@FreeviewAdvice Well, after waiting 2 weeks for a Freeview engineer we are told we need a new aerial. Also, they can’t help us because we have Sky! So they change Winter Hill and now we have to pay. Why didn’t they say this 3 weeks ago...😳

@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.

Virgin tv and broadband gone down yet again. Resorting to Freeview right now. The picture quality is actually much better than Virgin...AND no glitches and constant picture breakup!!

Trying to work out what causes the interence on UHF 21 474 MHz during the day on Canvey Island. Can't all be down to atmospherics. Would be interested to hear if anyone has any ideas about this issue. It seems to make the Kent freeview comux unwatchable here during daylight hours

@GriffeyHilary @AnthonyICHH @MichaelsCoDub All a VPN does is mask your IP address, BBC is geoblocked in Ireland but with a VPN it makes a new IP Address look like you are in GB. Legal? Who cares? Nobody. You can get bbc free via freesat or freeview in ROI and no legal issues so....

@Samsmilew @RonMooreMoreRon Hello Samantha. Freeview channels are all that many receive. In 2021 the BBC chose to show the same program about the DofE across all its national TV and radio stations. Folk never had the option of switching over to another BBC channel.

I've been watching various reruns of Star Trek on freeview. And I can't help from wondering why the Enterprise doesn't have an IT department or at least why Starfleet Engineering doesn't have an IT division.

@chiddyj @virginmedia Leave them then rejoin as a new customer later........ Freeview for a month then back to a deal you'd have no chance of getting as a customer.
