  • PaulW_1 Paul Williams✈️ (@PaulW_1) reported from Sale, England

    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

  • thelobsterboy Paul Smith (@thelobsterboy) reported from Manchester, England

    I love these Freeview updates. Each time I rescan the television I seem to lose additional channels! I'm down to QVC, Free Sports and That's 70s and it's only 3pm!

    @mickmcfc1 I'll never know. I've pulled the cable out. BBC Parliament on freeview only from now on. They talk absolute bollocks but rarely about football. I'm in!

  • DavidSwindells1 David Swindells (@DavidSwindells1) reported from Macclesfield, England

    Hope we don't get this warm weather very often.#freeview doesn't work because of the high atmospheric pressure apparently. How am I going to watch #loveisland

  • m7leicauser Andy Barton (@m7leicauser) reported from Comberbach, England

    @FreeviewTV Thanks to Dan at Freeview, the aerial-out retune x2 seems to have cured the problem. 👍

  • MaryMares81 mary whitfield (@MaryMares81) reported from Salford, England

    @FreeviewAdvice we have lost the majority of freeview channels having retuned a few times. Used the availability checker which says channels should be available, can you help? Thanks

  • MikeBates04 Mike 🇬🇧 #Britishindependent (@MikeBates04) reported from Manchester, England

  • mecafolidas Mark Foley (@mecafolidas) reported

    @MahyarTousi Do tell how you are going to move it to a subscription & how long that'd take? Freeview isn't compatible, broadband not in all parts of the UK etc etc. Radio? Only potential solution is advertising - huge hit to ITV etc. Note: Gov & BBC Trust blocked iPlayer expansion/sub in '09.

  • lewismj_waioeka Michael Lewis (@lewismj_waioeka) reported

    @LaylaMoran @BBCOxford If the BBC is great, it will have no trouble getting subscribers, what are you afraid of? Why force say pensioners or the poor to pay a regressive tax? They may be happy with FreeView, why should they be forced into paying for the BBC if they don't want it?

  • kentindell Ken Tindell (@kentindell) reported

    @stephenkb @colinelves There’s a technical issue with existing Freeview (DVB-T2 as rolled out in the UK) equipment being used for content access. It’s impractical to turn conventional TV into pay TV. So it will have to be free to air plus top up TV via streaming and/or another box.

  • DawnSpinks2 Dawn Spinks (@DawnSpinks2) reported

    @catherinerusse2 @Public_Campaign @NadineDorries Signed & RT'd! ✅ I only have Freeview channels so if we lost the BBC further down the the line I would lose a big chunk of my best viewing! Admittedly I could maybe use the licence money to buy something else...but is the quality of new content as good as the BBC?!🙄

  • mclowes2308 Martin Clowes (@mclowes2308) reported

    @SophieRose19x @sophielouisecc Might come as a surprise but ITV, C4 & C5 have managed fine with no public money for over 60,40&25 years. All free, never mind other channels on freeview, you know they use this thing called advertising, which if the BBC is as popular as they make out will have plenty of offers

  • IT_Maverick ITMaverick (@IT_Maverick) reported

    Many pensioners in this country rely on Freeview and don't have sky, Netflix etc, the irony is for them to get the services they enjoy now will cost 20+ per month in private subscriptions. Good news for Murdoch bad news for the pensioners. #BBCLicenceFee

  • TomStockport TomStockport (@TomStockport) reported

    @LewisJamesBrown I'd agree with that - keep more radio (hard to outreach places and one which really add value - R3) Gap with freeview used by people lower down the income scale needs addressing. Get the commercial arm to subsidise Radio and the TV channel (s).

  • twittypolitty Kevin Evans (@twittypolitty) reported

    @ClaireJHartnell @Porrohman @jamiebglover Bad analogy. You can watch ITV, Channel 4, and the rest of the Freeview channels for free (clue is in the name), or you can watch Netflix or Sky etc., which you can pay for as and when you want to use them. The BBC is a non requirement both in terms of content and personal cost.

  • JeffTrainer3 Jeff Trainer (@JeffTrainer3) reported

    @Uptotherewithit @TVSanjeev Well that stuff is paid for so just strip the woke crap & run World Service type news & all the old programs on Freeview, but not funded by a Licence Fee or the taxpayer. All other sport, comedy, films, etc can go on Advert or subscription model, and that pays for the former!

  • josephjonesct3 josephjonesct3@icloud.com (@josephjonesct3) reported

    @zsk That’s why we watch Freeview. The problem is, many will have to work for a living, rather than being a parasite on the public purse and demanding the stealth tax by menaces
