    My @SkyUK box has frozen in a state of #wtf, using on/off/on/off does **** all, tv now gone to freeview and im out of my depth. And my man is sound asleep unwell, bless him. #SilenceIsGolden

  • nickhancock741 Nick Hancock 🇪🇺 (@nickhancock741) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @BoostTorbay @AndrewBrazier1 Never used the first two options. Very much old school. None of the fancy pants Sky or Virgin Media either. Just plain old Freeview for me

    @rogermosey I fear those advocating a subscription model would be happy to see Freeview shut down 😢

  • dazartley Darren Artley (@dazartley) reported

    TV Licence: last time I checked, you couldn't watch TV without one (legally) and it was the only fee I paid for TV when I was younger. I had freeview, the fee may have funded the BBC, but it gave me access to so much more. Not bad value for me and I enjoy zero advert breaks.

    @SophieRose19x @sophielouisecc Might come as a surprise but ITV, C4 & C5 have managed fine with no public money for over 60,40&25 years. All free, never mind other channels on freeview, you know they use this thing called advertising, which if the BBC is as popular as they make out will have plenty of offers

    @LDNCalling The BBC maintains the Freeview network, they broadcast all over the world and their programming caters to all tastes. State Broadcasting have a mandate to provide service for free. The licence fee is only a part of the funding the BBC receives.

    @Bob_Bobson66 you using Xplore? i just tried Kodi APK and that wont install either. So I suspect its more an issue with not installing than the freeview apk

    @Ojosblue Hi, I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Freeview reception. So we can look into this for you, can you please provide your postcode and house name or number? Thanks, Dylan

  • PhilJam50063624 Phil James (@PhilJam50063624) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice we have three Freeview devices and each of them keep freezing for a couple of seconds. How do I fix this? I’ve tried retuning each of them but the issue is still there. I live in South Wales

    @DaveOufc They could do it like Freeview - core channels are free, then you can choose to pay for add-ons. All this tech exists, they've just never had to consider it before

  • pedroqnaranja PedroQNaranja (@pedroqnaranja) reported

    @mrjamesob @NadineDorries Not to mention the upkeep and maintenance of the entire freeview transmitter network, which is also paid for by the licence fee.

  • jonwensley Jon Wensley (@jonwensley) reported

    How would you, technically, make a TV service through an aerial work as a subscription service? Would you make people pay for a Sky/Virgin box to enable them to receive a BBC subscription service? What about the 10 million Freeview users and 1.5m people without internet access?
