Re-Tuning My Tv

[hereIam]

Having recently re-tuned as advised, I have lost three channels - nos. 7, 48 and 50 on Freeview. Anybody else have this problem ?

Morning HereIam, are you on Virgin by any chance, this happened to a friend of mine, are you doing a full retune where it looks for all channels ?

[BagPussAA]

What was on those three channels? Have they moved to alternative channels?

[10ClarionSt]

It's well known that some cannels are moved to alternative ones on Freeview. On ours, Channel 7 is the local news channel, but it's still there.

[hereIam]

Thanks for answers, not I'm not on Virgin, I just have a freeview box attached to my TV. I can't see them on alternative channels and I've almost gone bog eyed trying to find them! Channel 7 on mine was Liverpool TV and it's totally gone now.

Channel 50 shows films and 48 I think was called True Entertainment. I liked 49 because it had constant re-runs of Millionaire which I like.

^ sorry '48' not 49.

I did a full re-tune by the way.

I'm getting messages to re-tune next week (W Midlands). Hate doing it cos I have to reset all my favourites.

[Bobbisox1]

Hehe, I read that as I’m not a Virgin
Slappppp, haha

[hereIam]

[hereIam]

davebro, I've never had this problem before when re-tuning. It's a pain.

Gotta go now, will be back to check later. Thank you.

hIa, you will find that some channels have been renamed, eg True entertainment is now Sony Channel.

Thank you bhg and choux. I'll see if I've got the Sony channel because True Entertainment is the one I will miss the most. (Flamin' 5G!!).
