The 80m temporary mast at Bilsdale has blown down. So no @Freeview. We did tell them it gets windy up there.

Can’t believe how truly terrible EETV is. Tuning freeview channels is atrocious. Currently get 43, no BBC, ITV or any basic ones using new aerial. If it does find them they just disappear. Bedroom TV gets all the freeview ones and that’s on an old aerial in the same spot. #EETV

@BuddyGB Will watch that on IPlayer. Technical issues with Bilsdale mast means signal is not strong enough for my Freeview PVR to use its two tuners to record more than one programme at a time. Frustrating.

@dannysavage @yorkshireladtv It's channels that are text services, teletext holidays is one, or use the Internet to show programmes that are not transmitted over the Freeview UHF network.

@dannysavage Not everywhere. Parts of Ripon, Thirsk and Harrogate still have very little or no signal. Freeview and Arqiva are on the case. Temporary relay being planned in next 14 days.

@scottygb Shouldn't be any shunt on Freeview either as 7 was never reallocated.

@PCarmichaelVO @NadineDorries BBC does NOT maintain Freeview network. That is Arqiva. BBC in partnership with other PSB broadcasters own Freeview. They, like other broadcaster pay carriage charges to Arqiva.

Has anyone else noticed how many times you have too retune FreeView? I’ve seen any difference in programs of which they conveniently make a statement off say You may not see any difference. So my question is what are they either uploading or down loading???

@christop_hall @virginmedia Yes. Had Virgin cable TV for a number of years and enjoyed it but costs kept rising. When I reduced services the cost went up! So decided to cancel and just do Freeview. Then the real "leaving problems" began. Nightmare. Never regretted going though and Freeview is fine.

Yeah, FREEVIEW 702 is using old movie labels behind to ease the vision problems of 50-60 yr olds because they believe the **** confusing the prices of music videos did it without knowledge or care of their reason to do it and comparing stupidity with bands instead of themselves.

Hold on...is it me or have they made Non-HD channels terrible on purpose? Is it supposed to upsell everybody to get smart TVs and Freeview?

@SQR45 @FreeviewAdvice Hi Ian, sorry to hear you’re having issues with your TV! If using Freeview, could you please check ch. 27 and 44, as they are on the same service as us? If they are also missing, try giving the Freeview helpline a ring at 03456 505050. I hope you get back to watching TPTV ASAP!

@virginmedia tried to upgrade to one of ur TV packages but hopeless customer service and penalised for being an existing customer. £57 for basically what is freeview TV is a shameful price when it's on offer from £29 to new customers. I'll stick with my @amazonfiretv
