@FreeviewAdvice Well, after waiting 2 weeks for a Freeview engineer we are told we need a new aerial. Also, they can’t help us because we have Sky! So they change Winter Hill and now we have to pay. Why didn’t they say this 3 weeks ago...😳

@BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

@jaxlfc_jj @YaTerrynorris70 It’s not restricted to the BBC. If you watch or record live TV on any channel - either through your TV or through a website - then you need a TV licence. This applies whether you receive Freesat, Freeview or a pay-TV service in your home, & whether or not you watch BBC channels.

@JennALT_01angel Didn’t really used to watch Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! as an infant, since we had no cable. I was just a modern Freeview guy. But, we got our first cable company in 2010, Sky. It was amazing but the price was unbelievable. But, WHO GIVES A ****???

@Sir_Woofingtons If you want to pay for it, shouldn't there be a choice enabling you to do so, but others not to do so? I don't see why they just don't go ad-funded on Freeview like every other network, with the option of subscription on iPlayer for ad-free catch-up and premium content.

@davidbicknell1 The little Englanders are about to have their own TV station in a few days time. Why aren't we all donating to someone such as @BylineTV (I am) ? Let's help get them on Freeview, even if it's only just a few hours per day initially

@BBCMonitoring @Ofcom @Freeview To whom can one report TV reception problems? Freeview and Ofcom direct to the BBC’s site, which requires 15 minute completion of details before announcing that ‘there was a problem - please try again’. Repeatedly. No TV reception for 3 days
