@leksi_p Correct. If you do not have Freeview, Sky or Virgin (or any other cable service), you should not need to pay if you never watch it.

@FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

@stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.

@PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

On the Freeview “REALLY” channel at 9pm, “Who Killed Jeffery Epstein?”. I’ve never seen it before, but I bet the answers not Jeffrey Epstein.

To be honest, when you've removed the dependency of other real time tv, i cant see many people chipping in. Many will be paying just to watch their subscription service or Freeview.

@DrRacheal @FreeviewTV When I had problems with Freeview, I found their helpline - when I eventually managed to get through to someone - very helpful. Took me step-by-step through the stuff I could check and solved it for me.

@Stephen_Neal Good shout! If we just take the Freeview/Freesat ones, we get to ten, excluding the National ones: 1) BBC One 2) BBC Two 3) BBC Four 4) CBBC 5) CBeebies 6) BBC News 7) BBC Parliament 8) Dave 9) Drama 10) Yesterday But they aren’t licence fee funded, so don’t help the argument.

@virginmedia I believe it's a V6 TiVo box. Output has always been quieter than the same channel on Freeview but trying to watch the film #Yesterday... uh.. yesterday.. was terrible. Had to set the TV to 90% to get a decent sound level.

@SarahJChadwick This would be under freeview, NOW APP does not have bbc 1 2 3 or 4 or ITV channels live unfortunately we never did, the APPS are free to download on our devices.

@NoSpinZone_ @QuidVeritas A reach in a week of just a million is incredibly bad for a channel on Freeview, satellite and cable. No wonder Paw Patrol IN WELSH gets an audience over five times their size!

@virginmedia Tried everything and had to watch the first half on a small TV that has freeview in our dining room! Literally rebooted several times and no joy. The internet is down as well and don't have good signal so having to connect via hotspot to tweet. Nightmare.

@henry_stleger @LGUK @techradar I’l confess U saw this excellent article, but feel it needs a wider audience. Now LG have fixed the issue for 2921 TVs there’s a danger they’ll forget about us (like Netcast). So please keep up the pressure on LG and Freeview to resolve this for 2030 LG TVs. Thanks!
