@bt_uk Thanks for the help. I spoke to freeview, tried a few things which didn't work but i contacted your TV help and after doing a few basic things somehow it appears to be working now! Very Strange. Tks

@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.

@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.

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

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.

@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.

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.

@SamsungUK bad enough I lost access to BBC HD freeview channels when I bought a Samsung TV, but now all BBC channels have gone? Is it a London transmitter issue or part of the continued fall out between Samsung and BBC? @BBCOne

@JaTeken Pity we don't get a rebate for the fact we can't pick up all Freeview channels (the mobile signal's rubbish as well) and there's no FTTP here.

So I've sent an email to #Freeview over to continuing no signal distribution in Teesside ie none for nearly 3 weeks as I asked for the contact details of the regulatory body to lodge a complaint, I did think of you asked they're obliged to supply it not ask you to email them wait

@Prof_Nostalgia To restore services. So far nearly 3 weeks on the majority of Teesside still has neither TV or Radio, if Freeview can't/won't invest in ageing infrastructure then it very much is there problem

@UpperGwladysBlu @ImmoralLogic That’s area specific, paramount doesn’t even show up on my freeview (I watch nxt U.K. through the network) so you’re again hitting the limit of only certain areas even have access Easiest solution is companies like @KCOMhome stop trying to run monopolies on cities internet conn
