    @Virgin how do I go about leaving Virgin because I'm paying roughly £63.50 a month for a phone that I never use only to ring you up when there's a problem.. most of my viewing is on Freeview now and I have Amazon HD fire stick and Netflix account

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

    @JuliaHB1 You fail to mention the BBC also contribute to both Broadband and Freeview. I suppose you never use them either ? All for 43p a day 👍

    @SLUG_MrIBlack and as public money went into it, the code was shared with ITV, Ch4, Ch5. It innovates with loads of tech which it shares. It has public services like language transmissions and there was a section to help people switch to Freeview. What the plan about removing its funding?

  • mac_critical Mac (@mac_critical) reported

    Today I learned Freeview is partially funded by the BBC. I’m sure Dorries has considered all the potential implications should that service end.

  • PabloBonzo Pablo's Vault of Horror (@PabloBonzo) reported

    The scariest thing about the BBC & Freeview trending is all the awful GBNews related tweets & clips in those topics. We need the BBC, without it or with whatever it becomes under Dorries poorly thought out "plan" we'll end up with more sensationalist tabloid nonsense like GBNEWS.

    @andrew_wauchope @guardian So you don't think disability programming is a vital service? What about the freeview network?

  • dougmcfarlane41 Douglas Mcfarlane (@dougmcfarlane41) reported

    @PCarmichaelVO @NadineDorries In Teesside August 10th 2021 we lost our only Freeview transmitter to a fire. 1 million homes lost its Freeview. Only last week have people got a patchy service back, just BBC some areas have still no signal. 4 months no FreeviewTv. Tell me BBC r doing a good job maintaining mast

  • brundellfilimou Mike Benjamin (@brundellfilimou) reported

    @talkRADIO The ignorance surrounding the model for the bbc is astounding. The biggest issue people have seems to be with bbc news. There is no news stations in the uk that are subscription only, even sky news is on freeview. In addition it is not technically possible for radio stations

  • JamesDeroest James DeRoest (@JamesDeroest) reported

    @kipthebee @georgegalloway @MoatsTV What's a person to do? You'll be down to 100 odd channels. Analogue tv finished in the UK 10 years ago, it's been Freeview since.

  • shaycorri Shay Corrigan (@shaycorri) reported

    @SpergenFlergen @bbcpress Doesn’t the license fee go towards maintaining the Freeview signal stream? So 5 of the things you mention there indirectly benefit from license fee payments as they couldn’t be broadcast without the digital signal.

    @MikeAubury @markdavyd @NadineDorries No they slipped that in so the poor pensioners would have to pay. Now they are telling pensioners you don't have to pay, just watch a blank screen as its scrambled on free providers which include commercial free to air providers. A sick move. Sell off Freeview band width.
