    @valis64 @AndyWoodturner My mum's got a Sky Q box and has no clue how to use it apart from turning it on and flicking through the channels (not using the guide) 🙄 Problem is, she likes a lot of the Sky channels, otherwise I'd have had her back on Freeview by now.

    @Flintaxe @BBCiPlayer Hello again. I seem to have fixed this issue. I didn't have a TV aerial connected to the back of the TV itself (I use a BT box.) Once I connected to the back of the TV, iplayer worked as it operates via the Freeview Play platform. Hope this works for you.

    @sianharries_ I don't know, Freeview's standard channels all look bloody awful compared to HD.

    @TalkingPicsTV hi, We have a brand new TV, Internet and freeview but we get as far as pressing OK to watch something then a blank screen, with the red button service. Are we not doing something obvious maybe?

    @LGUKCare Hi, I've an LG smart TV. I've been trying to use channelbox on freeview 271. My hbbtv setting is on, but it still doesn't work. Google seems to suggest this is an LG problem. Can you advise please?

  • hopeless_punter Dan Chivers (@hopeless_punter) reported

    @NNweather Please RT. Anyone in the NN2/NN3 area experiencing issues with their Freeview HD reception this weekend? Tried all the usual fixes but still dropping out every so often. I know O2 were doing some works in the area last week, so not sure if it's related to that.

  • oldwarrenpoint Brian McCalmont (@oldwarrenpoint) reported

    @wilsondan @VodafoneUK @GeorgeMonbiot To be honest its actually the best network here (but not by much) Next choice from locals I have previously had conversations with is 3. We are in a "geographically challenged" area. We still only get basic Freeview telly for example - but we do get RTE so I dunno....

    So poor? I khan only dream freeview 😳

  • Northern_Guru Steven A. Wall (@Northern_Guru) reported

    @virginmedia But it has still been out for 13 days so far. Also having to use Virgin Mobile data to check for updates on what amounts to a very lacklustre service. A neighbour has had to spend over £200 to get a freeview aerial fitted just so that his wife doesn’t miss her soaps.

    @TalkingPicsTV A Sky engineer is coming out to fix it , with a new box , best from , Tim. , so I will watch in the meantime on Freeview.
