    @Virgin how do I go about leaving Virgin because I'm paying roughly £63.50 a month for a phone that I never use only to ring you up when there's a problem.. most of my viewing is on Freeview now and I have Amazon HD fire stick and Netflix account

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

    @traceyfromrasen @Kavismate @SkySportsRacing @RacingTV My Freeview signal can be hopeless at best even connected to Wi-fi but the HDMI/laptop combo works well when the cat isn’t jumping on it !

    @FreeviewAdvice JVC tv with freeview play is throwing up error FVP-300 on iPlayer, ITV Hub, All 4 and My5. Have power cycled the TV and reset the wifi and still getting the error. Aerial is fine as live freeview channels still working, any idea how to fix this?

  • freggyboy30 chris wadhams 🍻🍻 (@freggyboy30) reported

    @E4Tweets hiya Is there still transmission problems this evening on E4 & E4+1 on freeview & free sat??

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

    Why S4C has been affected on Freeview: S4C playout is at the new BBC Cymru Wales HQ in Cardiff. But the feed gets sent to London to be combined with Channel 4's Freeview service. The finished multiplex is sent to Welsh transmitters. The fire in London messed things up.

  • KarlSettle Karl Settle (@KarlSettle) reported

    @C4F1 what's that horrible loud beeping noise on freeview HD, not on SD C4?

  • sbrad_shaw Sean (@sbrad_shaw) reported

    @MonkeySaid @lgtechventures LG DM'd me to say it's due to a contract issue between them and FREEVIEW, so basically - tough luck ,not ideal !

  • alexwild891 Alex Wild (@alexwild891) reported

    Freeview 4HD is fine but it’s already half way through ‘All the Money’ so wanted to watch on 4+1 in SD Oh wait we got adverts on 4+1 Ah it’s gone again, ah no wait got the announcer but black screen… Seems they’re aware of the issues

  • eddsirr Edd Sirr (@eddsirr) reported

    @JBlairSco @Gwyn_Dr @S4C It’s not a connection error or a broadcaster error- it’s an error by the company that broadcasts the Freeview multiplex. There is literally nothing S4C could have done themselves to fix it.

  • Gwyn_Dr Gwyn Williams (@Gwyn_Dr) reported

    @JBlairSco @eddsirr @S4C But it's not an "on-air" failure. It is an issue at a third party site when the multiplex signals for Freeview are encoded.

    @BBC The reason for the BBC losing the streaming business is coz you choose crap programs for us to watch! That goes for all General TV programs including what we’re to watch on Freeview we’re fed up with watching repeats. That’s Why people don’t want to pay for TV licenses!
