    @MrCoolHandLuke @PairoMayniaq @Telegraph Much of the country can't and will never get Freeview or full fibre broadband. In future it will be the same with 4G and 5G and whatever comes next.

    Nooooo just lost our TV signal in the middle of @TheRepairShop Christmas programme. Freeview signal out across much of Cambs but until this minute we'd been ok. Thank heavens for iPlayer so we can see the rest later.

    @kennethtwist @PeterBoneUK Then don't pay if the BBC is a subscription service. There will be FREEview. The poorest in society would appreciate not be threatened with fines or prison for watching television.

    @KentHC_WX The @metoffice didn't even extend the Yellow Alert for Fog until earlier this morning. I don't think they expected it to reach this far South? Slowing clearing from Medway, here now, but expect it to return later at sunset. TV signal on Freeview was unwatchable last night!

    Not just freeview issues, but our internet is also flickering.

    @danidotx Worth trying Al Jazeera on Freeview channel 235 for a different perspective on international issues.

  • DanielNvB84 Daniel Nicholson (@DanielNvB84) reported

    @RmnMark @MartinSLewis Yes, Freeview on a Smart TV. Thought I'd miss being able to pause, rewind and record, but with catch-up and smart apps you just don't need it. Pay for Netflix for films etc but can obviously cancel that whenever I like.

    Is anyone else having problems with the BBC on freeview? Other freeview channels seem to be ok, and CBeebies has re-emerged a couple of times, but we’ve had ‘weak or no signal’ for three or four days. No errors listed on the transmitter page…

  • Gina_Moona Gina, Moona & Jet (@Gina_Moona) reported

    @Florenc00526929 We only have freeview but the TV transmitter burnt down Aug 21 and now the signal is very sketchy not due to be replaced until Aug 23 😒

  • LRackstraw Luke Rackstraw (@LRackstraw) reported

    @williambecket @NadineDorries The cheapest Sky package I can find is £26 (which includes the "tax"-payer funded freeview service). Letting the BBC go commercial would mean that pensioners would save £13 a month but they wouldn't get any TV for that. So in effect you'd be doubling the cost for pensioners!

  • EmmaStitt59 Emma Stitt (@EmmaStitt59) reported

    @HelloSanctuary no TV input on sky or Freeview. Contractor for this came this morning. Can't get into the AV equipment cupboard. Can't get through to sky. Utterly shambolic way to treat Tennant's. Who runs a business like this??

  • carmadchris Chris (@carmadchris) reported from Hazlemere, England

    @LlamaBusiness @skytv Bailed on them last year, never looked back Unless you live in the sports channels, look at what you get for your £, then see what would be free on freeview/freesat & what is on other services like Netflix
