    @GemSiobhan @spectator @afneil You can pick up a 1TB BT freeview+ box on eBay for about £69. No subscriptions. For me it's buying a freeview+ box was a small price to pay to never have to watch adverts.

    @deathbyjulmust I never really cared and they were always on the the channel before freeview was a thing.

    @arqiva One of my TV’s will see some of the multiplexes… The freeview box connected to the same socket wll see some of the same channels, but not all… my other TV will see about 16 channels (none of the main ones)… Feels like the signal power is nothing like what it was before…

    @rahim94 I don't know anyone with Netflix, Amazon or any streaming service. They're either unhappy with freeview or slightly happy with freesat and their catchup services!

  • KeyworkerMan Yorkshire-man (@KeyworkerMan) reported

    @TheNorthernEcho Almost full service restored! 122 Freeview channels stored after retuning my TV! In my car however, the TFM signal is still too weak to use! So its the end of listening to TFM radio in Harrogate!

    @ScrumptiousBlue Ahh OK, I just don't want my account deleted so that's a bit reassuring - thanks. Been asking them for help for 10 days but they won't reply, no idea why. Dr Pimple Popper - isn't that on Freeview?

    I finally figured out how to get sky arts woo. It was pick, I retuned it and then it vanished. You have to do a "network channel scan" if you're on Freeview and it vanishes.

    @FreeviewAdvice Food Network (channel 42) has mysteriously disappeared from my TV. Tried retuning and still won't reappear. Is this a Freeview issue/ do I just have to be patient and wait? Thank you.

  • dougmcfarlane41 Douglas Mcfarlane (@dougmcfarlane41) reported

    Not even surprised with not having a signal after promises by @Freeview. Absolute **** show of a company. Over two months with ZERO signal. Promised 13th "thousands of homes will have their signal" by 6am, yep nothing Now we start to talk compensation @TheNorthernEcho
