@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.

@ConsPost @DrSpock_PhD Meanwhile those of us living in older (and new) rural properties have broadband little faster than dial-up and no prospect of anything better as Openreach are too busy servicing newbuild estates. See also poor water pressure, many power cuts, lack of mobile signal, no freeview

@aboveeg By ghosting you mean that shadowy effect there used to be on the old analogue signals years ago? Digital signal seems different ... just breaks up / buffers/ whatever they call it. Its so bad this evening have nothing watchable. We're not on Sky, just Freeview: nothing working.

@FreeviewTV so it’s down yet again. It’s 2021, can we really not have a signal when the air pressure is high? Try dealing with someone with Dementia who can’t use iPlayer etc. I’m bloody fuming. We didn’t have this problem with analogue TV. It’s a **** show. #freeview

@chasnbons @FreeviewTV Hi Phil, I am so very sorry to learn you are experiencing issues with your Freeview reception. High pressure has been present for a few days and hopefully will move on soon. If you have retuned, you will have to retune again once the weather changes. Thank you, Melissa

@TMitC @WeedonsWorld Can't get any TV programmes at all due to Freeview outage in Norfolk. Doesn't appear to be on iPlayer either. Only regular series.

@jodimullen I suppose it would be a frankly huge pain in the *** to replace all those ordinary Freeview boxes/in-builds to re-standardise new codecs and data delivery to increase resolution/quality. MPEG-2 really is showing its age on some of these data-starved channels.
