Popeye (@PopeyeFreeview) reportedWherever you can watch Free TV. Isn't Freely free TV 🤔 When TLC was launched on Freely channel 17 it's not really Freely it's more Freeview. Anything that comes from an aerial is Freeview and not Freely. Misleading channel like Rewind TV say we are on Freely channel 141 how many viewers watch Rewind TV on Freely maybe 1%. Most Freely viewers don't access to an aerial. Freely is really good in Freeview lite areas because Freeview lite areas have hardly any channels and the signal is very poor when high pressure comes in and relay Transmitters have hardly any power. The range of relay Transmitters is about 5 miles and the main Transmitters range is about 45 miles. The main Transmitters kills most of the relay Transmitters in high pressure conditions this is when Freely comes into action with no interference from the weather.

Bella Donnelly (@BellaDonnelly) reported@BLAHBLAHBL53710 @ECOWARRIORSS u are missing the point, it is swapping from the current freeview to streaming services etc tv licence is a different issue

Nuttyphart (@Nuttypharty) reportedWhy is the government trying to get rid freeview now? The BBC, channel 4, all want the channels via streaming only. So they can clamp down on tv license via ip addresses, more like. There's a petition to block it. Google freeview petition and sign it!

𝟙𝟘𝟙𝟘𝟙𝟘 Lord Of the caravan @ Fircombe Hall™ (@Dean24148909) reportedhoovered all the crap out and replaced 2 of the 4 main fuses), put back together and plugged it in ... the digi card started to load all the "freeview" TV stuff, & ended up with some radio channels and the BBC channels = just dead chuffed

DON (@Levy_antics) reported@lyncey_gilbe @skytv I’m sorry for your loss. I don’t know what service you have, but ring them again and talk to someone different. My father in law had issues paying sky bill and they dropped tv down from £60/m to just tv essentials (freeview channels for Q) for £5/m til end of contract.
