  @BoostTorbay @AndrewBrazier1 Never used the first two options. Very much old school. None of the fancy pants Sky or Virgin Media either. Just plain old Freeview for me

  @TimFost2561 So if you cancel the license, you also can't access other freeview stuff, or am I completely off-base there?

  It looks like QVC shopping channel is in financial in trouble? It's QVC made life hard for Freeview from beginning for refusing having shopping channels in one place. If QVC goes bust Freeview will be celebrating and get back channel 16?

  Bit slow off the mark with this one. Thought I'd fire up the FreeView sat box but NOT WORKING because in April 2025 (AKA 'just recently Mr. Kiwi 🙄) is dead will not talk to 'new satellite'. So much for watching winter Olympics.

  @GBPolitcs Why should I pay a tax for a service I choose not to use? If I choose Sky, TNT, Paramount, Disney, Netflix ect. I pay for it. The ones I don’t pay for (Freeview services) are funded by advertising. Frankly the public funding for C4 should be revoked too.
