Freeview Issues Reports Near Aberdare, Wales

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Aberdare and nearby locations:

  • KAK_Tweets Krys Cross! Cha Cha Real Smooth (@KAK_Tweets) reported from Treorchy, Wales

    @flickeringflxme I’ve never seen that one myself but somehow my granddad ended up buying it for himself which was made weirder by the fact he only had freeview so didn’t even have Disney Channel. He loved it though

  • MichaelLeeLewi4 Michael Lee Lewis (@MichaelLeeLewi4) reported from Aberdare, Wales

    @kieranjameen Kieran cancel it, my sister did with hers and hasn't missed it, you can buy internet freeview boxes now and you can download all the apps onto them, no monthly payments then, just for what you choose to, much cheaper

  • dave_maydew Dave Maydew MW0DCM (@dave_maydew) reported from Tonyrefail, Wales

    @FreeviewAdvice @arqiva More disappointed, but I suppose I've got to accept it, after totally cutting the cord. I do have a tech question though. I'm using the Plex Media Server for Freeview, but the supplied EPG by Gracenote is terrible, is there a XML file of the one you use on the Android app

  • IanCleverly06 Ian Cleverly (@IanCleverly06) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    Just an FYI @DMAX_UK but you've just showed Series 3 Ep10 of #Archer, when the Freeview EPG (and your website) has you showing the correct in order Ep 9. It has the same down for the Sat midnight showing (ie Ep 10 is listed in you'll show Ep 9)

    2/ the EE TV service. What are other formerly happy EE TV clients feeling about and doing about this? Is there any way we can continue to use the EE TV box for receipt, recording Freeview programmes etc ?

  • summers_allan Allan Kempson (@summers_allan) reported from Romford, England

    @talkSPORT @Sjopinion10 That's a bad idea. Sky have rights to other sports too, so a netflix football service would be yet another thing to pay for if you like multiple sports. More football needs to be on freeview channels like BBC and ITV.

  • Ooh_Matron Richard Pearmain (@Ooh_Matron) reported

    The Tom Cruise War Of The Worlds is on TV tonight, the blurb on the Freeview listings says it "deals with adult themes" - I've never heard aliens in giant tripods described like that before

  • NotRollergirl Daisy Buchanan (@NotRollergirl) reported

    I am emphatically the least sporty of sporters but I feel terrible for archery. It looks really, really demanding and difficult - and also not something I’d watch as long as the Food Network remains on Freeview.

  • petrolheadtoo Not Gary (@petrolheadtoo) reported

    The first 12 minutes of Sky (freeview) news at 1pm today in the UK was about a trial in the USA. I am so glad i do not pay for this rubbish. I know they are owned by the same company (Comcast) as a major USA woke network

  • jimmymccarthy01 remembering to keep glass half full (@jimmymccarthy01) reported

    Not to be Missed Classic ALL STAR Feel Good 1950s Musical !: 'THE GIRL CAN'T HELP IT' Jayne Mansfied Little Richard Fats Domino The Platters Jean Vincent Julie London Eddie Cochran Talking Pictures TV, channel 81 Freeview etc ....today 15.30 BST

  • pifflevalve Jon (@pifflevalve) reported

    @BillyHoward423 For context, Freeview is the 'free' digital tv service, and I only have the box because the tv is so old it can't pick up the signal. Even the box is a supermarket own-brand and cost me £19 in 2013. It runs away scared at the thought of actual technology

  • StrictlyOsprey Mark Jones (@StrictlyOsprey) reported

    @RuthElleson I think part of the problem is there used to be two Red Button channels on Freeview to cover the two tables. That and the statement BBC4 is no longer for original programming so at least it’s not a repeat!

  • Nicky_Harrison_ 𝗘𝗸𝗹𝗲𝗸𝘁𝗶𝗸𝗶𝗡𝗶𝗸𝗶🇬🇧 (@Nicky_Harrison_) reported

    @colinphoenix @ToniHargis @punkgirldiaries I'm on #Freeview. Never seen it.

  • jorge_rupes Ian (@jorge_rupes) reported

    @JohnBrownsBod12 @TurboKitty Just to say that there's a concert of Bad Company at Redocks on Sky Arts (Ch. 11 Freeview) today (Sat.) at 5.15pm. Sounds good to me! 🤘😎🤘
