    Hadn't realised rural Freeview was still so terrible compared to in metropolitan areas. I get 80 Freeview channels in Dudley nr Birmingham, Dad gets 21 in South Shropshire! And doesn't even get Sky News which I assumed was on Freeview everywhere.

    The #5g nonsense is awful. People setting fire to masts serving critical communications is madness. The frequency used in 5g has been redeployed from tv / freeview but still considerably lower power. 5g’s only side effect is faster & lower latency mobile internet #5gconspiracy

    @BillySarstard @vwgti80 @DJBURNS_was I see no issue. If you dont want to fund freeview then don't get a tv licence. You get what you pay for

  • Christonabikee Christ on a bike (@Christonabikee) reported

    @elseano85 @NoContextBrits Freeview channels funding themselves through advertising, like they already do, & paid ad-free subscription services, like the ones that already exist Literally the only thing that needs to change is the BBC becoming a subscription service. It isn't that difficult to understand

    @ianpaynesport you can change the tv channel numbers, mind you it took me 10 years to find out. Eg. One is no longer bbc, it can be whatever you set it as. (Freeview) I never watch bbc itv channel 4

    @PhoenixTCat @MPrepuce We lurv #FREESAT it offers SÖ MUCH MØRE than #FREEVIEW and costs not a Squid more than the initial dish & decoder! I still fail to comprehend WHY THE HELL ANYÒNE CÖULD EVEN CONSIDER @VirginMedia. Yùķ!

    As anyone else noticed in the last few days the terrible reception on Freeview channels?

  • Andrew88820142 Andy (@Andrew88820142) reported

    How is it they can send signals from millions of miles away in space back to a little laboratory on Earth, when I can't even get a good TV signal off freeview 😭😡😡. This is supposed to be the 21st century.. Buck Rogers never had this problem.

  • luke0586 Luke Clarke (@luke0586) reported

    @skytv @SkyHelpTeam it’s always confused me that if you pay Sky for their TV service using their equipment and dishes, you still have to pay for a separate licence… surely this should be included in your billing as they are providing the service… #TVLicence #Sky #Freeview

    @DukeHollyrood @Inside_TheRopes As far as I've seen, @peacockTV is basically a free add-on, not a self-contained broadcasting network, so it'll likely be available alongside current networks, either as an additional service alongside a major network, a free service (similar to Freeview), or both.
