  • JEFFREY03296741 JEFFREY PHILLIPS (@JEFFREY03296741) reported from Brentford, England

    @TalkingPicsTV Hello. Watching at about 4.35 pm on Monday 24th the Sky TV picture was completely lost from your channel and went off air. All other channels were fine. Also okay on Freeview but I missed the end of the film. At 4.48 pm it is still without a, signal. What's up?

  • 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?

  • flowergirl_lon Sam (Flower Girl) Jennings (@flowergirl_lon) reported from Croydon, England

    @GeorgeBollands @gemoore83 @BBCSport Ok… I have Now tv so don’t think I can get that but I’ll have a look. My regular freeview is crap as I don’t have an aerial, only have internet streamed TV.

    @GMB I intend to cancel my Gas (£120 pm) & Gas Service contract (£50 pm) and go all electric .. the Sky contract is going (going freeview) .. already cancelled home insurance, health insurance, and burial insurance

  • markdea61022336 mark dean (@markdea61022336) reported

    @TalkTalk my parents have been sent a new talktalk Freeview box. It’s connected up but when watching Freeview they have sound and no picture. Streaming services work ok. Help please?

  • Mistertonmick75 Michael Kent 🦮 Eddie 🐕 Kaylee 🌈 🐕 Toby 🌈 (@Mistertonmick75) reported

    @rreczulski @rasiron @MalarkeyIron I think it is daft not having a freeview aerial for back up incase Sky is down rhrough weather or your Sky main box isn't working and you are waiting for a day or 2 for a repairman or replacement, at least it is better than watching a blank screen.

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @MaggiKaye @FreeviewTV Hi Maggi, I am so very sorry to learn you are experiencing issues with our app. Can you please drop us a DM along with your full postcode and house name/number and can you please confirm if it is the Freeview Play app on your TV or the Freeview mobile app? Thank you,

  • meraulton Meraulton (@meraulton) reported

    Build up your own library of DVDs and CDs because tonight's tv is just awful. I expect terrestrial tv to be bad every night but Freeview is now following suit. Just put your own stuff on. A bit of Genesis then Apocalypse Now.

  • just_call_me_DK Dreamkiller (@just_call_me_DK) reported

    @LemonKid1978 @SkyArts There is for me. I don't have a Sky (or any other) package, and we live in an area where the Freeview is limited to about 20 channels, so no chance of me seeing it at the moment. Hopefully, it'll appear elsewhere sometime soon. Seems to have gone down well. Was it good mate?

  • mrwilmore18 Neal 🌎 (@mrwilmore18) reported

    @rreczulski @rasiron Freeview channel 721 is BBC Leicester where I live so fully rely on BBC Sport commentary. I suspect many others who live away from the region have the same issue.

  • ChrisTheDJ Chris Merriman 🇺🇦 (@ChrisTheDJ) reported

    Actually that's not strictly true. Freeview will be offering internet streams of channels as back up in the future, but no sign of when, so that doesn't help you today.

  • Mitch_John123 The Marma (@Mitch_John123) reported

    @DIOWARUUDO @oscar692_ No you just can't watch freeview which is dog **** anyways you can still have streaming services that basically make up for it.
