  • 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.

    Why do I keep paying for TV service which is shit @BTGroup I get better service on indoor freeview aerial

  • Robbo72uk Andy Roberts (@Robbo72uk) reported from Southport, England

    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!!

    It’s now been 2 days without a tv signal in North Walsham. So annoying when you still have to pay for a tv licence. #Freeview

    @Myaa_silvss And to make it worst I’m forced to watch ****** Freeview tv because they don’t have smart tv’s in a room that can cost you £1000

  • M1KE_HARRIS Mike 🇬🇧🚀🍴 (@M1KE_HARRIS) reported

    @UKTVPlayHelp It's not resolved at all. Sharp aquos tv and JVC tv. Tried playing through freeview play and casting via Samsung s22 Ultra. This app is terrible! It happens on no other. Disney plus, Amazon video, Netflix all work fine as do the ones on Freeview play.

    @ToeiAnimation In my early teens, there was this freeview channel called Kix. One day, a cool-looking cartoon called Dragon Ball Z was on (I think it was during the Cell Saga). Funny thing is I never remember the exact moment I found out how popular it was, or that it was an anime.

    @JoEdwards41 If you have freeview, they're shown on Sky Arts, I thought I'd watched them all but had never seen this one. It's a freaky aul theme innit?

  • dmodeboy Stevie 🏳️‍🌈 (@dmodeboy) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi. I'm in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk and my freeview is pretty unwatchable. I keep retuning but it makes no difference. Earlier I had no ITV which is ridiculous. Can you please help?
