  • 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.

    @rlwjones @Nick_Metcalfe @MarkyBunny They made one champions League game per round free to air..usually the crap games though..they used to have a channel on Freeview..

    @JoGoldsmithE @charliclement_ Think for GBBO on the All 4 streaming platform time to come to be able to get it on Sky, Freesat, Freeview and stuff like that which is terrible

  • liamsinnott92 Liam Sinnott (@liamsinnott92) reported

    @S4C @Geraint2019 Hi, I've been having exactly the same issue, watching it on freeview as well.

  • Geraint2019 Geraint (@Geraint2019) reported

    @S4C On TV, Freeview. must be something with my television then. Diolch for your help.

  • tormid1951 norman kebell (@tormid1951) reported

    @williamjohnmcl3 I only realised it was on Freeview. Still never nor will ever watch it #ScottishIndependence6

  • SianJasper Sian Jasper (@SianJasper) reported

    @LibbyKerensky I find Freeview boring quite a lot of the time, I can flick through channels without finding much of interest. I don't use my Dusney+ streaming service as much as I thought though. (Probably cos I cant get it to work on my ancient TV)

  • VelvetyMole VelvetyMole🌻🌱 (@VelvetyMole) reported

    @Flashmaggie @rascallycake I watched some of it. I liked a show that took the piss out of wokism. Was a bit put off after reading about Andrew Neil's 'ordeal' at their hands. Also, it's so far up the freeview schedule, I never get beyond channel 81 i.e. @TalkingPicsTV - nothing beyond that worth watching!

  • JustineClaire65 Justine Carroll 🇬🇧 (@JustineClaire65) reported

    @Murphofrompres1 @GBNEWS I see. I haven't changed the way I watch @GBNews though. We have aerial issues and don't get good reception on freeview. I may try again now though as that was at the start.

  • grahamm30392424 graham montgomery (@grahamm30392424) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam @praburamswamy So does this tv have built in Freeview digital via RF so you can watch it if you cancel subscription

  • smogski74 Phil Parkes (@smogski74) reported

    No tv signal... this bilsdale transmitter has alot to answer for..where can I get the freeview

  • Maggie_Bowler Maggie Bowler (@Maggie_Bowler) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice I was advised by a representative on your help line that I would have all channels by 6pm yesterday. I’m missing all BBC channels and the remaining channels are intermittent if at all. I’ve sent DM to Freeview.
