Freeview Outage in Brentford, Greater London, England

@tinytwink The poor shouldn't have anything they have to work for. Big screen TV - nope. Netflix - what's wrong with Freeview? Mobile phone - can't they walk to the phone box on the corner that was disconnected five years ago. They think if you're poor you should suffer or not be poor.

I will never have normal freeview tv

@MyHydeHome @SCCIAlphatrack Not even sure how that's possible there's no record anyways over the weekend we lost signal for the communal aerial it has become very weak very pixelated can pick up the Freeview HD channels

Channel ‘Pick’ on freeview. Never heard of it before but grateful for it tonight #chelsea

@FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

@jonnyt78 Not at all. Was supposed to be awful except from some certain sections of the media. Some of the games were of freeview over here as well, I didn’t have a clue

@bt_uk Thanks for the help. I spoke to freeview, tried a few things which didn't work but i contacted your TV help and after doing a few basic things somehow it appears to be working now! Very Strange. Tks

@njvns That’s so shit. It’s literally called freeview and yet it’s not free

My broadband has gone down, so stuck watching QVC on Freeview.

@MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.

Catholic Twitter UK- help please! Anyone know of a Mass being broadcast on TV tomorrow ( not via internet) Lovely elderly lady has Freeview but no internet.... TIA!

@virginmedia once again trying to contact virgin media is a no go a proper waste of time contract has run out trying to cancel they have put the money up to £60 a month for basically 2 freeview boxes I have cancelled my direct debit which is due on the 7 april what a scam😡

@PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

@leksi_p Correct. If you do not have Freeview, Sky or Virgin (or any other cable service), you should not need to pay if you never watch it.

To be honest, when you've removed the dependency of other real time tv, i cant see many people chipping in. Many will be paying just to watch their subscription service or Freeview.

@Stephen_Neal Good shout! If we just take the Freeview/Freesat ones, we get to ten, excluding the National ones: 1) BBC One 2) BBC Two 3) BBC Four 4) CBBC 5) CBeebies 6) BBC News 7) BBC Parliament 8) Dave 9) Drama 10) Yesterday But they aren’t licence fee funded, so don’t help the argument.

@stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.

Now I have the truly truly shit @EE freeview package (literally the worst selection of channels on earth but boy is it cheap broadband) I only watch the main 5 channels or SVOD. W, Dave, ITV2 etc are dead to me

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

@DrRacheal @FreeviewTV When I had problems with Freeview, I found their helpline - when I eventually managed to get through to someone - very helpful. Took me step-by-step through the stuff I could check and solved it for me.

@YouViewSupport Non-sub BT DTR-T2100 ok this morning. 2pm no Freeview channels 0% signal. Aerial direct into TV-all channels OK. Tried maintenance-zero happens after Step3 except 'Waking Up' ... After 3\4 cycles of waking up Youview loads. Retuning gives 0 aerial channels. Help?

@jameswharton Watching The Man Who Never Was on the Freeview Sony channel. Interesting episode from WW2.

@FreeviewAdvice Hi I've lost my Freeview HD Channels 101 - 105. Have returned my tv and still no luck it says no data signal.

@virginmedia Why would I report it to you? It's a normal telly with an outside aerial and Freeview. Iffy signal, rural area.

@La_Duff Look up common IP address & Subnet, DNS etc settings for your TV model on the internet & manually change them on the TV's Network settings, I used to have to re-set those settings all the time on my Freeview TV recorder box to get it to connect to my old router,

@R5EHOLE @Brimstones1234 @BBCNews Cool. So you've cancelled kids TV, Forces TV, Freeview now has a 1/3 funding problem. All of the local dialect programming has gone and the content is now created for profit so any events which are in the public interest are pay for view. Doesn't sound like a good model.

@MartinSLewis Would freeview be the best way to go then get internet and phone from a different company help me save I,m disabled and on my own

@Johnnywas25 @darrengrimes_ @CommonsDCMS I don’t watch Freeview. I don’t have a aerial. As for broadband. That was NOT funded by the TV Licence. I’m on Virgin Media’s fibre network, don’t believe they’ve had any public funds. You’re referring to BT, who have, but have no connection to my property.

@Liophora Yeah, I have a TV package for... ...****, I only watch Doctor Who. Not really worth the TV package. May just go Freeview

.@TeamKnowhowUK How can I get in touch with someone about a repair? I've picked up my freeview box after a repair and it's an entirely different box and not the same spec as I handed in for repair. Local store not answering their phone. Can someone help please?
