@KarmaUnc @GMB @joshwiddicombe Yes, but the BBC is a significant contributor to Arquiva who own the masts. They also support Freeview and Freesat.

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!!

@Fionasstalker Great, so anyone that wants to pay for that service should be able to, others on a budget, should be able to opt out and just watch Freeview.

@thenoikz @NadineDorries The problem is the services rhe provide that the disabled would have nothing without, the educational resources schools wouldn’t have, the fact that Freeview transmitters wouldn’t be maintained and the lack of Welsh/Gaelic language services. All “not your problem” though, eh?

@ShineyFx If you even use Freeview ever. You also use it. You do use something it pays for Now that doesn’t equate to you should pay for it. Ofc not, choice is choice But like you do and it will be the case for streaming service eventually

@GizmoWalpole @sima_kotecha @lewis_goodall So the end of BBC education programmes. Along with lots of the other non profit making services cos we’ll be left with only the popular stuff - about right for a populist government. Plus, who is then paying for the Freeview network. It works because of the way it is funded

@JoshHarris91 @davidschneider Explain how subscription service will work with Freeview.

(@coldgooseberry) reported
not. The services aren't even comparable. The BBC provides content across terrestrial TV, radio, the internet, iPlayer, and BBC Studios create programmes for other media companies too. In addition to that they maintain the Freeview network, which is almost certainly... [cont]

...it hasn't helped. Our transmitter is Bilsdale (where there has previously been a fire) but all freeview support we go on says we should be receiving 140 channels. Any ideas? #freeview #BBC1

I'd feel a lot more positive about the @BBC if it sorted out its @Freeview signal here so that it doesn't become unwatchable when it gets a bit hot. And no @FreeviewAdvice it's not about retuning sets, it's about transmitting on part of the band the transmitter is optimised for.

@jamesdeeganMC @BBC Agreed. To add insult to this we keep losing the digital signal on a regular basis on freeview so keep missing out on watching programmes.

@d0hertyry4n @NadineDorries Hmm. So the issue is you don’t actually know what the BBC does. As I say, maintaining transmitter masts for Freeview, educational resources every school and college uses, making programming for the disabled community…those things don’t matter?
