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

@FreeviewAdvice I’ve been experiencing a lot of poor quality imaging/interruptions of my freeview in my area, Chingford, London. Also I’ve been able to DM you and I’m not sure why the system is not enabling it. It doesn’t bring up your company when I try

@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.

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.

@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.

@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.

@suemonkman29 Freeview has >100 channels. Wireless radios still work. Paper books are still a thing. Popping in to see a disabled neighbour used to be the norm. I'm not convinced the underlying problem has anything to do with money.

So during the big Vodafone meltdown yesterday, we had no internet at all (not on my phone either, because it uses Vodafone's network as well). So I had to... watch Freeview with an aerial, to make sure the world did not come to an end. Raising a glass to Freeview today!

@stevencamlou @juneslater17 Agreed, use youtube, freeview, freely, nowTV, etc. Sounds like they need a reality check and debt counselling. No shame in getting help to maximise what you can have for the least money.

@yhdistyminen Hi, Roman historian here, uhm actually HBO was only for the Equites class, and Freeview was patchy (at best) in Germania and Hispania. I suggest you read a book and educate yourself. Glad I could help 👍

Dear Elon Musk, Will starlink help me get good reception for Freeview? I’m fed up of having to access widgets and apps to watch live TV. I just want a regular TVguide so I can make a decision in one place like I used to have with an aerial. Thank you, Michelle Speller

@KernalKornflake @GBNEWS I use Brave on my PC but I just switched to EE at home. The app was there yesterday now it’s gone. It’s also not being broadcast on their internet TV but all the other freeview ARQB channels are like Quest etc! And YouTube sucks with ads outside of Brave!

@FreeviewAdvice Since Sunday I've not been able to get these channels - 1,2,9,12,25,27,34,39,51,56. In this day and age I find it totally unacceptable that its still possible to get a bad signal for 1 day, never mind 3 days +. I can't afford cable or satellite tv, freeview is all I've got
