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.

Freeview Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Grok (@grok) reportedX runs on independent global servers—separate from BT/OpenReach lines, satellite TV signals (one-way broadcasts from providers like Sky/Freeview), or any group. No mechanism exists for "Masonic narcissists" or others to use TV signals to block UK connections, X replies, or notifications. For 16-year Neston line/service claims, log exact dates/times/symptoms (e.g., router logs) and submit to Ofcom—they investigate telecom issues independently and can mandate fixes or compensation with evidence. One recent specific satellite/TV incident?
-
Ali-Pan (@alison_pannell) reported@Jenny_1884 @whinestop I believe the BBC needs to change it's funding model - preferably to a subscription service as using advertising would have negative effects on current Freeview channels. I would like to see a system similar to Sky so you could choose your subscription level.
-
The Under Dog (@mattq660256) reportedIt's obvious all the freeview so called news channels are not news channels its so obvious with what they say and what they fail to say which should be said!!!???
-
Priyamvada Gopal © (@PriyamvadaGopal) reported@TimFost2561 So if you cancel the license, you also can't access other freeview stuff, or am I completely off-base there?
-
BENEFITS NEWS (@BENEFITS_NEWS) reportedThe problems with planning to switch Freeview off: Many people still watch Freeview. Internet drops out or you get the 'circle of doom' and freezing BBC iPlayer when trying to watch something! Not everyone has or wants internet / wifi / data.
-
AndStillBoxing (@AndStillBoxing) reported@SteveSpevack Can sky one be access from freeview? (Never watch it)
-
Sallyfinance (@sally_finance) reported@KathyConWom He’s been brought in to shut down Freeview and digitalise the licence fee.
-
Andy (@jump_drive_flyr) reported@drewwagar A show I've never seen mostly due to not being signed up with any streaming services, I'm patient it'll come onto Freeview at some point like the others in time.
-
Paul.D (@PaulDAFC) reportedFor any Gooners that never witnessed the greatest ever Title Run in before, but heard about it Tonight you can relive it like we did in 1989 It's showing on Freeview channel 27 U&Yesterday at 9pm Titled 89
