  • AndyMcK1982 Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @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.

  • Bluebird0309 CllrJillHoulbrook (@Bluebird0309) reported from Chester, England

    I have 100 freeview channels on my tv. Tonight they are all showing utter crap.

  • Aprilhouse23 Chris Morgan (@Aprilhouse23) reported from Higher Kinnerton, Wales

    @EinCymru Yep it is true - can't get it on any Freeview service (might with Sky) - so annoying - have choice of North West or West Mids.

    @danidotx Worth trying Al Jazeera on Freeview channel 235 for a different perspective on international issues.

  • Redtagheur Eddie (@Redtagheur) reported

    Virgin Media prices going up again, MUCH MORE than the rate of inflation (again). For the same old **** that no-one watches. I'm leaving. Freeview will do now.

  • MissLionHeart J🇬🇧🇳🇬🦁❤ (@MissLionHeart) reported

    Why is the TV adaptation of Magpie Murders on BritBox? That is absolute horse ****! I want it on Freeview! #ThisMorning

  • Artemisapphire Tansy Kelly Robson (@Artemisapphire) reported

    @WalkingRichard Trying to get my GenX friend to watch more TV. There is LOADS on Freeview channels you cannot get streaming. Streaming catalogues are horrifically narrow And watching something on a whim when you come across it also expands your exposure to stuff you'd never select on a streamer

  • Huriye Huriye (@Huriye) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV @grannypatt It's not you, it's living in certain areas watching Freeview is a lottery. With me it's also the BBC channels that come up no signal due to certain atmospheric conditions? Who knows? Last year a TV engineer came & adjusted the communal aerial on the roof. Briefly helped now not😔

  • Old_Smudger Martyn (@Old_Smudger) reported

    @Richard_K_P @OldBlueyes @virginmedia That’s unfair quoting facts people 😜 I had the TV outage. It was during the day and could easily use Freeview until it came back. WiFi was fine. Since VM/O2 merger I’ve had my mobile data doubled and broadband increased to 350 from 200 - for free! Roaming announcement also 👍👍

  • botvolution Botvolution (@botvolution) reported

    Because I don't have sky or Netflix or prime or any of that **** I'm always about 5 years behind hype TV shows and then only the ones that eventually turn up on Freeview. It's quite restful in a way, I don't get drawn into endless twitter ingroup references. Lovely.

  • LGUK LG UK (@LGUK) reported

    @CallMeThoms @All4 Hi Tom, unfortunately LG and Digital UK were unable to reach an agreement for a Freeview Play device in time for the rollout of LG’s 2020 TV range, and this is why our 2020 models don't support the All4 app. (1/3)

  • Montrealbloke Richard - Entrepreneur & progressive 🇨🇦 🇵🇸 (@Montrealbloke) reported

    @virginmedia hi. I've got a friend who has your service, TV, broadband & phone. If you put her price up, she will drop the TV and keep broadband. Use Freeview, channels on Amazon, Discovery + & Disney. Plus Now TV. Total still cheaper than you.

  • OldBlueyes ItsMePaullol (@OldBlueyes) reported

    @Old_Smudger @Richard_K_P @virginmedia Your one ?? Across the country 🙈🙈 the service is sht...how can people use Freeview if they haven't got it..
