  • uk12345 ken (@uk12345) reported from Romford, England

    @bt_uk I got a problem it's not my fault and it's not BT issue I lost a lot of Freeview channels in my flat I went to no cancel and said you can have a dish because aerials are very bad in your area where you live we've had a lot of people coming to us about the same problem

  • themib Martin Bentley, AKA Martin Bentley (@themib) reported from London, England

    Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

  • RobKerr32 Rob Kerr - I'm NOT a Robot (@RobKerr32) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @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 !

  • uptownclub Franky uptownclub (@uptownclub) reported from Harlow, England

    @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 😂

Freeview Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • sedition3 Adrianne Sebastian-Scott (@sedition3) reported

    @LemSip27 ITV is down. Freeview has a written announcement "Service is not running" for over an hour.

  • happyborg happyborg: decentralising & democratising (@happyborg) reported

    @RadioTimes Thx. Lenovo Android tablet with latest Firefox. Clicking Freeview (or other things) causes the display to flicker repeatedly very fast, and I can see the text briefly "server error" between the screens it is displaying. I'm now using the freeview website tv guide without problem

  • OCDTrudy Grumpy Old Girl! #WearADamnMask 😷🇪🇺 (@OCDTrudy) reported

    @LemSip27 No some idiot left an item at the station so it had to be checked and it wasn't suspicious. Freeview has been having problems for months with various transmitters or relays going down throughout the UK

  • FreeviewTV Freeview (@FreeviewTV) reported

    @Gucci_Hughes Hi Brad, Unfortunately, Freeview is only viewable via a aerial at this time, you can use the catch up service online. Thanks George

  • damo_war damo_war (@damo_war) reported

    @NiceEtoile @RadioTimes It's truly dreadful now. Unusable. The channels don't align with the listings, no way to click out of expanded details, 'internal error' if you select freesat/freeview listings etc. There never was a problem with load times, or 'accidental hover'.

  • anotheriain another iain (@anotheriain) reported

    No, Freeview box, I *never* want to record this programme in HD instead of SD, why do you keep asking me?

  • mwoodwriting Matthew Paul Wood (@mwoodwriting) reported from Redcar, England

    There's an important point to be made about internet freedom and search algorithms but I can't be bothered all that so... The internet is like Freeview now. "Do you want this crap thing you didn't ask for on CNN 1, CNN 2, or CNN extra?" 😾

  • t_witterer t_witterer (@t_witterer) reported

    @MartinSLewis @bbc5live Cancelled mobile contract and Disney+ so far, will just use Wifi and have freeview channels. Have nothing else to cancel. Considering getting train to work & hoping no ticket inspectors as can no longer fuel, this is serious last straw now.

  • LadyLucia05 Lucia (@LadyLucia05) reported

    @MartinSLewis @bbc5live Cut back on everything back to basics, DD are mortgage, CT, water, TV Licence, Internet & phones all on sim only, G&E are pre pay we dont have subs only freeview, we have no debts at all, bought throws to keep warm an will buy HW bottles turn heating & water down few degrees too

  • happyborg happyborg: decentralising & democratising (@happyborg) reported

    What have you done @RadioTimes? The online TV Guide I've used for years has been broken in multiple ways. Choosing things like 'Freeview' breaks it. Lazy loading as I scroll never completes, channel numbers aren't shown. It's hard to scroll vertically without it scrolling time😵
