@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.

@FreeviewTV Thanks to Dan at Freeview, the aerial-out retune x2 seems to have cured the problem. 👍

@virginmedia hi. I've got a friend who has your service, TV, broadband & phone. If you put her price up, she will drop the TV and keep broadband. Use Freeview, channels on Amazon, Discovery + & Disney. Plus Now TV. Total still cheaper than you.

@williambecket @NadineDorries The cheapest Sky package I can find is £26 (which includes the "tax"-payer funded freeview service). Letting the BBC go commercial would mean that pensioners would save £13 a month but they wouldn't get any TV for that. So in effect you'd be doubling the cost for pensioners!

@HelloSanctuary no TV input on sky or Freeview. Contractor for this came this morning. Can't get into the AV equipment cupboard. Can't get through to sky. Utterly shambolic way to treat Tennant's. Who runs a business like this??

Not just freeview issues, but our internet is also flickering.

Is anyone else having problems with the BBC on freeview? Other freeview channels seem to be ok, and CBeebies has re-emerged a couple of times, but we’ve had ‘weak or no signal’ for three or four days. No errors listed on the transmitter page…

@williambecket @NadineDorries Hi William. The most popular way for pensioners to receive TV is via Freeview. The licence fee pays to maintain the Freeview transmitter network. Presumably this “pay rise” for pensioners can then pay for this?

@kennethtwist @PeterBoneUK Then don't pay if the BBC is a subscription service. There will be FREEview. The poorest in society would appreciate not be threatened with fines or prison for watching television.

Fog! Temperature Inversion! Weird things may happen to your Freeview signal tonight and tomorrow. Don't retune! (Unless your hobby is DXing and you want to see if you can get some out-of-region/foreign services.)

I only deal with news about Freeview and Virgin Media UK. (And the soon to launch Virgin Media IPTV Network).
