    Warning, stupid question incoming, does a Freeview tele just simply plug into an old skool aerial?? My mum wants a new TV but doesn’t have cable. I’m assuming so? I’ve had cable since the early 90s so haven’t had to faff on with aerials for 30 odd years !!!

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

    A really bad day for TV viewers - Virgin Media's TV service is still not back to normal following a nationwide outage. - On Freeview, in the London TV region, an issue affecting the D3&4 multiplex has resulted in disruption to some viewers.

    @cassyofLondon @njamurphy It's been happening most of this morning, losing certain freeview channels. Checked with neighbour, same issue. They must be working on the London transmitter. Would be nice if they could pre-warn us it is going to happen, rather than thinking there is something wrong at our end!

    BT, Sky even freeview etc are. As such you need 100% surety of output. Clearly not the case. This should not happen EVER. You and everyone incl OFCOM know this. Terrible reputational impact.

    I got a text to book my covid booster jab today and ignored it. But then I saw two army helicopters and now virgin media and freeview are down. Was this you @RAF_Luton ?

  • DarrenHindle1 Darren Hindle (@DarrenHindle1) reported

    @Seons_Le @virginmedia Well we live in the first world bit hard to have 3rd world problems isn't it you clown we pay a fee we expect it to work if we don't pay a fee we get less than Freeview with a message telling us to pay on screen so why shouldn't we complain

  • cassyofLondon Miss IC MYF (@cassyofLondon) reported

    Any one else's terrestrial TV gone down???? #freeview

  • gnkelly73 Glenn Kelly (@gnkelly73) reported

    @stephensaunt1 @PaulbernalUK @virginmedia You only get compensation for a complete outage. VM have put a couple of Freeview channels on to worm their way out of compensation. Very disingenuous company.
