    @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

  • uk12345 ken (@uk12345) reported from Romford, England

    @bt_uk I got a problem it's not my fault and it's not BT issue I lost a lot of Freeview channels in my flat I went to no cancel and said you can have a dish because aerials are very bad in your area where you live we've had a lot of people coming to us about the same problem

  • adrianatkins196 adrian atkins (@adrianatkins196) reported from Crayford, England

    Time for the BBC to close down the BBCNews channel as they always seem to put it on BBC1 at same time WHY as BBCNews is available on sky freesat and freeview you dont need it on BBC1

  • 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

  • XtopherCalvert Christmas Calvert (he/him) (@XtopherCalvert) reported from Poplar, England

    Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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.

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

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

  • uk12345 ken (@uk12345) reported from Romford, England

    @nowtvhelp I still got my old with the built-in Freeview TV all that still work and I do I'll come back to you because I transferred my account to BT I Wish I Never now if that box doesn't work I have to buy my NOW TV stick from you?

  • PlexNetflix Martin Phillp 🔶 (@PlexNetflix) reported from Camberwell, England

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

  • AStrangerJ A.j. Stranger #UTAG (@AStrangerJ) reported from Bromley, England

Freeview Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • LaughtonAlan Alan Bromley (@LaughtonAlan) reported

    @freesat_tv The problem is that the new FreeSat boxes are CRAP. We gave up on ours and just watch Freeview

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    The Bilsdale Quarry temporary transmitter failed at just before 1:45pm this afternoon. Freeview is advising affected viewers to not retune. Normal service continues from relay transmitters in the area, which are using a satellite back-up to maintain services.

  • Stuart_1992 Stuaгt (@Stuart_1992) reported

    @petemorristwit I still have the same issue with Freeview. At least with analogue you could receive a poor signal instead of one that breaks up completely. I'm so glad we have a satellite dish now.

  • JennyKayNZ Safety matters 💗💜💙 ⚽⚽⚽💉💉 (@JennyKayNZ) reported

    Doesn't ACT MP realise #ThreeWatersReform will address some of the infrastructure problems he says he's concerned about? Watching @NZParliament TV with Resource Management (Enabling #Housing Supply and Other Matters) Amendment Bill. Channel 31 on Freeview

  • WimpleUk Mr Wimple (@WimpleUk) reported

    With Virgin TV being down for last few days I must say I know people need internet but why anyone pays for TV (Virgin or Sky) is beyond me. More than enough on Freeview (inc plenty of cr@p). If you want sport/films just subscribe to NOW TV and dip in and out as you want.

  • colinm65290743 colin_m (@colinm65290743) reported

    @GBNEWS @GBNEWS Are you aware the lip sync on Freeview has been really bad this evening? I hope it can be fixed.

  • stevend43829773 Stevend43829773 (@stevend43829773) reported

    @UKBabeChannels But why did studio 66 TV decided to close the service on Freeview, I loved watching studio 66 TV especially when Georgie Darby appeared on it and preeti_young also appeared on it too, but Preeti decided to leave S66 TV and when onto BS TV instead, tweet back to me

  • SoyElGuiri El Guiri (@SoyElGuiri) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV @tptvpodcast Hi, I’m wondering if you are showing ‘Tim Driscoll’s Donkey’ again any time soon? I started watching it yesterday but got dragged away to help with a plumbing job … and 3.5 hrs later the Freeview box had given up!! 🙄 Thanks!!!!! 🐴🇮🇪

  • walder_paul Paul walder (@walder_paul) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice @FactsStomp No signal to freeview on the coast of mablethorpe,Lincolnshire. Any idea when this will be rectified please.?

  • stevend43829773 Stevend43829773 (@stevend43829773) reported

    Hi everyone, studio 66 TV is not on Freeview anymore, it's closed down for some reason, I can't watch Georgie Darby on screen anymore, I feel upset
