  @FreeviewAdvice Well, after waiting 2 weeks for a Freeview engineer we are told we need a new aerial. Also, they can’t help us because we have Sky! So they change Winter Hill and now we have to pay. Why didn’t they say this 3 weeks ago...😳

  @GBNEWS i was so looking forward to it. But… on freeview the picture quality is really poor, sound is out of sync, and just feels like the sets are dark and badly lit. Took my focus away from listening to whats being projected. #GBNews

  Matt Quinn - The Caledonian Television Company. (@Matt_Q_OnX) reported 6 minutes ago

  @BENEFITS_NEWS Well for a start the Freeview service is guaranteed until at least 2034 and likely to be phased out over a period of time; unlikely before about 2040. 'Freely' is currently being touted as the IPTV replacement - From about £70 for a set-top box; this price will drop dramatically.

  @EmmerdaleInside There is no excuse not to put football or any other sport on ITV 3 or 4 as everyone who watches TV will have digital TV ( Freeview) as the analog signal got turned off years ago and them channels are free to all ( as long as they pay the TV Tax)

  @PopeyeFreeview Freeview will close bit later then sky due to contacts ending on differnt dates The main share holder has stage four cancer and that’s the main reason for it closing down

  @BENEFITS_NEWS I don't understand what switching off Freeview does, except I assume forces people to pay for everything? We have an Amazon Fredrick thing but the channels are apps. It's crap half the TV channels you can't even get on it. Freeview is better.

  BENEFITS NEWS (@BENEFITS_NEWS) reported 20 minutes ago

  The problems with planning to switch Freeview off: Many people still watch Freeview. Internet drops out or you get the 'circle of doom' and freezing BBC iPlayer when trying to watch something! Not everyone has or wants internet / wifi / data.

  Reckon we had better offerings on TV last week in our lodge ( caravan ) with Freeview than we do back home with virgin media. TV sucks.

  @Jcaird2 It’s basically freeview albeit a bit cut down via the internet. We have been fine without aerial anyway and missed nothing we like but it will be nice to flick through stuff again and stumbling on something to watch.

  @BBCMaryam I have soap on my feet after the below, sorry to rant, but it is in you and your great cultural contribution’s favour. The BBC is welcomed into our homes like family. ✅ Fraud is being committed by those taking the moving pictures content (and perhaps again soon, for radio usage), and the modern trend seems to be the plinth upon which people excuse themselves. ❌ I rather think, given the will to sell off the radio spectrum, that the licence levy belongs as a fiver per month on fixed and mobile internet devices, including roaming connectivity by arrivals as the product of inbound tourism. (Estimate this would bring in £6bn, which could fund BBC as-was and opt-in Internet experience safety by a low level path extension through a Bitesize style category block service and bureaucracy.) But back to the family analogy, the BBC is the auntie who visits us in our homes, and yet we never tire of her, and we are never relived when she nods off for the night by the hearth. The govt before this one knee-capped the fundamentals, and all that effort of retailers recording home addresses when receiver-capable equipment was bought. The elephant in the room being that a subscription service would require encryption, and next to nothing on FreeView or FreeSat considers that, apart from adult channels with hacks to the way the digital services are scraped from the multiplexes. MP Ms Nandy said she had ideas to ensure the BBC future and that tax eroding parties would never be able to ruin our most dignified and amazing project. I write this to you, Maryam, just to reassure a heart-on-sleeve, articulate and forward looking individual like yourself and your husband, that there are people who know exactly how empty the experience of media absorption becomes if auntie goes into a home, and all we are left with is her amazing life in diary form. Trust in the silent majority, and hope these whizzes in suits and sparkling white trainers do not blessed-prannick it all up! (Where did the word ‘prannick’ ever go, I guess it fell out with ‘Square’ and ‘Yar’?) But, the Project is bigger than any one, which CH4 and CH5 have partly proven for how the core offering is welcomed as long as there is occasional freshness from that ole 80s BBC Two style subversion and ability to laugh at institutions. Somebody smarter than me will steer a course. Perhaps like in Covid when the smart phones said how many of us were going about on the roads with application of new rules, etc. Perhaps the Barb data and corroboration with declarations of the licence not applying could be partnered with Apple and Alphabet-Google-Android to quantify when BBC is being absorbed, and use that data to get the govt if the day to rank the nation as honest or lying bar-stewards. And if the verdict is a lie, enforce something to do with how we stream, as my suggestion of a fiver per month for fixed and mobile could serve. Fundamentally, we cannot lose you guys, especially in consideration for how you would be on twice to four times your compensation package in commercial TV world. Plus,I think it is also still true that Austria, Switzerlandvand Germany charge more for their live TV access licence, have a narrower offer and take advertising too. And, whilst FreeView, FreeSat is shared with commercial TV today, but we enjoy less frequent and shorter ad breaks than is customary in North America, we can surely expect the deathknell of tolerable commercial TV to end when their per-station platform costs disappear when harm is delivering the final blow to BBC or serious parts thereof. BBC News, in all guises of plurality should be expanding to handle the billionaire outcrop creeping in, not actively trimming ****** limbs off. Or am I wrong? Hugs to best broadcaster to many tens of millions here and half-billions beyond. #Reliability #MidwayBias #Leader

  @TalkTV @cjsnowdon @iancollinsuk I don’t necessarily believe a sub model would work, but as an initial step they should require subscription-based logins at least for their TV and web-based services (radio maybe less practical). Maybe just have SD broadcasts on Freeview and require streaming for HD due to practicalities (Sky shouldn’t be an issue). This way those who don’t pay (for a license) will find it hard to view, and it would also cut off more overseas users who view without paying.
