  • dave_maydew Dave Maydew MW0DCM (@dave_maydew) reported from Tonyrefail, Wales

    @FreeviewAdvice @arqiva More disappointed, but I suppose I've got to accept it, after totally cutting the cord. I do have a tech question though. I'm using the Plex Media Server for Freeview, but the supplied EPG by Gracenote is terrible, is there a XML file of the one you use on the Android app

  • KAK_Tweets Krys Cross! Cha Cha Real Smooth (@KAK_Tweets) reported from Treorchy, Wales

    @flickeringflxme I’ve never seen that one myself but somehow my granddad ended up buying it for himself which was made weirder by the fact he only had freeview so didn’t even have Disney Channel. He loved it though

    @peltonboy @virginmedia Virtually whole of England. Think freeview stations are back on but it is a massive outage. Think they need to throw 10bob in the meter

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital At my place of work, there are 14 in my section, all have sky, some also have freeview but never watch it. 35 staff on day shift, 27 have sky 2 have virgin, but only 3 said they had freeview others were not sure? But it works.

    @FreeviewAdvice It’s not just London. No Freeview signal whatsoever in Tonbridge- TN10

    Oh dear, what has @BBCiPlayer done to itself on the Freeview update? It was bad enough before but now, it’s terrible…….

  • GeraldineRyan Geraldine Ryan (@GeraldineRyan) reported

    When am I going to get my Freeview back @virginmedia? Been down since 5 p.m. yesterday. CB4.

    @S66Cams hi, why has your service on Freeview closed, tweet back to me and send me a follow request

  • Beren_Camlost Mark J. Yule 🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Beren_Camlost) reported

    @cirriustech Ours came back about 6.30PM last night after being off from about 10AM yesterday morning. Wouldn't have been an issue - I might not have known - but I was off and at my mum's. She just has BBC News on all the time. Can't manage the controller to switch to Freeview :(

  • _Jack_Graham_ Time's Carcass💀☭🏺 (@_Jack_Graham_) reported

    @duckbunnyben I don't have cable or Freeview or Sky, or any TV coming in at all. So if I cancel my iPlayer account, I should be able to not pay?

  • BoyCharioteer Stephen Miller (@BoyCharioteer) reported

    @petertsykes My Virgin bill this month is £92.57. I accept that occasionally there can be technological problems and that they need fixing. I can survive the trauma of having to use Freeview briefly today without whingeing about it on social media.

  • AkShane47 shane Jones (@AkShane47) reported

    @virginmedia I have a lot more channels back but it's like watching Freeview with rubbish signal still working on it I guess?
