    @TalkingPicsTV Definitely. We struggle getting Freeview and as you’re not on BT TV I’m missing my fix!

  • karlmcintyre Karl McIntyre (@karlmcintyre) reported from St Helens, England

    @drewhill79 @VodafoneUK @MattJConnor @StHKHIS Same here. BT got the 150 mb and it flies. Good support and I stream everything!! Don’t even have normal freeview.

  • 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.

  • Toffeewolfie Philip whitehurst (@Toffeewolfie) reported from Liverpool, England

    @rlwjones @Nick_Metcalfe @MarkyBunny They made one champions League game per round free to air..usually the crap games though..they used to have a channel on Freeview..

  • m7leicauser Andy Barton (@m7leicauser) reported from Comberbach, England

    @FreeviewTV Thanks to Dan at Freeview, the aerial-out retune x2 seems to have cured the problem. 👍

    i hope TNA pulls back somehow, also hope they put their foot down about this WWE partnership, be it gaining something from them or just cutting the tie entirely TNA has a special place in my heart since i wasnt able to watch wwe without sky sports and they were on freeview 😔

  • KevMonynys Kev Thomas 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇬🇧 (@KevMonynys) reported

    @73_seaking @SkyNews @TrevorPTweets When? I have no problems at all receiving it on Freeview, and I can’t remember it ever disappearing from my screen.

  • BellaDonnelly Bella Donnelly (@BellaDonnelly) reported

    @BLAHBLAHBL53710 @ECOWARRIORSS u are missing the point, it is swapping from the current freeview to streaming services etc tv licence is a different issue

    @dyson123 @jdpoc The original meme stated “this year the government will decide whether to turn off the freeview signal”, that statement is false and misleading

    @BBCStokeSport @GMcGarrySport @ThePeterMorse Thanks Radio Stoke. So when I'm driving up to Carlisle later I'll have to get my freeview TV connected to the car 🤨. Absolute jokers. Letting Graham and Pete down. Get in the bin #CreweAlex

  • Nuttypharty Nuttyphart (@Nuttypharty) reported

    Why is the government trying to get rid freeview now? The BBC, channel 4, all want the channels via streaming only. So they can clamp down on tv license via ip addresses, more like. There's a petition to block it. Google freeview petition and sign it!

    @Hill_Darran @skytv Sky messed up my move & I’ve never bothered getting it again. Thought I’d miss it but don’t at all. NowTV for the few things I really want to see but otherwise on demand & freeview totally fine!
