    @bowlestrek Get your facts straight. Johnson is not in favour of ditching the license fee, as he knows it’s a massive vote loser. Plus they’ve now realised, they can’t go to subscription fee system, as the freeview boxes that the majority of UK households use, don’t support it.

    '@FreeviewTV with the main channels doing saturation coverage of the monarchy people will look for other TV to watch. Who watches 24-hour monarchy day after day? But it does show up just how bad Freeview is though doesn't it. It's rare to find anything worth watching!

  • Seatz37 Tom Hollick (@Seatz37) reported

    @andyps1275 Some obscure freeview channel I didn’t see the name of! Quite the treat - not seen in years!

  • SkyHelpTeam Sky Help Team (@SkyHelpTeam) reported

    @FeralAtticus1 All Sky Q equipment is loaned out to our customers & would need to be returned. When you cancel the Sky TV services the box will not work at all. You would not even get Freeview channels through it. You only need to return the equipment which Sky asked you to return. Lainy

    @BBCLauraKT Welcome to 'Mournhub'. Thank gawd for freeview, Netflix etc. If it really get s bad I'll dust off my videos!

  • Gerrysmart99 Gerry (@Gerrysmart99) reported

    @Margare62511181 Apart from a few webmail issues Eir is the way to go. SKY treated me like a nuisance caller instead of a valued customer.Maybe things have changed over the last ten years & it no longer sends legally sounding threatening letters even tho it was it's own fault. Advise: Freeview😟

  • Lemonhunny Lemonhunny (Lesley) 💉💉💉💙💙 (@Lemonhunny) reported

    @Toughtruth5 @StGilesHighKirk Nobody had to have it on 24/7. If you did, you're stupid. I probably haven't watched 3 hours all told, because amazingly in 2022, there are lots and lots of other free channels, showing regular programmes, even without subscriptions (Freeview etc). Or maybe, just turn it off?

    Does anyone know if Samsung Freesat tvs can receive Freeview like other tvs? I've been ping-ponged between @JohnLewisRetail customer services & technical support, who initially said did, then @SamsungSupport who said didn't, then JL say it needs a digital aerial. 🥴😵‍💫🌀😵

  • JonesCitizen1 CitizenSmith@JonesCitizen (@JonesCitizen1) reported

    @SuperCroup Yes but the stuff for free on YouTube is not to my taste and usually crap. What's Kanopy, not on Freeview. I suppose I could put on a videotape.

  • Rachelgpeters Rachel Peters 🌞 (@Rachelgpeters) reported

    @JamesHalcrow It’s so bad, just went to find something, canned it and decided to stick to Freeview lol

    BBC Red Button 1 now has the lying-in-state live stream running until 6:30am on Monday. Satellite has no-commentry coverage from 0800-1700, then suspension. Freeview currently still has suspension. Overall, BBC very slow to confirm arrangements away from BBC One and BBC Two.
