  • elymusic1 Jan Payne 🎼⛪♿ (@elymusic1) reported from Histon, England

    Nooooo just lost our TV signal in the middle of @TheRepairShop Christmas programme. Freeview signal out across much of Cambs but until this minute we'd been ok. Thank heavens for iPlayer so we can see the rest later.

  • Lord_Drainlid Mick Brown (@Lord_Drainlid) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    @MrCoolHandLuke @PairoMayniaq @Telegraph Much of the country can't and will never get Freeview or full fibre broadband. In future it will be the same with 4G and 5G and whatever comes next.

  • CliveRoper Clive Roper (@CliveRoper) reported from Dalham, England

    @TalkTV Can you not improve the picture quality on Freeview?? Compared to (GBNews) it is awful.

    @JordanRasko @seanforeilly @MicaKilabie Bottom line, if it's too expensive don't spend for it. Freeview still exists and paid for by ads. If it's price gouging, make a complaint with ACCC. Using 'expensive' to justify piracy is just plain wrong.

    @JuliaHB1 You fail to mention the BBC also contribute to both Broadband and Freeview. I suppose you never use them either ? All for 43p a day 👍

  • gardner_sd stuart gardner (@gardner_sd) reported

    @VirtuaMcPolygon @byford_ian @DavidLammy Doesn’t part of the license fee go towards maintaining the transmission network for freeview?

  • VModifiedMind Vince (@VModifiedMind) reported

    @iandeeley @peterson_joey @reckless Freeview is awful yes, as is DAB.

  • JoshHarris91 Josh Harris (@JoshHarris91) reported

    @chrisbardell @davidschneider If you use a subscription service ie Sky/Virgin then the licence fee should be optional until you want BBC added to your plan (then you pay the fee). If you watch freeview then you pay the licence fee as it’s funding the service you use. Just give people the choice.

  • pjtobin00 Paddy (@pjtobin00) reported

    License fee also goes into the Freeview network, free children education. Wanting to get rid of it because it reports news, that some people don’t like, is tyrannical #GMB

  • Evilgenius222 GrouchyMarxist (@Evilgenius222) reported

    @mrdanwalker I look every evening on my Freeview app. Apart from war films, programmes about America & Australia, rich peoples hotels or stupid programmes about rich kids dating each other, there’s nothing on.

  • rogermosey Roger Mosey (@rogermosey) reported

    Nice to be on 5 Live with @Mobeen_Azhar to talk about the BBC licence fee. The BBC’s critics argue for a subscription model, but I still haven’t heard a convincing argument about how that would work for network and local radio - or on Freeview television.

  • MamieTea AIMEE (@MamieTea) reported

    @SLUG_MrIBlack and as public money went into it, the code was shared with ITV, Ch4, Ch5. It innovates with loads of tech which it shares. It has public services like language transmissions and there was a section to help people switch to Freeview. What the plan about removing its funding?

  • martin_frasehog Martin F (@martin_frasehog) reported

    @RedemptionBroon @KrisGriffiths @JuliaHB1 It's currently 43p a day, which includes the cost of maintaining the Freeview transmission network, BBC TV, radio, iPlayer, etc. I have no interest in paying for Sky or similar. If that was £2 a day, it would still be a bargain. About the same as a high of street coffee.
