    @FreeviewAdvice is Freeview down in Halton ?

  • 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.

  • Toffeewolfie Philip whitehurst (@Toffeewolfie) reported from Liverpool, England

    @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..

  • Omz2468 Omz2468 (@Omz2468) reported

    @davidbicknell1 The little Englanders are about to have their own TV station in a few days time. Why aren't we all donating to someone such as @BylineTV (I am) ? Let's help get them on Freeview, even if it's only just a few hours per day initially

  • MildlyHotTakes Ben (@MildlyHotTakes) reported

    @stephenkb I will vote for whatever new party you start to campaign on this issue. Preferably one called "Change (the channel) UK" I'm literally going to spend 20 quid on a freeview box because of this failure of technology. And I will be absolutely indignant about it.

  • Itoldyerso John - Let’s get on with it! (@Itoldyerso) reported

    @Patricia344130 Live TV probably yes. Find lots of ‘old’ repeats, which never had time to watch, are now much more interesting. Thank goodness for Freeview.

  • Lnx_t Zooltie (@Lnx_t) reported

    @LGUK Will LG 2020 TV's be receiving Freeview Play? Bought mine only last October and it's awful I only have access to BBC iPlayer and ITV Hub.

  • askthedood KevyD (@askthedood) reported

    Will @HumaxUK @FreeviewTV record boxes (presume Aura is newest) ever have @netflix app support? Looking for a new Freeview Record box for my dad.

  • Nicky_Harrison_ 𝗘𝗸𝗹𝗲𝗸𝘁𝗶𝗸𝗶𝗡𝗶𝗸𝗶💁🏻‍♀️🇬🇧 (@Nicky_Harrison_) reported

    @JohnWal31582757 @GBNEWS Oh hang on, I've got some disappointing news. Are you with #Freeview, John?

  • DjSimonmatthews DJ Simon Matthews #MentalHealthMatters (@DjSimonmatthews) reported

    @bt_uk Can you please fix the problem that i cant watch freeview channels on the BTTV app @GooglePlay 🙏🏻

  • DBD365 Paul Day (@DBD365) reported

    @JohnyG29 Right, forget that, forget that. WHY, WHY ******** does there seem to be AN ENTIRE CHANNEL on Freeview called "Classic Who Wants To Be A Millionnaire"?

  • Peno_007 Paul P (@Peno_007) reported

    @dlhmarketing @GBNEWS Freeview 236, Sky HD 515, Virgin Media HD 626, YouView 236, Freesat HD 216, mobile, online & audio Happy to help.

  • just_call_me_DK Dreamkiller (@just_call_me_DK) reported

    @IanCornwell6 @GBNEWS I'm screwed. Don't have Sky or any other paid for service & only get limited freeview service due to our location. Looks like we won't be able to get @GBNEWS. To be honest though, I'm just glad it'll be there, hopefully challenging some of the ridiculous shite that's happening.
