@jaxlfc_jj @YaTerrynorris70 It’s not restricted to the BBC. If you watch or record live TV on any channel - either through your TV or through a website - then you need a TV licence. This applies whether you receive Freesat, Freeview or a pay-TV service in your home, & whether or not you watch BBC channels.

@Robbie__Bell @ITVX Just finished watching The Twelve - painful experience to say the least - ad breaks not close tent, sound issues, long black gaps - tried on Freeview and Sky and it’s just as bad either way! So glad I don’t pay for premium!!!!

@ITV Help!!. I am three quarters of the way through THe Bay when ITV X went back to the home screen. I cant see the end of the episode without watching it all again. I'm on ordinary freeview,but on a pc as we have a bad reception. This happens every time I watch ITV X now.

@LeeroyWildman Freeview Leeroy I am fortunate to have Channel 4 on my phone so no problem I watched it on that instead but it was strange it wasn't on my televisions 🤔 I even went downstairs to see if it was just my bedroom one But the sitting room one didn't have it either 🥺

@FreeviewAdvice Is there some sort of problem with Freeview in southern England? For weeks now, I’ve had certain channels breaking up and some even going missing completely after retuning. I have both 4G and 5G filters and had no problems at all with transmission until recently.

@TalkTV Why is the picture quality on Freeview so poor compared to GB News or even online?

@B2theRich It was dreadful. Three out of five is extremely generous. It's the type of terrible b-movie you see on a random Freeview channel at 2pm in the afternoon.

Ok but seriously this is actually **** Switching to streaming only when ~1.5 million houses in the UK still have no internet access and mostly rely on freeview channels for entertainment is awful. What will low economic children have for entertainment now

@dangermouse2 @alanshearer @DannoMkII The service isn't the BBC, it's freeview channels and other live TV channels. You don't have to pay it just because you own a device that could do that, only if you use it for that.

@Broadcastnow Poor move @ITV @ITVX - the channel still rates relatively healthily and in Freeview homes especially is serving an audience who may not have access to reliable online streaming (not that ITVX is a reliable online streamer!)
