    Anyone else having issues with Freeview etc today? ST6 area ?

  • Crewedaddy Richard Seamon (@Crewedaddy) reported from Crewe, England

    @james_blue_cat Can't afford any streaming service or the hardware upgrade to accommodate one. Freeview and iPlayer is enough. Didn't switch telly on Xmas day and Bob and Paul going fishing was my highlight.

  • DavidSwindells1 David Swindells (@DavidSwindells1) reported from Macclesfield, England

    Hope we don't get this warm weather very often.#freeview doesn't work because of the high atmospheric pressure apparently. How am I going to watch #loveisland

  • minxsterev helen kirk (@minxsterev) reported from Crewe, England

    @curryspcworld Just been into your Crewe store looking for a freeview box. 5 staff members fiddling with displays, me the only customer. Not one member of staff came to see if I needed help. Going elsewhere as you obvs don't need my custom.

    Imagine how much of a Christmas miracle it would be if BBC3 came back to freeview number 7. I can picture it now, Gavin & Stacey returns and BBC3 makes a comeback. 25/12/19 would go down in history.

    @catstockholm @GBNEWS That’s ok yea i managed to see if the Tv Freeview was working and their Tv version in UK is working. prob they had an internet broadcast issue.

  • BurleyNeo And Beans (@BurleyNeo) reported

    @PeterBoneUK @DefundBBC Would like a choice to pay for it or not as the BBC is not a critical service. Currently I pay it to watch other Freeview channels the BBC does not interest me but I have no choice. I have to pay them to watch channels that have adverts. Does not feel right at all.

  • JillCollier16 Jill Collier 🟥 (@JillCollier16) reported

    @tinternetqueen @VirginMediaCorp I have a mixture. Plusnet for broadband and landline, recently moved to Tesco for very basic mobile. Both great customer service. Only use freeview telly, though.

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    Fog! Temperature Inversion! Weird things may happen to your Freeview signal tonight and tomorrow. Don't retune! (Unless your hobby is DXing and you want to see if you can get some out-of-region/foreign services.)

  • bexbrfc Becky (@bexbrfc) reported

    @grumpybrains BBC lancs on Freeview never has our match on and not sure I have an actual radio anymore so usually just watch scores coming in on BBC. Need a big performance after last week 👊

  • carmadchris Chris (@carmadchris) reported from Hazlemere, England

    @LlamaBusiness @skytv Bailed on them last year, never looked back Unless you live in the sports channels, look at what you get for your £, then see what would be free on freeview/freesat & what is on other services like Netflix

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital Its excellent lift conditions out side tonight, bad news for freeview users, but great news for long distance reception, my talconeston reception is bang on 100% thats over 68 miles away.

  • ETusty Emma T (@ETusty) reported

    Not just freeview issues, but our internet is also flickering.

  • bookwormsarah Bookwormsarah 💙 (@bookwormsarah) reported

    Is anyone else having problems with the BBC on freeview? Other freeview channels seem to be ok, and CBeebies has re-emerged a couple of times, but we’ve had ‘weak or no signal’ for three or four days. No errors listed on the transmitter page…

  • PoppyDog08 Al (@PoppyDog08) reported

    @a516digital @TalkingPicsTV announced they were moving on Freeview a few weeks back. The moral here is never put your channel numbers on your merchandise. My beanie hat will be out of date 😢
