  • MartinC93414706 Martin (@MartinC93414706) reported from Lambeth, England

    @channel5_tv is the worst for catch up tv via your app or freeview. Just can’t find programmes sometimes. Trying to find Sally Lindsays posh sleepover. C4, itv and BBC never ever have a problem with. I give up with C5

  • Scare158Steve Scarebear (@Scare158Steve) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @bt_uk Thanks for the help. I spoke to freeview, tried a few things which didn't work but i contacted your TV help and after doing a few basic things somehow it appears to be working now! Very Strange. Tks

  • nessymon Nessy 😷 (@nessymon) reported from London, England

    @MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.

  • XtopherCalvert Christmas Calvert (he/him) (@XtopherCalvert) reported from Poplar, England

    Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • rxtv_info RXTV Info (@rxtv_info) reported

    TalkTalk has now closed its 'Boost channel' service, effectively ending its own TV channel platform. ▶ From today, TalkTalk TV boxes will have access to Freeview + a selection of streaming apps. Sky channels continue to be available through the NOW app.

  • lisabriercliffe Lisa B (@lisabriercliffe) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice my freeview channels went last night and still not back, lots of people in Brecon have the same issue, can you advise please?

  • Peter_Mugridge Peter Mugridge (@Peter_Mugridge) reported

    @Saltbar Good God no - I watch on a proper TV with Freeview and only very, very, rarely watch something on whatever channel's iPlayer service it is - and then only if it's something I miss when it's broadcast and I didn't record it either. Is that what you're doing? Online only viewing?

  • gotmergim M (@gotmergim) reported

    @thewoke4ive **** off g u werent with me freeview days

  • wordspinster Debbie Cameron (@wordspinster) reported

    @snigskitchen These pitches are gold tbh, the main problem is that they're trying to become PM instead of finding a home on a midsize Freeview channel

  • PipJGreen Pip Green (@PipJGreen) reported

    Frustrating that communal Freeview TV aerial in a @THHomes block still not working despite repair promised for last Wednesday. Signal distorted, intermittent or non-existant depending on channel. Minor, unless getting out for entertainment is an issue.

  • UKTVPlayHelp UKTV Play Help (@UKTVPlayHelp) reported

    Thank you for your patience whilst we investigate the recent issue seen on some older freeview devices. We are continuing to work on resolving it. We will update when it will be fixed. In the meantime you can still access UKTV Play via other TVs, desktop and mobile.

  • ghiblifan1 Hawklord71 (@ghiblifan1) reported

    @FryFive @All4 It's now literally the only Freeview catch-up service missing. This reflects badly on both LG and Channel 4 now, as ITV Hub, BBC iPlayer and My 5 seemed to have cut a deal, and popped up in the various updates since I purchased the TV.

  • UKTVPlayHelp UKTV Play Help (@UKTVPlayHelp) reported

    Unfortunately some Freeview Play devices are still impacted by an issue we're experiencing around playback. Apologies again for disrupting your viewing experience, we are working on fixing this ASAP We will update here as soon as we have an update. Thanks for your patience
