@Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

@Claire_Pickard @sueashton3000 Many residents in Sunderland & along the Durham Coast also receive Freeview Channels from the Bilsdale transmitter. The fire is also likely to have knocked out about 30 relay stations, which "feed" on signals from Bilsdale. I wouldn't like to climb up the transmitter to fix it!

I've got a LG telly. Problem is that everytime I turn the telly back on, after it being off overnight, it comes on in Freeview mode. Freeview is the "Live TV" setting. If I change that setting to Freesat then it comes back on with whatever I was watching last. Why?

@LeadTestInclude We canned Virgin to go with Freeview plus Now Entertainment package. Still fairly cheap I guess. Just about enough programming that isn’t covered elsewhere. The NowTV box we have is rubbish. Awful interface (but it works - no channel numbers for freeview channels)

@furbabygirl Things are going to be so bad for me this winter that I am going to have to forsake my upgrade to a Crapple iPhone 15 pro plus and watch Freeview instead of HULU, paramount +, Netflix and SKY Sport. I don't think I will survive past Grimbletide!

@AscentAV Thanks! No rush at all. It doesn’t seem to occur agenda I’m using a streaming service - just the freeview channels

@LeafNetSco @cordbusters Hi Blake, Freeview and Freesat fall under the same Umbrella, however we operate as two entities as there is slight differences with equipment, signal delivery and channel location from Freeview to Freesat. Freeview currently do not offer Spotlight TV.

@LindaC29022195 Hi, Linda. I can't speak for every box but generally, you should be able to watch recordings on a box when there's no Freeview signal. Fraser

@MrAbelMagwitch A lot of University students also have access to "Box of Broadcasts" an online catchup service which can show tv programs from all the main freeview channels... they can stream BBC content on without needing a TV license.
