  • AndyMcK1982 Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @jaxlfc_jj @YaTerrynorris70 It’s not restricted to the BBC. If you watch or record live TV on any channel - either through your TV or through a website - then you need a TV licence. This applies whether you receive Freesat, Freeview or a pay-TV service in your home, & whether or not you watch BBC channels.

    @terry562506 @AmazonHelp How? I've had this problem since I bought the new TV 2 weeks ago. The smaller ombre in the bedding works fine. The new one gets PLR 5027error and a couple others when I try to play Freeview movie or TV show.

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @FramptonRoz @FreeviewTV Hi Roz, Deepest apologies for the delay in responding. I am so very sorry you are experiencing issue with your Freeview reception. Can you please DM Freeview Advice along with your full postcode and house name/number and we will look in to this for you. Thank you, Melissa

  • UKTVPlayHelp UKTV Play Help (@UKTVPlayHelp) reported

    Thank you for your patience whilst we investigate the recent issue seen on some older freeview devices. We are continuing to work on resolving it. We will update when it will be fixed. In the meantime you can still access UKTV Play via other TVs, desktop and mobile.

  • djones1509 Derek Jones (@djones1509) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Can I ask if you are experiencing any technical issues, as no signal is being received on all Freeview channels? Many thanks!

  • AJdeVries2 AJ de Vries (@AJdeVries2) reported

    I noticed whenever they show foreigners speaking Mandarin on Freeview TV28 it's always foreign men, some of whom are even married to Chinese women😒. But they never seem to show foreign women speaking the language, let alone with Chinese boyfriends/husbands.

  • Kster91 Karl 🐢 (@Kster91) reported

    back to back episodes of Pokémon are on Pop TV (no, I've never heard of it either) Freeview 206 🤓

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @AdamOnTop97 Hi, Adam. Are you having this issue only on UKTV Play or are you having similar issues on all Freeview Play players? Fraser

  • jordanladley Jordan Ladley (@jordanladley) reported

    @virginmedia As many people on here that had the same problem I don’t think it’s an issue where service checker says there is a problem and only happened for one event, other times it seems to be ok just yesterday was an issue and had to turn on freeview instead

  • BerniKennedy Bernardine Kennedy (Maxwell) (@BerniKennedy) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Help Again. When Sky Q was installed they somehow disconnected our Freeview on 2 TVs . As the scaffolding is going to be there for three weeks we really need to do something. Suggestions? (apart from SkyGlass... too expensive right now)

  • DaveLGilmore David Gilmore (@DaveLGilmore) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV Please make an Xbox app for encore. It would compete me (terrible freeview reception means I can’t get the broadcast channel)
