    People who have Freeview - is it just a one off cost for the box or subscription and can you record stuff? (Am trying to figure out tv options and can't get virgin and sky i think you need a dish. Aerial is crap here)

    @LBC It's the 21st century, if we are to be forced to pay the BBC so that we can watch 'Freeview' TV or any other tv for that matter, it should only be a news & education, perhaps local radio service. It should be at most half the cost of a weeks unemployment benefit (£40 ish?).

    @SueLamerton @susan1878 @BFinham So much on freeview that you won’t miss much 👍🏽 Iplayer fabulous. BBC Sounds brilliant too oh and World Service, the list goes on. I think bbc news crap but so what, there’s so much more to the BBC but as per, many have got distracted and turned against the entire broadcaster 🙄

    @Mark0Connell @Paul_Burgin Here's a suggestion that will make the @BBC more popular here: Sort out the Freeview signal so it's watchable in hot weather. Here in London the signal is terrible to non existent at the height of summer. Alternatively make the BBC issue refunds for services not delivered.

    @PCarmichaelVO @NadineDorries Because they'd still be state-owned and under a PSB. And those niche audiences will still get the ad-funded skeleton Freeview service, and ad-funded catch-up on iPlayer.

  • mergwaines al 🌻 hbd cait! (@mergwaines) reported

    @jedijackles This will also mean the loss of a bunch of freeview channels that you get access to by buying a tv license and getting freeview with it, because they can’t be privatised in the same way, so that would also be really bad for the arts and culture sector :(

    @GaryLineker BBC should be a choice.Cut down the waste & some of the ridicolous expense. Get a bit of sponsored advertising and I am sure those who wish to subscribe for the price of a licence fee will still do so. Should never force people to pay BBC to watch Freeview on a TV. This is 2022.

  • timalmond Tim Almond (@timalmond) reported

    @MattWWoolwich The BBC is already garbage, as is most of Freeview.

  • MrSaffron Andrew Ferguson OBE (@MrSaffron) reported

    @c_newman2010 @ruskin147 Be interested in knowing how that works since would not work over freeview and means set-top box or app on tv needed and this will impact the elderly and poor most. Knock on effect cost to run freeview for itv/c4 increases meaning likely to go subscription too

  • PCarmichaelVO Paul Carmichael (@PCarmichaelVO) reported

    @williambecket @NadineDorries So you’ll be happy for these pensioners to pay a separate broadcasting tax to maintain the Freeview transmitter network? That’s MILLIONS each year. None of the programming they recognise of course.

  • steviexdavis stevied (@steviexdavis) reported

    @GBNEWS Needs to be. It's a disgrace we pay a licence fee not to watch the BBC but to watch all the other Freeview Channels. I never watch the BBC, so cancelled licence, now I Can't watch all the other channels.
