don’t help the argument.

  • omotforest david sinfield #pssc (@omotforest) reported from West Molesey, England

    To be honest, when you've removed the dependency of other real time tv, i cant see many people chipping in. Many will be paying just to watch their subscription service or Freeview.

  • vjlorenzato Victoria Lorenzato (@vjlorenzato) reported from Brentford, England

    Catholic Twitter UK- help please! Anyone know of a Mass being broadcast on TV tomorrow ( not via internet) Lovely elderly lady has Freeview but no internet.... TIA!

  • Scare158Steve Scarebear (@Scare158Steve) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @bt_uk Thanks for the help. I spoke to freeview, tried a few things which didn't work but i contacted your TV help and after doing a few basic things somehow it appears to be working now! Very Strange. Tks

  • PhilMcBoobs Philip McHale (@PhilMcBoobs) reported from Barnet, England

    @jonnyt78 Not at all. Was supposed to be awful except from some certain sections of the media. Some of the games were of freeview over here as well, I didn’t have a clue

Freeview Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Woolychops Mrs W. Chops (@Woolychops) reported

    @missy_molly_mol Quite possibly one of the worst freeview channels available.

  • mkalexroy641 Marc Alec (@mkalexroy641) reported

    @NadineDorries Not much of a restriction, it's still available on Freeview which most people have. Close it down completely.

  • JoeClitherow Joe Clitherow (@JoeClitherow) reported

    @Agar5588 @NadineDorries Isn't the Freeview a satellite relay broadcast though? I think RT is uploaded to satellite from Moscow, then downloaded to consumer satellite dishes and relay stations for terrestrial broadcast, e.g. via Freeview So removing from the satellite should also take down Freeview

  • LorryLocket Lorrie (@LorryLocket) reported

    @virginmedia absolute joke, customer for 20+ yrs, informed services have had a price increase from £99 to £147, rang up to change services to reduce costs, best they can do is Freeview for £89?! Person I spoke to unhelpful and uninterested 🤯

  • sifposting Gary (@sifposting) reported

    @NadineDorries Can literally still watch it on Freeview. ******* idiot.

  • MediaBoyUK Media Boy UK (@MediaBoyUK) reported

    LIVE UPDATES: *RT (SD channel) was removed by Sky EPG before 12:45pm on March 2nd. Media Boy HQ will update this post when we get more information on Sky HD. Freeview, Freeview HD and Freesat removing RT from their network.

  • skipaiotter Skipai Otter (@skipaiotter) reported

    @BackPawScratch Freeview is basically a rebroadcast of what is being beamed down from that really and then retransmitting it via airwaves. They're going to lose that feed or whatever Astra decides to put up as placeholder when channel goes off.

  • Toto92733149 Toto (@Toto92733149) reported

    @geof_hughes RT now down on uk freeview

  • htwcentral Historical Television Website (@htwcentral) reported

    @TesTVWhirl RT HD has/had supposedly moved to a much higher channel number hence not gone altogether (yet?) since losing its SD service but that and the Freeview service could disappear at some point.

  • GEORDIEJOHN1982 NUFC1892 (@GEORDIEJOHN1982) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice it is an extremely rare board that I have and these freeview and catch-up apps were already on the board for people to test the apps and develop them for that tv. But the good news is that it is not a problem with freeview play itself. I will let you know what happens today.
