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.

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

@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.

@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

@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.

@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.

@jonnyt78 Not at all. Was supposed to be awful except from some certain sections of the media. Some of the games were of freeview over here as well, I didn’t have a clue

@bt_uk I know, but why would I pay you for Freeview Channels! Hard bundling TV with Broadband to get me to sign for 2 more years. BT broadband is poor & my area is just getting new providers with Fibre to the house. This feels like anticompetitive practice using your TV @CMAgovUK

@Grownmangrumble That's a conspiracy theory. I'm left-wing and support #DefundTheBBC movement. The BBC model of taxation is out-of-date, as there are multiple alternatives like Sky, Netflix, Amazon, YouTube, Freeview, BritBox etc. Let customers choose what they want to watch and pay for.

(@Gary1609) reported
@gemandmoll @Bbmorg Which is great for you. So maybe you should be paying through subscription allowing those of us who do not watch their services the right to watch other freeview channels without paying for a service we do not want.

@CarrieAHarper @thebarryhorns Don't even know where to find it! Never even searched. Is it on Freeview?

Freeview Advice
(@FreeviewAdvice) reported
@KnightonJ Hi Jake. I'd suggest speaking with the manufacturer. My TV at home (Hisense) has no problems and if it does usually unplugging it for 60 seconds does the trick. If no quick tricks make a lasting fix to Freeview Play, speak with the manufacturer of the TV. Thanks, Fin

@LeeHurstComic Depends what the source is. If it’s SD freeview it will probably look terrible. Some channels are more compressed than others. Watch the HD channels. Plug a Blu-ray or 4K Blu ray (or watch a 4K film on a streaming service) and it will look like the mut’s nuts.

OK Day 35 with no #Freeview has just got worse. Got no @bbc5live & no BBC radio on DAB either (obviously no FM with no transmitter. #Freeview need to start answering questions to MP's this is ****, can live with no TV, radio just about but *******, this is 3rd world crap

@OwenJones84 Never actually looked at this,Owen,though I am reasonably discerning to avoid nearly everything from non Freeview stations in particular those from Aus. billionaires. I find it difficult enough to pay for BBC license fee each year.

@a516digital Out of everyone I know only 1 had something other than sky freesat or freeview, he has virgin media, but is so reluctant to talk about it because he has had so many issues with it, he wants to smash it up.
