    Virgin tv and broadband gone down yet again. Resorting to Freeview right now. The picture quality is actually much better than Virgin...AND no glitches and constant picture breakup!!

  • 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...😳

  • 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.

    @DavidBoink @russeaside1053 Hi David, Sometimes mobile broadband services can interfere with TV signals in some areas. A company called DMSL has been established by mobile phone operators to help resolve these reception issues for Freeview users. If you want any further information, you can send us a DM.

  • HeidiRoseC Heidirose Calandra (@HeidiRoseC) reported

    @MoneySavingExp Can't get a good freeview signal so got Freesat. Very happy with it. Seriously underrated

  • PrehistoricCat Tracy 💙 (@PrehistoricCat) reported

    @ShanghaiHannah @Channel4 @BritishBakeOff Would be nice to be able to watch it full stop. Channel 4 and Film 4 not working on Freeview.

  • dougmcfarlane41 Douglas Mcfarlane (@dougmcfarlane41) reported

    Oh **** me @bbc5live all over whatsapp outage etc and the 'horrror'. Excuse me we haven't had even FREEVIEW since August 10th and due to come back 15th October...not a whisper

  • JAM_WAH Jamie Roberts (@JAM_WAH) reported

    @jamiesmart That's maybe more unsettling than a ghost! About 10 years ago I would wake up every night at exactly 3am without fail. 3am being the devil's hour or something. Freaked me out after a month or so. Turned out the Freeview box updated and made a noise.

  • CaptainBurgers Big captain (@CaptainBurgers) reported

    Really disappointed in Freeview just spent 45 minutes tuning the box to find that it’s broken! When I click on the BBC section I’m greeted with old people baking not young strapping black men with large dongs like on my iPad #BBC

  • carew_deborah Deborah Carew (@carew_deborah) reported

    Hmm, mobile network, WiFi and freeview all playing up today!! Not sure if this tweet will post. 👀 Anybody else experiencing tech issues?

  • HiFranc Francisco (@HiFranc) reported

    @KellyQuilt Do you use Freeview/Freesat or a paid for service? If the latter, may be time to switch to the former?

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

    /2 uniquely in the UK, the East Mids transmitter at Waltham is being fed with the (broken) online streams. This first occured last week. All other Freeview transmitters have different source feeds that are not affected.

  • ZXGuesser Guesser (@ZXGuesser) reported

    @DrRhys @grim_fandango @russty_russ I don't think I ever saw the Teletext Ltd MHEG5 service as starting it hard crashed our freeview box.
