    @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.

    @jcalvarez2 @freesat_tv My parents invested in a 2TB freeview box. Not only was they dky q LNB not compatible and required a replacement at £100, but the box was incredibly slow and kept freezing. They just use apps on their smart tv now

  • ihatemogs Micheál O'Fiach (@ihatemogs) reported

    @crusaders1898 @andrewhdonohoe @Saraita101 No because it's called Saorview here, uses slightly different technology and doesn't carry BBC channels, only RTÉ and a few other domestic channels. Freeview, the UK system, is available in border areas where the signal leaks over the border, impossible to change.

    @BagladyM Hi, Maureen. Sorry to hear that you're having problems receiving Freeview. Can you DM us your postcode along with the house number or name so we can check coverage in your area and advise from there?

  • EE EE (@EE) reported

    @liampdwyer Thanks for getting back to us, Liam. This service can be accessed on freeview on channel 236, or if you're watching on the app. If it's hardly working, it'll be best to reset your TV box, and possibly your broadband.

  • MixedSpur Andrew (@MixedSpur) reported

    Awful picture for this U21 match. Like watching Freeview on a smart tv.

  • formerhero_ former hero ~ (@formerhero_) reported

  • Dr_Jon John Michael Leslie (@Dr_Jon) reported

    Last Night I watched The Simpsons Movie, which I've never seen before but had recorded on my (newer of 2!) Freeview PVR in Jan 2013 (as I worked out from the Ads). Those Ads were actually the most interesting part - apparently the iPhone 5 has a whizzy new Do-Not-Disturb feature!

  • OooAuto Gita Renik (@OooAuto) reported

    @itvcorrie disappointed that I'll never be able to catch up at the weekend... OAP with freeview not considered worthy 🥴

  • HelenParkins Helen Parkins (@HelenParkins) reported

    @Robin_Askwith Enjoy your break from filming, Robin. I was having a bad day until I saw that "Confessions From A Holiday Camp " is on tv here in the UK this evening- 23.20 hrs on Talking Pictures, Freeview 82.
