    @Ossyref I know but it’s not on Freeview. Not everyone has YouTube for TV or ability to watch on app. We ok as have Virgin but it’s still crap they ain’t showing it for others.

  • johnworthy27 john worthington (@johnworthy27) reported from Preston, England

    @FreeviewAdvice any advice?Unable to watch terrestrial tv properly since Winter Hill update in August. Retuned Humax box and Hisense tv numerous times but still an issue #winterhill #freeview #

  • annmurphy_wigan Ann Murphy (@annmurphy_wigan) reported from Wigan, England

    @FreeviewAdvice Well, after waiting 2 weeks for a Freeview engineer we are told we need a new aerial. Also, they can’t help us because we have Sky! So they change Winter Hill and now we have to pay. Why didn’t they say this 3 weeks ago...😳

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • ceejay_epping Colin (@ceejay_epping) reported

    @NM_Rdg @Jim_Cornelius @NadineDorries Yes but Freeview got its programme feed via satellite and that was shut down by the EU at about 4.45pm. This is why Freeview is now showing the ‘not available’ message.

  • StevieHemmings Steven Hemmings - License to till 💙 (@StevieHemmings) reported

    @richardxxx4 @Noundela1 Are you getting it via internet or TV service such as Freeview, Sky etc.

  • Toytowner Ⓜ️©Noddy 🇺🇦 😷🚔🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Toytowner) reported from Westhill, Scotland

    @unpaidcarer1 Website down. Channel is off Sky and Freeview.

  • lanerobertlane Robert Falla-Louvét 🔭🪐🚀 (@lanerobertlane) reported

    @scottygb @FloraCarmichael @alistaircoleman Freeview feed seemed to go to Aqiva via the Hotbird satellite, since RT on freeview went down when that feed was cut, as opposed to when the Astra 2 satellite (carrying sky/freesat’s seed) dropped it.

  • colin1951uk Colin Knight (@colin1951uk) reported

    @a516digital So this is an Arqiva decision to shut down on Freeview?

  • LaBloggeuse Dr Devra Kay (@LaBloggeuse) reported

    @RolandCPowell @droyls It was going strong on UK Freeview until middle of this pm. Then a one-line message appeared: This service is currently not available. They had been criticizing the French ban just before that. Thanks for the info.

  • clayton_mick mick clayton (@clayton_mick) reported

    @georgegalloway You are not wrong. Just checked. Service not available on my Freeview. Britain now a police state. Fascism has arrived what the Luftwaffe failed to do. RIP Britain as a democracy.

  • robert07059131 Leo (NEW) (@robert07059131) reported

    @MaizyDaizyZzzz Damn, off on freeview now 17.00 hrs

  • mpk Mike (@mpk) reported

    @veronica_landon @lexheath @PippaCrerar Ofcom is doing everything by the book. Lots of investigations running into various RT-related issues but they (rightly) don’t have the power to simply yank channels off air. Whether RT can still pay their bills for carriage on Freeview et al with the sanctions is another thing..

  • michahistoire Micha Histoire 🇱🇨 (@michahistoire) reported

    Wow they really took down RT off freeview as well, I thought it was only going to go down on Sky
