  • thelobsterboy Paul Smith (@thelobsterboy) reported from Manchester, England

    I love these Freeview updates. Each time I rescan the television I seem to lose additional channels! I'm down to QVC, Free Sports and That's 70s and it's only 3pm!

  • collegeflunky Sean Vickers (@collegeflunky) reported from Radcliffe, England

    @FreeviewAdvice any advice?Unable to watch terrestrial tv properly since Winter Hill update in August. Retuned Humax box and Hisense tv numerous times but still an issue #winterhill #freeview #

  • PaulW_1 Paul Williams✈️ (@PaulW_1) reported from Sale, England

    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

  • MikeBates04 Mike 🇬🇧 #Britishindependent (@MikeBates04) reported from Manchester, England

  • MaryMares81 mary whitfield (@MaryMares81) reported from Salford, England

    @FreeviewAdvice we have lost the majority of freeview channels having retuned a few times. Used the availability checker which says channels should be available, can you help? Thanks

  • baileys36 Jenny Lewis (@baileys36) reported

  • ahappystitcher Sally-Jane 💙💛🌻 (@ahappystitcher) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice @aj2squared @MattCainWriter We have 4 tvs. 2 running off 2 feeds and 2 running off a different feed. All feeds are from the same aerial and the 3 tvs with working Internal freeview boxes are getting zero signal, so think the problem is at or below our aerial.

  • techprocess1 🇬🇧 (@techprocess1) reported

    @extravelservice @SkyUK It’s a sky streaming only service Locked into Sky better off getting a smartTV . Look at BT TV £6 a month for Sky entertainment Netflix and freeview. And record 600 hours all without an aerial or dish.

  • Grinch_Fingers Steph (@Grinch_Fingers) reported

    We didn't know our Samsung TV doesn't have freeview until we moved. Our Virgin can be switched over tomorrow THANK GOD. Its been a true 1st World problem.

  • brianwinteruk Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported from Hipswell, England

    @danmooreradio @a516digital On Freeview bandwidth is an issue. But also still a fair number of SD only boxes out there.
