Joe (@Joe__Monty) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, EnglandLooks like freeview is down across Teesside. No TV or radio signal..
-
Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported from Hipswell, EnglandThe 80m temporary mast at Bilsdale has blown down. So no @Freeview. We did tell them it gets windy up there.
-
Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported from Hipswell, England@danmooreradio @a516digital On Freeview bandwidth is an issue. But also still a fair number of SD only boxes out there.
-
Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported from Hipswell, England@Stuart_Linnell @BBCOne @bbcmtd Only on Sky and Freesat. Freeview to follow, by end of April, but not down to each region. Only same as ITV. The HD multiplex cannot be fully regionslised
-
Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported from Hipswell, England@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.
-
Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported from Hipswell, England@scottygb Shouldn't be any shunt on Freeview either as 7 was never reallocated.
-
Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported from Hipswell, England@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.

Jim Gardner 🇺🇦 (@Jim_Gardner_) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England@mrjamesob If the Gammon aren't careful, the only British values we'll have left will be brown sauce, calling Freeview "Normal Telly" and wrought iron silhouettes of a WW2 solider we're told to never forget, even though he died defending Europe, The Rule of Law, and Refugees.
-
Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported from Hipswell, England@NYorksPolice This is obviously a hang over from the Bilsdale transmitter problems. As far as I am aware, Harrogate has good Freeview coverage now. If not from Bilsdale, then from one of two temporary relays set up by Arqiva.

Darren Clark (@DarrenClark1971) reported from Stainton and Thornton, EnglandCan’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
-
Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported from Hipswell, England@Jan_208 It is a minor problem that occurs once in a while when Freeview change the channel map too frequently. Part of it is broadcasters who fail to update their channel tags.
-
Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported from Hipswell, England@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.
-
Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported from Hipswell, England@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.

mgtyorks (@mgtyorks) reported@FreeviewAdvice transmitter fault with Weaverthorpe transmitter since power cut yesterday. No BBC channels except HD, and no BBC radio channels on freeview. 2 TVs, signal checked, retuned, other channels unaffected, others report same issue
-
Pete (@1985Pete) reported@JayBryan_DJ @BBCStokeSport Freeview for sure, be too late to scramble a crew down there for now. Be 2 hours of Gardening tips instead no doubt
-
Mart Smith (@Mart_Smith) reported@InfiniRunner @thesimpsonRFC Football commentary is never online, as it says, due to licensing restrictions. Only radio or freeview for free, or paid something's through the clubs follow/in house media.
-
TVmusic News UK (@TVmusicNews) reportedAs reported by some other viewers, That's Oldies on Freeview (75) has already been off since Wednesday 18th February. Schedules are still being displayed, but no signal.
-
Marc (@marcrock100) reported@JennyAThatcher Never watched it, rarely watch anything at the 5 terrestrial UK channels and Freeview.
-
Marina (and Buster🐾)🐈🚣♀️ (@mpmeg) reported@MajQapla The Encore app is a catch up only service, and doesn't show live TV. I expect Abigail's Party will be added after broadcast. I watch TPTV via Virgin media channel 445, I know it is on Freeview (81?)
-
Jack Last (@Ajax62859643753) reported@GBPolitcs Why is the BBC on Freeview?, it’s a free to watch service hence the name. But because the BBC use it they expect people to pay for a free service.
-
Cristian Tiplea (@CristianTiplea1) reported@freesatadvice I don’t get any epg . I’m using TV’s satellite tunner directly, it’s connected to the internet but the freeview play never updates the epg. Any advice?
-
casey (@tinyrowlet) reported@DamonJMorris yes! i'm with freeview and i had to put it on the channel 4 app on my tv via wifi and it's working fine there. must be a satellite problem on their end
