    @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.

  • 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.

  • karlmcintyre Karl McIntyre (@karlmcintyre) reported from St Helens, England

    @drewhill79 @VodafoneUK @MattJConnor @StHKHIS Same here. BT got the 150 mb and it flies. Good support and I stream everything!! Don’t even have normal freeview.

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

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

    @WonPeople Nothing you can’t watch a repeat of on any other freeview channel. Never listen to any BBC radio either.

  • TheOnlyLinsay Cupid Stunt 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@TheOnlyLinsay) reported

    Wow... freeview is **** but in this case, beggars cannot be choosers

  • RonanCollins29 DjRonanC #RestoreTheSnyderVerse #ReleaseTheAyerCut (@RonanCollins29) reported

    @SAORVIEW Not many channels, it be great if you added music, more entertainment and movie channels to your service we are living in 2022 and the UK has over 85 Freeview and Ireland has 11 channels. What's the point of paying for a TV licence.

  • Ravenblade86 Paul Convery (@Ravenblade86) reported

    @_mels13 my parents are having the same problem with RTE 1 on Freeview

  • MaFt Em to the Ay to the Eff to the Tee (@MaFt) reported

    I have solved the BBC licensing "issue". Freeview and radio stays "free" and make any digital stuff (websites, iPlayer/catch-up etc) a subscription. I suspect there'll be enough people that rely on catch-up and iPlayer who would then subscribe / pay license.

  • mosiestearn Maureen Stearn (@mosiestearn) reported

    Watching FREEVIEW Drama channel last evening, Inspector Lynley. Used 2B a 2-hour slot. Last night it was still a 2-hour slot BUT with every 10 minutes of drama there were 5 minutes of adverts. Almost an hour's worth of drama cut out. Most of it made no sense at all.

  • russty_russ Russty_Russ #Retro (@russty_russ) reported

    @sgordon_the87 DIdn't realise the BBC News channel took such a high place on Freeview. I thought it was lower down in the "rankings"

  • SimplyMetric Kevin Hall 🇪🇺 (@SimplyMetric) reported

    @miffythegamer Basically a crap YouTube channel on Freeview. His Mam will be it’s one viewer.

  • Takethatjoe Gerald Smith 🤢 (@Takethatjoe) reported

    @Ange_9_ @darrengrimes_ So you think advertising is going to raise an extra £3.7 billion? The BBC share maintenance of freeview, freeview is the biggest digital platform and you casually say they’ll go subscription, not everyone has a fast reliable broadband service and you’re assuming millions

  • lofty2401 🌻 David 🌻 (@lofty2401) reported

    @DuncanLindsay @MrDavidEBrown @MetroUK An hours news??? Not necessary bearing in mind the BBC news is 24 hours as is Sky news, both on Freeview. I’m sorry but this is bad scheduling.
