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!!

@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.

@dogdownlockdown @LostatLothric @adlow76 But surely you can eventually watch WSS on some sort of freeview service, no? What's weird is that Elgort's currently appearing in a show, Tokyo Vice, that's just started on the BBC.

@stephen_latham @itvfootball Itv4 HD on Virgin is only on highest TV tier only which we don't have. Freeview 26 is standard def itv4 which looks like **** on a 4k TV. (I think it's 576p resolution)

@BullAntics Nope. And reception is so poor here that we only get about 14 channels on Freeview.

@HisenseGlobal I have just bought a Hisense smart tv. Was told by the shop it has freeview. However, it’s freeview plus which seems to mean I can only watch tv through the individual channel apps and not able to get a tv listings of all channels to scroll through. Can you help?

@BritBox_UK @ITVX This sounds like a repeat if the Ondigital saga, became ITVDigital closed down and became Freeview.

We have an old DTT freeview box in our cord-never house that only makes special appearances every two years, when the old girl is dusted off for the World Cup and the Euros. Tells you all you need to know about reliability of live streaming services for footy. Anyone else?

@GidonFreeman @MattRogerson The issue is the aerial (irrelevant for streamed programming) not the presence or absence of a freeview box.

@JaseHeeley It is at times like this that I am glad I only get the minimal Freeview service where I am.
