    @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.

  • quodignoratum Myles Winstone (@quodignoratum) reported from Warrington, England

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

  • 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.

    @PauletteFarrell @thecricketmen Do you really think it hasn't suffered and cricket too. How many people will cancel sky when they have to cut back as millions will with the cost of living going up so terribly. And what is FTA ? Free if you already have sky or actually available on Freeview or just plain TV ? I

  • IanTurnberry IanC 🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🌈 (@IanTurnberry) reported

    I'm going to treat myself to a big bar of chocolate today. Apart from being a clever little boy FINALLY setting up my new TV and Freeview Recorder and Google Laptop I also had good news on my diabetes, still OK and my blood pressure, normal. Umm maybe chocolate isn't a good idea

  • embee200 Mark Anthony Cameron 🇬🇧 (@embee200) reported

    @VoiceofCal It's only if you watch or record live TV or watch anything on iPlayer which is the BBC's own video on demand service. This includes any channel broadcasting in the UK, Sky, freesat, even freeview tv-the channels preprogrammed into a TV when you buy it.

  • DSkippings Darren Skippings (@DSkippings) reported

    This privatisation of Ch4, would include the stake in freeview that is part owned between BBC, ITV and CH4, another terrible idea, from our government of terrible ideas.

  • SLH68141003 Noname (@SLH68141003) reported

    @Ingear @LucyMPowell You can on freeview. Which old and poor people like me have. Hands off C4!🤬🤬😡

  • Strawhat_Slime Tsuna_Dokkan (CEO of Tsuna) Reborn! Hiveleader (@Strawhat_Slime) reported

    @crimsonalt122 @Zappy_Is_Happy Trust me I know, I grew up with only freeview, no Cartoon Network or Nickelodeon, only CBeebies, CBBC, CITV and Tiny Pop

  • GordyPls iGordy 2.0 (@GordyPls) reported

    I got a new TV and now standard free to air TV looks terrible because streaming services understand nice TVs exist and Freeview appears to basically have ignored everything that happened in TVs since about 2007.

  • ronniet240 Ronnie 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 totally 🇬🇧 (@ronniet240) reported

    @toryman1979 We use to have Sky but realised we were paying to watch advertising when we could get for free on FreeView. No point paying twice for the same crap!

  • firebird7X3 Firebird7x3 #FBPE #FBPA #FBPR #FBPPR #StuffBrexit (@firebird7X3) reported

    @Helenmacca @helenamayb @NadineDorries They both make a lot of content these days but channel four already does that Big question is will it become subscription outside the TV licence in which case they will be depriving Freeview viewers of several channels & an online streaming service, hardly fair & worth pushing
