I have retuned my freeview digibox 3 times as in the instructions. After each retune it still asked me to retune again whenever I turned my TV on. Now there is only analogue - no digital. My box is a Philips. Any ideas please?

In all the articles about this, I did read that 'they' thought about 20,000 boxes would stop working altogether, but no reason was given why. Perhaps yours is one of these? Is it an early type?
Try restoring it to factory default and then installing it as you did when you first bought it. Your manual should tell you how to do this.
There are various helpful guides you can download here. There are several Philips models and you need to select which one you have.

There is a list of models that are known to have problems that prevent retuning here - none of them are Philips manufacture so that should not be the issue here.

If your control has a button marked DVB, press ind the go through your retuning procedure.
This is maybe not for boxes only Digi TV poss, but you've got to try anything.
