    @ExmoorOn Never thought to ask to be honest. Luckily I can get Radio Northampton on Freeview so at least I can listen in.

    @1doublehandful @RacingTV Thought it went off FREEVIEW last year Sent me a @amazon firestick which is nothing but trouble

    @333peterobinson I've had nothing but problems viewing @RacingTV since they made me have @amazon Firestick due to no longer available on freeview

  • CraigTvBug 🄼🅁🄱🅄🄶 (@CraigTvBug) reported from Queniborough, England

    @bbcemt @BBCOne When will this be sorted? I understand it’s expensive on satellite. But I watch on Freeview so already get a regionally transmitted HD service, you just need to give me the correct video!? Even if local the content is upscaled.. #bbc #hd

  • JustMark33 The World According To Mark (@JustMark33) reported

    @steventgray @GaryLineker The examples your using are poor…ITV and C4 are freeview channels and don’t cost you a penny to watch so in what way do you have to pay for that?

  • philthiselton Phil T. (@philthiselton) reported

    "Making the BBC a paid-for subscription service similar to Netflix is difficult due to the widespread popularity of broadcast radio and Freeview television services, which cannot be put behind a paywall." Er, they absolutely can and I hope they are!

  • holdfast holdfast (@holdfast) reported

    @ChrisJA15486090 @mikegalsworthy @girlyswotspider I have no idea how good/bad GB News is. I have no idea how to see it. It does not appear on Freeview, there is no app for it on my LG TV and I've never got around to installing the app on the phone.

  • PCarmichaelVO Paul Carmichael (@PCarmichaelVO) reported

    @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?

  • Insurance_Rich Richard Scott (@Insurance_Rich) reported

    @MrTrevMcCarthy @DaveHogg2 @LeeJBBC I don't need the BBC if I break my leg. We generally all go to school - some pay twice if they go private. Freeview exists. How on Earth can you comment about an affordable service - how many other countries force payment to turn on your TV?

  • Ems1965 Emma (@Ems1965) reported

    @Ian_gm_F @bbcpress You conveniently forgot to mention the radio stations, world service, website with free access to a whole range of educational resources for children, funding and upkeep of freeview infrastructure

  • HelloPalendrome Hannah Jones Design (@HelloPalendrome) reported

    @rach0907 @LlamaBusiness Virgin's dreadful for price hikes alongside declining service. Scrapped it all when we moved, can get everything we want on Freeview/Prime/Netflix/iPlayer. Then got a Humax box so we can record stuff if we want to. EE's internet is brilliant for the price too

  • chrisbardell Chris Bardell (@chrisbardell) reported

    @Turnip_Of_Doom @JoshHarris91 @davidschneider Yep, ITV/C4/C5 will never be able to pay for the entire running cost of Freeview. So it’ll close and they’ll go subscription-only.

  • JoshHarris91 Josh Harris (@JoshHarris91) reported

    @chrisbardell @davidschneider If you use a subscription service ie Sky/Virgin then the licence fee should be optional until you want BBC added to your plan (then you pay the fee). If you watch freeview then you pay the licence fee as it’s funding the service you use. Just give people the choice.

  • MikeAyriss Mike Ayriss (@MikeAyriss) reported

    @PCarmichaelVO @PumaBare A review of funding could, for example look at maintaining Freeview network by all broadcasters that use it paying a fee. Incidentally, how much should the BBC be providing? It's channels have proliferated. Personally, I don't mind the licence fee but I'd support a full review.
