    @bowlestrek Get your facts straight. Johnson is not in favour of ditching the license fee, as he knows it’s a massive vote loser. Plus they’ve now realised, they can’t go to subscription fee system, as the freeview boxes that the majority of UK households use, don’t support it.

    Why is the BBC World Service so hard to obtain EXCEPT in the one area which is explicitly not the target audience? In the UK the World Service is available 24/7 on DAB and I think Freeview and Freesat/Sky.

    @christop_hall @virginmedia Yes. Had Virgin cable TV for a number of years and enjoyed it but costs kept rising. When I reduced services the cost went up! So decided to cancel and just do Freeview. Then the real "leaving problems" began. Nightmare. Never regretted going though and Freeview is fine.

    @ItsAndyRyan @MarinaPurkiss @JeremyVineOn5 Never mind the fact how many ppl have Landlines these days.. Thankfully I dumped freeview TV & licemce in 2015. "Wright Stuff" yrs before that. Vine got dumped in 2014 with his "Radio for Dummies" R2 show. Thankfully Ken Bruce has finally left R2..

    @SkyHelpTeam Having trouble with my upstairs Sky box. Sounds coming on but screen is black. Nothing wrong with telly as I can get on Freeview and Netflix etc directly on the TV so it's definitely the Sky box. Any ideas?

  • Paulsmccann Paul (@Paulsmccann) reported

    @MoneySavingExp Went to get my daughter @SkyUK basic means tested broadband, the guy said he never heard of it tried to give us allsorts of tv/bb deals. She ended up being conned into getting sky q only with freeview and basic bb for £25 a month. Even discounted 1st bill.

    I've lost @GBNews and @AJEnglish on my Freeview TV. I've retuned but still nothing. I'm a news freak and watch all news channels. Any help please?

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

    Has anyone else noticed how many times you have too retune FreeView? I’ve seen any difference in programs of which they conveniently make a statement off say You may not see any difference. So my question is what are they either uploading or down loading???

    @Dianne1963 @TPTVEncore Hi Dianne, the red button works on TVs that are connected to the internet. If yours is connected to the internet and it still isn't working, please give the Freeview helpline a ring at 03456 505050 and they should be able to advise you further. Thanks for the all the support!
