    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)

  • MaryJasper2 Mary Jasper (@MaryJasper2) reported from Penzance, England

    @GBNEWS I am subscribed to GB News on YouTube but can’t seem to get it live. Freeview 236 has no watchable signal this morning. Please can anyone advise?

  • LesMalpas Les Malpas (@LesMalpas) reported from Truro, England

    @PumaBare So you want private subscribers to maintain the Freeview network that they don’t use, provide educational resources whether they have kids or not, provide Welsh services if they aren’t Welsh, provide for Disability programming if they aren’t disabled? Why should they?

  • jonwensley Jon Wensley (@jonwensley) reported

    @Jamie_Harte71 @MatthewStadlen How, technically, would you make it a subscription service for those who do not have reasonable internet access and/or Sky/Virgjn/BT TV, the base service of all of which cost more than the TV licence. >10 million people in the U.K. have Freeview.

    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…

  • DeusFoxy Post Brexit Foxy 🦊 (@DeusFoxy) reported

    @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.

  • MediaBoyUK Media Boy UK (@MediaBoyUK) reported

    I only deal with news about Freeview and Virgin Media UK. (And the soon to launch Virgin Media IPTV Network).

  • SandraR76172345 Sandra Russell (@SandraR76172345) reported

    @virginmedia Still not working according to a service website I checked there are issues with tv reception in my area and may not be fixed until 17th, insulting really when I receive your letter telling me you are increasing your prices and has happened before so I’m now watching freeview

  • PCarmichaelVO Paul Carmichael (@PCarmichaelVO) reported

    @PumaBare How do the elderly access television when you’ve removed the licence fee which pays for maintenance of the Freeview transmitter network, the most popular (and cheapest) way for the elderly to watch TV?

  • 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

  • robinjuste Robin Juste Emery (@robinjuste) reported

    @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!

  • 85Aston Aston (@85Aston) reported

    @PCarmichaelVO Is the Freeview network the BBC as well? I thought that was Arqiva
