  • JasonDragon1975 Jason Ratcliffe (@JasonDragon1975) reported from Chesterfield, England

    @Alexand85266011 @femme_uk @GBNEWS Freeview isn't very reliable for me either. I'm only 10 miles [as the crow flies] from the South Yorkshire Transmitter, yet I can only receive 6 of the 15 HD channels available. BBC1, BBC2, ITV1, Channel 4, Channel 5 and CBBC. The signal quality/strength is on average 80%.

    @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.

    @ErickWGN16 @scottygb @Eurosports Damn it I only have Freeview :(

  • FrancineFishpa4 Francine Fishpaw (@FrancineFishpa4) reported

    @ToryRambo @GBNEWS Most signal issues on any Freeview channel are due to the Transmitters and also weather. None of this can be fixed by @GBNEWS or any TV or Radio channel.

  • xdddreaded Aiden (@xdddreaded) reported

    When will we be getting camera/freeview options in @PlayApex? I wanna be able to get some cool aerial shots for some graphics n' ****, and rn timing your inspect animation with taking a delayed screenshot, not to mention at max settings, is just a pain in the anushole. I need!

  • Amanda45887585 Amanda (@Amanda45887585) reported

    @DisorderAwesome Only have freeview I think. Don’t pay for any service

  • JackMars85 BatZie 🇮🇪 (@JackMars85) reported

    @Nicky_Harrison_ @GBNEWS I know. Wonder if no support for my phone (s6). A real shame as every other news outlet app seems to work. Really wanted to watch GBNews online, especially as I refuse to pay BBC licence fee and thus have no Freeview/Sky/etc TV service.

  • jayaumes Jay Aumes (@jayaumes) reported

    @NickBuckleyMBE @DefundBBC Totally agree. I've been saying this for years. Unlike other people who suggest turning it into a subscription service, I say just force them to show commercials instead like all the other channels on Freeview.
