    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!!

  • AndyMcK1982 Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @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.

    @drewhill79 @VodafoneUK @MattJConnor @StHKHIS Same here. BT got the 150 mb and it flies. Good support and I stream everything!! Don’t even have normal freeview.

    @CourtTVUK Why have you taken Court TV from Freeview? It says ‘service closed’? Is it now only available on pay platforms such as Sky/Freesat? Neither are totally free, for FreeSat you need a box and dish. Freeview is available to all. Can’t understand why youclosed it?

  • little_mavis Mary Wombat 🐝💙 (@little_mavis) reported

    Right. I'm going to pretend all this **** isn't happening foe a bit. Anything good on the (Freeview) telly tonight?

  • Kimmylea4 Lady Kimmylea (@Kimmylea4) reported

    @Peter_Fitz Now I only know them as freeview/on demand apps, because my antenna broke 3 years ago and I never bothered to fix it.

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @FedupRepat @FreeviewTV Hi, Freeview apps are an add-on service, as the TV does not have an aerial input built-in, there is nothing to add to that, you can receive a similar service as our iOS and Android app available on phones/tablets by downloading the TV players separately. Hope this helps, Dev.

  • ElliotTheUnread Elliot (@ElliotTheUnread) reported

    @beverleyhills8 @GBNEWS Yes this is the stupid thing. They are supporting the TV license by being on Freeview etc. Should have gone internet-only.

  • nashoban_info nashoban productions (@nashoban_info) reported

    @CourtTVUK have you shut down your UK Freeview service? 🙁

  • TheyCallHimR R (@TheyCallHimR) reported

    Tweeps - any reason why my HD freeview channels suddenly have disappeared ?! Tried to retune and they won’t reappear.. was fine a month ago (i dont watch much freeview clearly). Any help/advice?! #ENGAUS

  • UKRichpixie Richard Heading (@UKRichpixie) reported

    Dear stonk, GB news launches on the 13th of June, freeview channel 236. ****. Penguin.

  • tashatam14 tashatam (@tashatam14) reported

    @GBNEWS @DrSpock_PhD No freeview where I live - no signal. I had to have freesat from Sky to get any TV at all when we went digital. I do not have an HD TV and I would have to subscribe to Sky to get channel 515 anyway. And buy a TV license. Where's the online version?

  • Nick72507205 Nick 💙 (@Nick72507205) reported

    @JulieCourtTV Hi Julie, its saying over here in the UK that Court TV on Freeview Ch89 - This service has now closed. Just wondered if you know anything as there are still the channel listings, but no service. Kind regards, Nick.
