    @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.

  • lynda_lyndatw Lynda Rolington (@lynda_lyndatw) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice It’s not just London. No Freeview signal whatsoever in Tonbridge- TN10

  • _Jack_Graham_ Time's Carcass💀☭🏺 (@_Jack_Graham_) reported

    @duckbunnyben I don't have cable or Freeview or Sky, or any TV coming in at all. So if I cancel my iPlayer account, I should be able to not pay?

  • KarlHar36699702 Karl Harrison (@KarlHar36699702) reported

    @virginmedia Still seeing issues with TV. Picture keeps flickering or freezing like a poor connection. No issues when watching the same channels via Freeview, so clearly not fully fixed. Rebooted Tivobox a couple of times, no change. When will things be back to normal?

  • johngunn2 johngunn (@johngunn2) reported

    @CStewart_CS May have had more to do with the National outage that Virgin suffered yesterday rather than just the train WiFi. A number of folk lost all broadband, tv and phone. We were lucky as it was just tv and could revert to freeview if needed. Back last night but not full service.

  • lexiblackbriar 𝕝𝕖𝕩𝕚 ❄️🧣 (@lexiblackbriar) reported

    YES i have avengers on DVD and on disney+ now but they be showing it on a random weekday at 3pm on a freeview channel? you bet i'm sitting my *** down and watching it

  • WimpleUk Mr Wimple (@WimpleUk) reported

    With Virgin TV being down for last few days I must say I know people need internet but why anyone pays for TV (Virgin or Sky) is beyond me. More than enough on Freeview (inc plenty of cr@p). If you want sport/films just subscribe to NOW TV and dip in and out as you want.

  • stevend43829773 Stevend43829773 (@stevend43829773) reported

    @UKBabeChannels hi ukbabechannels, earlier on this morning, I got through to speak to preeti_young on BS TV screen, she made me happy, she has known me for 11 years, tweet back to me ps why has the studio 66 TV service closed on Freeview

  • avsybaby Avreel🧢💋 (@avsybaby) reported

    @NicNic711 @VirginTV National outage. They had a power cut. Knocked out the tv and website. We’ve just got BBC1 and channel 4 🙄. However fortunately we do have Freeview so are watching that at the mo.

  • Carolly7 Carol without an e (@Carolly7) reported

    @Mlabus5 @Gaarrgh Not a Scooby. But Channel 4 had major issues after a recent fire? And I read the channel was not available in some areas or on Freeview since 2pm
