    @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.

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

  • robertw1690 🇬🇧🇬🇧 🗣 Robbie Wilson 🗣 🇬🇧🇬🇧 (@robertw1690) reported

    @GBNEWS FFS... GB News will air on channel 236 for Freeview and YouView viewers, station 216 on Freesat, as well as being broadcast across Sky, Virgin Media and through a dedicated on-demand streaming service.

  • AvifaunaLux AvifaunaLux Shadow Banned for telling the truth!🌸 (@AvifaunaLux) reported

    @NOW Disappointing that this is not being shown on a regular terrestrial Freeview "network" channel, being that Friends was a network show available to all, and not premium/subscription.

  • TalkingPicsTV Talking Pictures TV (@TalkingPicsTV) reported

    Hi folks seems to be a problem with our channel on satellite ! Fine on Freeview , trying to fix!

  • _Monty200_ Monty200💚☮🦆🌍✨ (@_Monty200_) reported

    @persiarainn I think I heard of that too which is really abusive and horrible to do, especially towards a child actor. I remember Pop too (but we didn't even have that on freeview and was introduced to that when my sibling got sky freesat upstairs) and got into that channel before (1)

  • JEFFREY03296741 JEFFREY PHILLIPS (@JEFFREY03296741) reported from Brentford, England

    @TalkingPicsTV Hello. Watching at about 4.35 pm on Monday 24th the Sky TV picture was completely lost from your channel and went off air. All other channels were fine. Also okay on Freeview but I missed the end of the film. At 4.48 pm it is still without a, signal. What's up?

  • terryphi Terry Phillips (@terryphi) reported

    @GBNews Bad news: I hear that those of us in rural areas who receive our Freeview signal from relay transmitters will not be able to view GBNews.

  • markydeedrop 🅜🅐🅡🅚 (@markydeedrop) reported

    @CupolaP @JanKay_ @GBNEWS No Freeview HD signal mentioned at the moment.

  • Philipbutcher1 Philip butcher (@Philipbutcher1) reported from Reading, England

    @GBNEWS Is anybody else having signal issues on Freeview channel 236? The signal is weaker than all the other news channels.

  • BarnsH Barn (@BarnsH) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice You see @GBNEWS it’s a post code lottery with Freeview , whose shareholders are BBC and ITV. The divide in service is appalling years since digital switchover and they don’t care to improve. Make your own app please!

  • leftyBrighton Lefty from Brighton (@leftyBrighton) reported from Hove, England

    @BBCNews I for one won't be retuning my Freeview for this crap.
