    @p4G3y30 @MartinSLewis If you watch or record TV on any channel via any TV service (e.g. Sky, Virgin, Freeview, Freesat), you need to be covered by a TV Licence. You don’t need a TV Licence if you never watch live on any channel, TV service or streaming service, or use BBC iPlayer*. On any device.

    @CharlotteCGill The 20-somethings would not say that, they know UK's senior citizens who rely on a state pension, need pension credit, do not have Netflix, they have Freeview instead, never buy expensive coffees or food outside their home.

    @taffjohnlloyd @skytv No, you can't record once you cancel... Though can still watch the Freeview channels, which is pointless as my telly has Freeview built-in.

    @David__Osland Not watched Freeview & not had a TV Licence since 2015 so Im not contributing to his salary.However if I was then I might have a problem. I disagree with how the BBC & Licence fee has gone for yrs hence why I cancelled. As for Train Drivers & Nurses.Why are Nurses paid so little?

  • chalmers_noel Noel Chalmers (@chalmers_noel) reported

    @AgentDowling 5G tower in the vicinity? I had trouble a while back and the freeview helpline told me this is definitely a factor, confirmed there was one near me, but wouldn’t say where.

  • explodingwalrus Carl Draper (@explodingwalrus) reported

    the @BBC channels on Freeview are all currently down for me

    @TheDaiLlew It took me so long to get out of being a Virgin customer. I eventually got out of the grind by getting a satellite dish installed via BT (as a new customer for the a year) then buying a Freeview box. Now I just have to get the Internet from somewhere and can shop around. Pob lwc!
