    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.

  • katy_whitton Katy (@katy_whitton) reported

    Bear in mind that the original Freeview (UK) group was launched back in 2002 so Channel 5 is only 20 or so years late Must have been all of that Public Service stuff they were organising which meant they couldn't join the BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Sky 16/

  • SimonWood2k5 Simon Wood (@SimonWood2k5) reported

    @PhilJonesy3 @MetroUK It's SD on Freeview which doesn't help but not at all good even for SD.

  • WellyGeeNZ Gary Weatherhead 💉x3 (@WellyGeeNZ) reported

    @Suzyiam If you have a modern-ish ‘Freeview’ aerial on your roof then you can get NZ’s free to air Freeview service. 26 TV channels and 2 radio stations (other parts of NZ it may vary, that’s here in Kāpiti). I have a 6yr old TV which gets Freeview fine, plus I use Netflix & Disney apps

    So poor I khan only dream freeview 😳

  • dngakuru Dell (@dngakuru) reported

    @its_milaB @Suzyiam I can recommend this. Got rid of vodafone tv and replaced it with Smart VU. Connects via wifi to your network, simple to set up and simple to use. Retails for less than $120. Has all the streaming apps and a great freeview app.

  • leckston Heather (@leckston) reported

    @petemorristwit Simples- the @BBC should be on Freeview or a subscription service. They've screwed the British public for too long.😡

  • David67016669 David and the random numbers (@David67016669) reported

    @BootstrapCook I have a traditional aerial in the loft which runs down to a socket in the lounge, which works for Freeview. Upstairs I have an electrical aerial amplifier for the same.

  • Vash198973 Vash (@Vash198973) reported

    Double standards in this house, she's sat with candles lit, drinking gin, watching basically porn dressed up as a love story on Netflix, never said a word. I got caught watching the television X Freeview years back and she called me a fat ***** #365daysThisDay

  • klothklicker Dee 💉💉💉🇺🇦 (@klothklicker) reported

    @APndrgrst What I like to watch is available free to air, & I don't know where else to find it. This year I tried the free apple TV sub that came with my tablet. Everything was pay per view with a monthly fee as well. I quit! I listen to the radio on Freeview too: no reception issues.
