    @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.

    @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?

  • 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).

  • PCarmichaelVO Paul Carmichael (@PCarmichaelVO) reported

    @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?

    @grumpybrains BBC lancs on Freeview never has our match on and not sure I have an actual radio anymore so usually just watch scores coming in on BBC. Need a big performance after last week 👊

    @FreeviewAdvice We suddenly lost our Freeview channels, we've tried rescanning but can only get 30ish channels. Can you help?

  • 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!

  • PCarmichaelVO Paul Carmichael (@PCarmichaelVO) reported

    @williambecket @NadineDorries Hi William. The most popular way for pensioners to receive TV is via Freeview. The licence fee pays to maintain the Freeview transmitter network. Presumably this “pay rise” for pensioners can then pay for this?

  • 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

    @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 😒
