@leksi_p Correct. If you do not have Freeview, Sky or Virgin (or any other cable service), you should not need to pay if you never watch it.

Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

@tinytwink The poor shouldn't have anything they have to work for. Big screen TV - nope. Netflix - what's wrong with Freeview? Mobile phone - can't they walk to the phone box on the corner that was disconnected five years ago. They think if you're poor you should suffer or not be poor.

On the Freeview “REALLY” channel at 9pm, “Who Killed Jeffery Epstein?”. I’ve never seen it before, but I bet the answers not Jeffrey Epstein.

@PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?

To be honest, when you've removed the dependency of other real time tv, i cant see many people chipping in. Many will be paying just to watch their subscription service or Freeview.

@FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

@stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.

@Stephen_Neal Good shout! If we just take the Freeview/Freesat ones, we get to ten, excluding the National ones: 1) BBC One 2) BBC Two 3) BBC Four 4) CBBC 5) CBeebies 6) BBC News 7) BBC Parliament 8) Dave 9) Drama 10) Yesterday But they aren’t licence fee funded, so don’t help the argument.

@SkyHelpTeam I also don't have freeview, but I think the tv has freeview in it. Is it just as simple as taking the HDMI cable out the back of my current tv and into the back of my new one? Coz I can do that no problem. With tv off obviously

@ScarredForLife2 Bottom right ones scared the crap out of me. Up there with Davros. It was repeated last year, they showed a few Space1999s (I forget the freeview channel). But there was always some ****** in sick-bay who was mad/ perceived to be mad/ turned out to be a baddie they'd saved.

@Lauraleanne1982 @Ezzer_man @WilliamMcGinn11 **** that, it's ok for say Football or movies but not great for live TV. I'd dump our Sky and just buy a freeview or Freesat recordable box but the wife likes it. We literally only watch stuff on freeview these days.

@YarnallKate @itvanglia @GMB Hello, I’ve looked into this. If you are watching on the ‘ plus one’ service you’ll get Meridian, of if you are watching on HD Freeview, also defaults to Meridian. Hope this helps 🤞

@Stop_The_Panic @Icky_84 Hi, The best way to find out is it may have the Freeview logo on the back of the TV. Otherwise, you can google your make and model number of the TV or contact the manufacturer for further support. Thanks, Dev.

I’ve sent a third email to the building management about our lack of freeview signal. I have left out the part about where I am unable to watch Talking Pictures and CBS Drama and it’s pissing me off now.
