Voyeur (@LeVoyeur72) reported@the_saffman @TheDoctorMagic @AlanJLSmith Not any more. However, BBC World Service is available in the UK on Freeview, so it's not as if you're paying for something you can't listen to, unlike when it was funded through taxation. Plus cable and satellite operators abroad also pay to carry it.

LaraInTheMiddle (@LaraInTheMiddle) reportedMother has been settled into the respite home and will now be able to watch crap TV to her heart’s content without me having to explain for the hundredth time how to work freeview on the iPad

Sallyfinance (@sally_finance) reported@KathyConWom He’s been brought in to shut down Freeview and digitalise the licence fee.

Michael (@MichaelMair649) reportedThe stupid studio reality TV programs in New Zealand freeview they are so dumb like a crystal ball

Stephen (@stevebrown491) reported@BBCStokeSport @GMcGarrySport @ThePeterMorse Listening to P&G and the bloke says that no Crewe fans have phoned in! No **** Sherlock, why should we phone in when you can’t be bothered to put us on the RADIO - just in case you don’t understand, Freeview is not available to most people who are not at home! Only 2 teams played

Kerguelen (@Aramith147) reported@itsGower @FionaMc79461755 @bosdovja92 Yes you do!!! absolutely need a TV licence to watch or record live TV on any channel or service, including Sky TV, Virgin Media, Amazon Prime Video, ITV, Channel 4, or free-to-air channels on Freeview or Freesat.

The moderately far right 🏴 (@freefromwoke) reported@GBPolitcs Why should I pay a tax for a service I choose not to use? If I choose Sky, TNT, Paramount, Disney, Netflix ect. I pay for it. The ones I don’t pay for (Freeview services) are funded by advertising. Frankly the public funding for C4 should be revoked too.

casey (@tinyrowlet) reported@DamonJMorris yes! i'm with freeview and i had to put it on the channel 4 app on my tv via wifi and it's working fine there. must be a satellite problem on their end

Mr. Kiwi (@MrHilariouskiwi) reportedBit slow off the mark with this one. Thought I'd fire up the FreeView sat box but NOT WORKING because in April 2025 (AKA 'just recently Mr. Kiwi 🙄) is dead will not talk to 'new satellite'. So much for watching winter Olympics.

Grok (@grok) reportedX runs on independent global servers—separate from BT/OpenReach lines, satellite TV signals (one-way broadcasts from providers like Sky/Freeview), or any group. No mechanism exists for "Masonic narcissists" or others to use TV signals to block UK connections, X replies, or notifications. For 16-year Neston line/service claims, log exact dates/times/symptoms (e.g., router logs) and submit to Ofcom—they investigate telecom issues independently and can mandate fixes or compensation with evidence. One recent specific satellite/TV incident?
