Freeview Issues Reports Near Brentford, England

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Brentford and nearby locations:

  • PhilMcBoobs Philip McHale (@PhilMcBoobs) reported from Barnet, England

    @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

  • coulson3000 Hank Moody (@coulson3000) reported from Kensington, England

    I will never have normal freeview tv

  • PlexNetflix Martin Phillp 🔶 (@PlexNetflix) reported from Camberwell, England

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

  • omotforest david sinfield #pssc (@omotforest) reported from West Molesey, England

    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.

  • niklasRen Nik Rahmel (@niklasRen) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @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.

  • 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.

  • JensFallesen Jens Fallesen (@JensFallesen) reported from Hounslow, England

    @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.

  • RegenerateAndy Andy Smith (@RegenerateAndy) reported from Wandsworth, England

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

  • Beige29 DarkBeige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    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

  • fishinthedark1 fishinthedark (@fishinthedark1) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @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.

  • vjlorenzato Victoria Lorenzato (@vjlorenzato) reported from Brentford, England

    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!

  • nessymon Nessy 😷 (@nessymon) reported from London, England

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

  • daguvernor tommy harper (@daguvernor) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @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😡

  • Scare158Steve Scarebear (@Scare158Steve) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @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

  • crazycol Colin Wiseman (@crazycol) reported from Ealing, England

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

  • shoxtl2 Carl (@shoxtl2) reported from Croydon, England

    @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

  • EranE1980 Eran Edry (@EranE1980) reported from Camden Town, England

    @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

  • Dante_Banks Danté Banks (@Dante_Banks) reported from Tottenham, 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.

  • Tommy_M_E_J Tom Jordan (@Tommy_M_E_J) reported from Hammersmith, England

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

  • budgie Lee 'Budgie' Barnett (@budgie) reported from Richmond, England

    @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.

Freeview Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • GavNix Gavin Nixon☘️🌈 🇺🇦✊🏼#FBPPR #FBPE #SlavaUkraini (@GavNix) reported

    @KevinPMeagher @BriW74 It's 'The Eagle Has Landed', on BBC Four, right now, and i-Player for a few weeks' - complete with Donald Sutherland and ludicrously bad 'Irish' accent. No sign of 'Where Eagles' Dare' on any of the Freeview channels for the next while.

  • AlexTheGuiri Alex the Guiri (@AlexTheGuiri) reported

    @Glostermeteor @MattWWoolwich Nope. The BBC was given a significant uplift in the licence fee to implement Freeview in the early 2010s. It was then allowed to keep that uplift to fund the World Service (previously FCO) and ‘free’ licences for over 75s (previously HMT). Typically it has subsequently reneged.

  • Brekkietweets Brekkie (@Brekkietweets) reported

    @Broadcastnow Poor move @ITV @ITVX - the channel still rates relatively healthily and in Freeview homes especially is serving an audience who may not have access to reliable online streaming (not that ITVX is a reliable online streamer!)

  • Madz999 Mandy Jane (@Madz999) reported

    @Robbie__Bell @ITVX Just finished watching The Twelve - painful experience to say the least - ad breaks not close tent, sound issues, long black gaps - tried on Freeview and Sky and it’s just as bad either way! So glad I don’t pay for premium!!!!

  • Dave0932705 Dave (@Dave0932705) reported

    Is anyone else having trouble getting gb news on freeview

  • andyjameshicks Andy Hicks (@andyjameshicks) reported

    @AaronBastani It's the reason I'd never buy licence. (That and Sky taking Sky Sports News off Freeview if I'm honest.)

  • WeHo_1985 Dennis (@WeHo_1985) reported

    @B2theRich It was dreadful. Three out of five is extremely generous. It's the type of terrible b-movie you see on a random Freeview channel at 2pm in the afternoon.

  • ReverieKW Rev (@ReverieKW) reported

    Ok but seriously this is actually **** Switching to streaming only when ~1.5 million houses in the UK still have no internet access and mostly rely on freeview channels for entertainment is awful. What will low economic children have for entertainment now

  • chrisjlatimer 15 minute Chris (@chrisjlatimer) reported

    @Mancman10 You could even have a tax paid somehow to fund the work in upgrading Freeview etc. I just don’t believe and never have the bbc should have a fee attached to it

  • UAhmed Usy (@UAhmed) reported

    @bluemoon_mcfc If BT or Sky get their **** together, creating their own show (of which they already have many) and releasing it immediately on a Freeview platform would be a winning move for them. They could even go the full way and employ linekar on it 😜
