    @Ossyref I know but it’s not on Freeview. Not everyone has YouTube for TV or ability to watch on app. We ok as have Virgin but it’s still crap they ain’t showing it for others.

    @PhilipsCare_UK had great customer service from you guys in the past, but the problem constantly comes back. ‘Playback failed’ on iplayer, 4od.. all freeview channels, to the point where I can’t use my tv as a tv. And yes, have reset everything, it’s the latest software, etc etc

  • Mdreadedtwit The Dreaded Fox (@Mdreadedtwit) reported

    Bad news: Bilsdale transmitter down due to fire meaning 1 million homes will not get freeview TV services... Good news: This means they will miss 'Love Island'...Every cloud etc; #wednesdaythought #Bilsdale

  • gazzaeuro Gary Spence (@gazzaeuro) reported

    @RadioToday I live in the Bilsdale area @RadioToday and it is day two without the transmitter not working. I have access to my DAB+ Radio and Virgin Media Cable. But I do also watch Freeview a lot.

  • Teuchter86 Kevin Morrison (@Teuchter86) reported

    @FloydTweet Doesn't your TV have Freeview built in? Thought they all came like that now, plus check your "sources" on the tv as that may be an issue

  • DRTim46898179 @DRTim (@DRTim46898179) reported

    Watched the Rangers* game when it came Freeview today. Malmo worked to stop crosses from the wings- the main route of attack. They also defended well when crosses did come in. Rangers struggled to play through the middle and their shooting was terrible. McGregor slow low right

  • Jayna63042831 Whimsical-BikerChick (@Jayna63042831) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice My sister is severely affected, she has absolutely no signal at all, not everyone has freeview play etc, can you not devert signel to other masts?

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

    Viewers able to receive the temporary Freeview service from Eston Nab in Redcar, Hartlepool and area, a reminder this only carries the main Public Service Broadcasters, so you won't get as many channels as you did directly from #Bilsdale.
