    @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.

    @nicholsonprop @DavidPoulden Then you and your GBeebie chums can freeload off the rest of us. Who do you thinks pays for the Freeview service GBeebies transmits on?

    @kronosarm @Steveonstradey @fesshole English regions HD need to be on Freeview, FreeSat and Sky. Plus backups. Plus switching at network junction points. Plus upgrading regional studios to HD (cameras, edit, play out). Massive expense for 28 mins at 6:30 and 3 x 6 min bulletins. That, or quality content?

    BT digital is shite. Every time you turn it on, the telly resets and has to boot up again. Sky never did this. Suffice to say, we’ll be getting rid and I honestly just think we should stick with Freeview and the free apps. Digital TV is redundant

    @carriewarrie1 @RuthieRehh @JackieSharpe1 if they enter your house and you have a tv that plays freeview channels your telly might be switched off you can tell them you never watch live channels they will still do you for it cause you have equipment

    I'd be surprised if a new weekly TV magazine launched. Although I guess it's possible, maybe one just providing listings for Freeview? Of course, not only would this depend on gaining readers, pricing would also be an issue.

    @Forces_TV What can you do if you have retuned your freeview and Forces TV does not show up on Channel 96. Has my wife used her mysterious mind powers to prevent the signal from entering our abode?

    @bbcpress @JackEDeakin @BBC The public has to pay for the TV licence just so we can watch freeview channels,£160.44 a year goes down the drain.

    I’ve tried to set up my mum’s new Freeview box and it’s not working. I suspect it’s me not the box. Everything online about it brushes over it in a way that suggests only the very stupid wouldn’t know how to do it.

    @FreeviewTV Hi George, can't find DM (direct email) on freeview website help & support. For my postcode said that there is works in area. Returned now but smart TV is still no and freeview box is OK.

    @virginmedia I got through eventually but now I have a new problem!! Loads of channels have disappeared. There should be no changes to my package. I’m effectively paying Virgin to supply me with Freeview! What’s going on?
