  • 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.

  • UridiumAuthor Andrew Braybrook (@UridiumAuthor) reported

    @moresunshine_1 I already have to do all my Mum's PC and tablet updates, along with all her Freeview re-tuning that goes on. We just had a big channel shuffle/loss as some more bandwidth is given to the 5G mobile network. I like that they can fix bugs, but new features should be optional.

  • ratters64 Ratters (@ratters64) reported

    @tonyplay1066 @ladbible Believe it or not, I pay for Sky Movies, Amazon Prime, Netflix And Disney+ and almost everything I watch is on terrestrial, I should cancel and just get Freeview🤪

  • RetiredBroker Sir George (@RetiredBroker) reported

    @artbookreviews I was aked to set up a freeview box for a friend. Never seen so many wires, gadgets, remotes. Ended up in a loft (no floor!) making friends with an aerial. I think they have 6 TV's but I lost count...

  • KoalaBarry Barry (the Koala). (@KoalaBarry) reported

    @littlemore20 Mom never heard of it - who would have thought EE would affect Freeview !!

  • Churchill59 Graeme C. Halloway (@Churchill59) reported

    @EE I am SO DISAPPOINTED Wth the Signal of My EE Samsung Fe20 5G Mobile indoors DL14 9UH. 40% is One Bar to NIL, CONSTANTLY. Despite Alleged Improvements.The TV Freeview ALSO Constantly Drops Out. YET Signal, without using the HUMAX FREEVIEW BOX is Fine. What IS HAPPENING??

  • littlemore20 Tessa Bennett remembering Toddy and Kevin (@littlemore20) reported

    Does anybody know why CBS Justice (Freeview channel 69) says "Service Closed"? Is it permanent?

  • SteveinGX Steve (@SteveinGX) reported

    Really sad that Forces TV is no longer on Freesat or Freeview. Only available to service personnel now. Makes you wonder what's about to kick off in Eastern Europe and Scandinavia that the general public won't be able to watch

  • EmmaLovelace Emma Lovelace (@EmmaLovelace) reported

    So any atmospheric pressure over 1,005 mBar just lays to waste nearly half of my Freeview channels. Goes from 147 to 96. All BBC, ITV and Channel 4 gone. Pulling the aerial out and returning trick, does not help With the rain last night, did get 107 now back to 96.

  • yabouhti Sheikh Yabouhti (@yabouhti) reported

    @GitGrumpygit Simple, CANCEL IT & use Freeview. Any organisation that shafts me that I can do without, gets cancelled and/or switched.

  • _oatc_ oatc (@_oatc_) reported

    @RobM37099974 @tx_pros @jduffyrice Not sure how many in 🇬🇧 even realise the channel exists on Freeview never mind having opinions about it. Obviously, you're right in respect of conspiracy theory devotees in 🇺🇸
