  • 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.

  • Robbo72uk Andy Roberts (@Robbo72uk) reported from Southport, England

    Virgin tv and broadband gone down yet again. Resorting to Freeview right now. The picture quality is actually much better than Virgin...AND no glitches and constant picture breakup!!

  • richard__webb Richard Webb (@richard__webb) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    @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

  • annmurphy_wigan Ann Murphy (@annmurphy_wigan) reported from Wigan, England

    @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...😳

  • johnworthy27 john worthington (@johnworthy27) reported from Preston, England

    @chloesammike @andywigmore @KayBurley Don't worry you can still get Sky news on channel 132 on your Freeview box. Thick ****.....

    I don't have an ariel or freeview I rely on your piece of shit @virginmedia #VirginMedia

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • OmieAKA Omie (@OmieAKA) reported

    @BrixtonBobbyBob @mandapen Yes. Channel 4 or any of the other Freeview channels people never bother watching. Yes , it sucks that favourite shows were cancelled for the night but folk who say there was nothing else on TV are employing hyperbole.

  • jamespdrury James Drury (@jamespdrury) reported

    @hmd_db @TraceyRBurns @michaeljswalker Completely untrue, Freeview (the bare minimum TV service without internet or dish) carries far more than BBC channels and Channel 4. The inability to use ones TV is not the BBCs fault.

  • Sootyskye Sootyskye (@Sootyskye) reported

    Hi @itvstudios @channel5_tv @Channel4. What happened? Poor DVB signal yesterday then it stopped. Still no channels 3, 4 & 5 on freeview (ch26) today but HD is ok. LB of Havering isn’t the most difficult to broadcast to.

  • jonwensley Jon Wensley (@jonwensley) reported

    @peakajy @DPJHodges BBC1 only had a 6% drop in viewing figures on Friday night. Amazing, considering it was just a one subject news broadcast. There are loads of options on Freeview. There is Netflix & Amazon Prime and even 📚 instead for those who “never watch the BBC anyway” for just a few hours.

  • maisiethetortie Maisie the Tortie / Margaret- NHS stay home 💙 (@maisiethetortie) reported

    @yvonnemurphy53 Never had Sky just make do with Freeview and Netflix that’s an awful lot to be paying!

  • Farmo05 Caro JH 🇬🇧🇳🇴🇺🇸🇨🇦🇮🇱🇸🇪🇩🇪 (@Farmo05) reported

    @cornwell167 @gillstewart56 Totally agree not all agreed to wall to wall tributes but Freeview is free, not a paid for service.

  • Sukiweeks 🎧 𝚂𝚞𝚔𝚒🩰 (@Sukiweeks) reported

    @toryboypierce @BBC We don’t just have 4 channels anymore, with tv on demand and freeview....this shouldn’t even be a issue anymore. Just watch something else.

  • NNickcot Nick Cotterill (@NNickcot) reported

    @Sotlive No, on freeview there are hundreds of channels for people to pick. If they subscribe to a TV service, even more. It's not like people didn't have a choice to watch it or turn over.

  • wirvine56 William Irvine (@wirvine56) reported

    @janicecelticsmp @micheloola 1 of the apps ive got, you can download freeview channels. the catch is you have to log/sign in, thats b/c bbc is included. you cannot get all these freeview channels only b/c of the bbc. you should have a option to delete the bbc from the list.

  • ChrisJA15486090 Chris - Cymry & European! #FBPPR (@ChrisJA15486090) reported

    @SteelDalek1 And then close down BBC4 to stop you watching that instead! Have they forgotten most people have Freeview, Sky or Virgin to find other programmes on???
