    @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

  • Dante_Banks Danté Banks (@Dante_Banks) reported from Tottenham, England

    @tinytwink The poor shouldn't have anything they have to work for. Big screen TV - nope. Netflix - what's wrong with Freeview? Mobile phone - can't they walk to the phone box on the corner that was disconnected five years ago. They think if you're poor you should suffer or not be poor.

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • 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

  • EranE1980 Eran Edry (@EranE1980) reported from Camden Town, England

    @FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

  • MartinC93414706 Martin (@MartinC93414706) reported from Lambeth, England

    @channel5_tv is the worst for catch up tv via your app or freeview. Just can’t find programmes sometimes. Trying to find Sally Lindsays posh sleepover. C4, itv and BBC never ever have a problem with. I give up with C5

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

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

  • 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?

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

    My broadband has gone down, so stuck watching QVC on Freeview.

  • 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

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

    On the Freeview “REALLY” channel at 9pm, “Who Killed Jeffery Epstein?”. I’ve never seen it before, but I bet the answers not Jeffrey Epstein.

Freeview Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • GreatStrides65 David Turner (@GreatStrides65) reported

    @GabrielVanca @ZachElsbury @PeterTatchell Freeview. Netflix. iPlayer. Plenty of alternatives available to those who don't want someone's way of life shoved down their throats

  • a516digital Mike (@a516digital) reported

    BBC Red Button 1 now has the lying-in-state live stream running until 6:30am on Monday. Satellite has no-commentry coverage from 0800-1700, then suspension. Freeview currently still has suspension. Overall, BBC very slow to confirm arrangements away from BBC One and BBC Two.

  • Flic_Kitty Kitty (@Flic_Kitty) reported

    @PeterTatchell Ah yes, the BBC have blocked all other TV channels, all access to freeview, freesat, Sky, Now TV, Netflix, Prime, Brit Box and every other TV and film service in the country. They've also burned all books, DVDs, radios, and blocked Spotify, Deezer etc. Pillock.

  • BenaudsGhost Benauds Ghost (@BenaudsGhost) reported

    @soxgnasher Talking Pictures TV have a film on their Encore on demand service on Freeview called The Turners of Prospect Road (1947) about a Greyhound. Great scenes from inside the stadium.

  • adam_m_farrell Adam Farrell (@adam_m_farrell) reported

    @scottygb One Freeview channel would have done to be honest....never been so glad to be abroad to avoid it all.

  • FactsStomp Phil's Train and Retro Life (@FactsStomp) reported

    @a516digital Brilliant, thank you. For some reason the BBC seem slow or reluctant to update their listings which for programmes not broadcast makes my Freeview box give a "recording failed due to power loss" error.

  • PiaKristmansson Pia Kristmansson (@PiaKristmansson) reported

    @FreeviewTV My freeview is down… 🥹

  • JasonWTimmins Jason Timmins (@JasonWTimmins) reported

    @petercrouch Are you talking about Freeview, Freesat, Sky or Virgin Media? Actually, forget it, I'm not that interested in your first-world, millionaire 'problems.'

  • TomDavi8165081 Tom1871 (@TomDavi8165081) reported

    @RobertsonG Thank you. I am aware of that & would put it down to that, but it started happening on the odd occasion even months ago. Strange 🤔. I retuned my freeview box to see how that goes & chose South East instead of South / Southampton, just in case.
