@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.

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!!

@Bob71136804 @BBCSport That's the iplayer. The "red button" is page 601 on freeview. You click on the screen for the iplayer and @BBCSport will force you to swear your life away that you have a tv licence and make you sign in! Many elderly, disabled, poor just do not have the wherewithall or tech!!

@Bert1897 @J0hn8ev @MikeKeegan_DM ******* you're stupid. If they stop the TV licence, how do you think they'll fund the BBC & the freeview platform? We'll just start paying for it through taxation.

@TheSimonEvans What's interesting though is that Benny Hill was hounded out of town by us folk who thought ourselves 'right on' back then. 30 years later he's back on Freeview and - guess what - turns out some of it is awful a lot of it is surprisingly funny and creative.

Edinburgh tweeps: Has anyone been experiencing Freeview ITV & Ch4 issues since yesterday's rain shower? Our signal deteriorated the moment the heavens opened yesterday and it's still flaky today. I note no obvious issues on downdetector etc. (though issues were noted yesterday)

Can anyone explain to me the point of #ITV4+1 on #Freeview? It never seems to broadcast. Just a waste of bandwidth. #ITV

Finally, check streaming services. Freevee. The best free streaming service overall Peacock. Pluto TV. Roku Channel. Tubi. ... Crackle. ... Vudu. ... Sling Free. Negotiate a lower monthly cost or switch provider. Take advantage of freeview and freeway. Get those old DVDs out.

@kestenan I believe you can own a TV but you only need the License to watch their channels or something stupid. Can use a TV screen for a computer screen if it has no freeview built in. BUT i could be wrong...

@drstevebagley yeah, but my point is more that the same content is separately uploaded on multiple platforms - so actually maybe rather than channels, these apps are like Sky/Virgin/Freeview. Some of which require login/pay, some of which don't.

The Howling is about to start on Legend (channel 41 on Freeview). For some reason I have never seen this before.

Still find it horrendous that @bbcthree has HD on freeview to show Ru WTF Drag Race but a proper service like @BBCFOUR4 is demoted to SD and ready to be dropped? How many licence fee payers actually watch the shite they put out on @bbcthree
