@FreeviewAdvice I’ve been experiencing a lot of poor quality imaging/interruptions of my freeview in my area, Chingford, London. Also I’ve been able to DM you and I’m not sure why the system is not enabling it. It doesn’t bring up your company when I try

@itvhub Humax FVP-4000T 1TB Freeview Set Top Box Recorder, and having to sign in more or less every time is making us all dislike Martin Freeman

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 😂

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.

@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.
-
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.

@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.

Kevin Killoran (@1FatKev) reported from Hackney, England
@virginmedia really poor show all TV channels drop out just as the snooker semifinal is about to finish #freeview why not.
-
Colin Wiseman (@crazycol) reported from Ealing, England
@stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.
-
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.

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

Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from Wandsworth, England
@LushJEL I'm not much of a TV person as I don't really like it, but I found channel 83 on Freeview TV which is NOW The 80s, so some nights I just have it on in the background, lots of crap but also some good old ones 👍

DarkBeige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

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

DJ Midarezaki, Esq. 🇬🇧🇺🇦🇨🇦🇭🇰🇹🇼 (@DJMidarezaki) reported
@graeme_from_IT @Ofcom Looks like events have overtaken themselves. With the EU banning the channel thus cutting off the Astra satellite uplink, it's down for Sky & Freesat viewers (and YouTube has blocked the channel for EU & UK viewers), and that disconnection appears to have also affected Freeview.
-
Joe Clitherow (@JoeClitherow) reported
@Barry4EU @Agar5588 That's essentially what I said. The feed originates in Moscow and is uploaded to satellite. It is irrelevant that it goes via an intermediary upload The point was that if it is shut down at SES then that also terminates Freeview as well as Sky. Which was the original question
-
Colin Knight (@colin1951uk) reported
@a516digital So this is an Arqiva decision to shut down on Freeview?
-
Micha Histoire 🇱🇨 (@michahistoire) reported
Wow they really took down RT off freeview as well, I thought it was only going to go down on Sky
-
Steven Hemmings - License to till 💙 (@StevieHemmings) reported
@richardxxx4 @Noundela1 Are you getting it via internet or TV service such as Freeview, Sky etc.
-
DJ Midarezaki, Esq. 🇬🇧🇺🇦🇨🇦🇭🇰🇹🇼 (@DJMidarezaki) reported
@andyarmit @goddersbloom It's now gone from Freeview, I expect it was taking its feed from the Astra satellite signal.
-
John Kelley (@ImmuneNaturally) reported
@LordDeeDah Just back home from busy day to find no RT on freeview the channel is still there but the caption on screen reads: "This service is currently not available"
-
Colin (@ceejay_epping) reported
@NM_Rdg @Jim_Cornelius @NadineDorries Yes but Freeview got its programme feed via satellite and that was shut down by the EU at about 4.45pm. This is why Freeview is now showing the ‘not available’ message.
-
David McDuff 🏴.🇪🇺 (@DavidWMcDuff) reported
@adamboultonTABB @Ofcom RT down on Freeview 18:43 UK

pennywisepeter (@pennywisepeter) reported
