fishinthedark (@fishinthedark1) reported from Hammersmith, England@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.

david sinfield #pssc (@omotforest) reported from West Molesey, EnglandTo 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.
-
Nik Rahmel (@niklasRen) reported from Wandsworth, England@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.

Lee 'Budgie' Barnett (@budgie) reported from Richmond, England@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.
-
DarkBeige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, EnglandNow I have the truly truly shit @EE freeview package (literally the worst selection of channels on earth but boy is it cheap broadband) I only watch the main 5 channels or SVOD. W, Dave, ITV2 etc are dead to me
-
Nessy 😷 (@nessymon) reported from London, England@MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.
-

-
Andy Smith (@RegenerateAndy) reported from Wandsworth, EnglandChannel ‘Pick’ on freeview. Never heard of it before but grateful for it tonight #chelsea
-
Eran Edry (@EranE1980) reported from Camden Town, England@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
-
Dark_Beige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England@Disco_Squirrel I’ve got the shitty EE freeview box and it’s one of the apps on there, but never used
-
Tom Jordan (@Tommy_M_E_J) reported from Hammersmith, England@njvns That’s so shit. It’s literally called freeview and yet it’s not free
-
tommy harper (@daguvernor) reported from Wandsworth, England@virginmedia once again trying to contact virgin media is a no go a proper waste of time contract has run out trying to cancel they have put the money up to £60 a month for basically 2 freeview boxes I have cancelled my direct debit which is due on the 7 april what a scam😡
-
Scarebear (@Scare158Steve) reported from Wandsworth, England@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

Jens Fallesen (@JensFallesen) reported from Hounslow, England@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.

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Piers button (@ButtonPiers) reported@kategarraway @skytv Sometimes it is a simple reset that can fix it, turn off your Sky Box and broadband router, turn the router back on and wait for it to fully initialise, then turn on the Sky Box You should still be able to watch freeview if you plug the outside ariel directly into the TV.
-
Tony Moretta (@TonyMoretta) reported@Deano230 @AlStewartOBE It could have developed with FTA broadcasters as Freeview later did. Other problem is it never recovered financially from Sky switching to free box offer.
-
AlisonB (@ABalharry62) reportedJeezo it's #ChristmasEve and not one good film on freeview channels aye appears bloody @skytv have hoovered up the rights to #Elf, aye the world is utter shite, aye I'll never be paying dosh to @skytv. Eh I've never bought a lottery ticket either, what a bloody racket that is 😡
-
Jerry C Alderson (@jerryalderson) reported@back_the_BBC If the TV licence were to be decriminalised the only way to shore up BBC income would be some form of subscription even if only top up. A key problem, for government is that the #Freeview platform is, er, free, with the technology not currently supporting encryption for payments
-
Lesley Helen Mayne (@MayneLesley) reported@evilscootus I love sbs on demand and as I access directly through my smart TV I don't have any problems. I find that if I go through freeview it takes ages and searches are almost impossible.
-
Vampire du bonheur (@AllFineSunshine) reported@MiniShane @JimSterling I mean, we had the same here with analogue. There were still channels that made their money from ad-revenue like ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5, and they're still accessible on Freeview since the switch to digital. I just don't see an issue in funding a public institution
-
Alan 🐝 (@alan0669) reported@Stephensav I don't think there's bandwidth in the freeview signal to carry 4k HDR, where I live I even struggle to get HD on freeview
-
Neale (@NealeManning) reportedAbsolutely terrible experience with @skytv tonight, any danger of @SkyHelpTeam actually helping? A 'Call you back in 15 mins to check its worked' took 3 hours, in which it obviously hadn't worked - 👍 happy isolation over Xmas. Viva Freeview! 🎉
-
Andrew Garratt M0NRD 📻 (@nerdsville) reported@NigelBig @back_the_BBC @bbcemt weather forecast never mentioned the 'East' so assume a **** up somewhere - this just on satellite or affecting freeview too?
-
Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported@RyanDrinkwater2 If the TV upstairs is receiving Freeview OK and is running off the same aerial, then it is likely the cabling/connections or splitter. Try a different coaxial cable, or try tuning in the working TV in on this room to see if the issue persists. Thanks.
