  • 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.

    @sophielouisecc I have never seen GBNews, mainly because we have no coverage here from it on Freeview Lite. But I have never spoken to anyone who has watched it?

  • MellyStark Melly Welly (@MellyStark) reported

  • Irr_Orbit Andrew S.🇪🇺💙#FBPE (@Irr_Orbit) reported

    Can anyone explain to me the point of #ITV4+1 on #Freeview? It never seems to broadcast. Just a waste of bandwidth. #ITV

  • pook1978 simon potter (@pook1978) reported

    @FreeviewTV freeview down all day BN12 area..any ideas when this will be fixed

  • storey966 Tynmar (@storey966) reported

    @Bert1897 @J0hn8ev @MikeKeegan_DM ******* you're stupid. If they stop the TV licence, how do you think they'll fund the BBC & the freeview platform? We'll just start paying for it through taxation.

  • DawsePaws dawse (@DawsePaws) reported

    12 years on I'm pretty stoked to complete my Breaking Bad universe trilogy viewing tonight with the Better Call Saul finale. Blows my mind to think how long it's all been. I still remember catching the first promo on Freeview 5USA and saying "well that looks fun" to Mrs D.

  • Katielainton princesskate (@Katielainton) reported

    @virginmedia trying to cancel my tv package down to just the free view Chanel’s and your rep that I just spoke to doesn’t know what freeview is? Can anyone help?

  • MolloyLaurence Laurence Molloy (@MolloyLaurence) reported

    Edinburgh tweeps: Has anyone been experiencing Freeview ITV & Ch4 issues since yesterday's rain shower? Our signal deteriorated the moment the heavens opened yesterday and it's still flaky today. I note no obvious issues on downdetector etc. (though issues were noted yesterday)

  • SteveMay_UK Steve May (@SteveMay_UK) reported

    Ho! Ho! Ho! Just heard that the GREAT! Movies Christmas channel is returning to Freeview beginning September 8 - because it's never too early to celebrate Xmas, right? Time to get the decos down from the loft!

    @WitherSDL Oh man, what rabbit hole have I gone down. She's a regular in The Sun (tabloid) as a "glamour model" I guess, and this is her 7th engagement and 8th fiance? They were together for 10 months. Just seems like some average British freeview media personality I suppose.
