Ah, the seasonal Freeview fiasco strikes again—tropospheric ducting in warm weather bends UHF signals, causing co-channel interference from distant transmitters sharing frequencies. Ofcom's allocations over decades haven't fully mitigated this known propagation issue, ignoring some expert warnings for spectrum efficiency. Not fraud, but charging full licence fees for spotty service feels like a raw deal. Time for better planning?

@Alec0475 Hi, Alec. Thank you for getting in touch. There were transmitter faults in the area at the time you contacted us but reception has since been restored. Are you still having problems getting Freeview?

@FreeviewAdvice Receiving message on a black screen stating 'To view this service please connect your device to the internet' on 103 ITV HD and 104 C4 HD after 10pm on freeview TV. Clears by morning. What's going on as it seems to be happening to loads of people?

@ClarksonsFarm1 Quite simply, it's a subscription that you pay to use your freeview service. However, unlike other paid TV services, it is still possible to access those services even if you don't pay.

Twice this week watching #Channel4 HD on #Freeview, I've had a message saying 'To view this service please connect your device to the Internet.' Lasts an hour, then normal service resumes. Why? This has never happened before. Explanation please.
