TV guide not displaying on screen so cant record a programme?

Hi Neil, This is just to thank you very much for your prompt reply to my email question. Your instructions were so simple and easy to follow, and my Thompson Free View is working well now.

I only wish other people were as helpful as you.

Please accept my thanks and gratitude.

You are the 27th person to ask that question on howtomendit this month.

Top Up TV used to broadcast a 14 day programme guide, but permanently ceased broadcasting on 1st November 2013.

You need to change to the freeview 8 day guide.
Menu >> Set-up >> Change your box settings >> TV Guide Type
Use the < > keys to switch to the 8 day freeview guide.

Immediately after changing the setting to the 8 day epg a Top Up TV recorder owner should be patient. It can take a few hours before all the epg is populated without any gaps.

If you still have a card installed then one suggestion elsewhere is to also remove the card.

Good luck.
