Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, EnglandOnly 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 😂

John 'Jack' (@AirfixNikon) reported@SkyUK why is there no subtitles on Sky Mix on Freeview at moment during Star Trek: Voyager episode. Your IT guys sleeping on the job or awake and trying to fix it? #startrekvoyager #skymix #Freeview

LostInFilms🎬 (@Lost_In_Films_) reported@our_ents_blog Me too, I miss Forces TV used to show Watching. I wish we could get Rewind, Great TV & Thats TV 3 here but our freeview reception is so bad we can only use Freesat.

Nikki Nisbet (@Nesquik1962) reported@BBCFOUR4 Showing what I assume is a repeat but I've not seen it. 7pm Freeview 9 #Squirrelonmyshoulder an orphaned grey. I'm guessing before the draconian rules came into place. When people were allowed to help the injured, old or orphaned regardless of criteria.

The moderately far right 🏴 (@freefromwoke) reported@GBPolitcs Why should I pay a tax for a service I choose not to use? If I choose Sky, TNT, Paramount, Disney, Netflix ect. I pay for it. The ones I don’t pay for (Freeview services) are funded by advertising. Frankly the public funding for C4 should be revoked too.

Alec Baldwin's safe place (@AlecBaldwin999) reported@johnthejack Thanks. I was hoping they'd go back to it, but I figured they realised the graph was crap, and got rid of it. I used to have a box that recorded stuff, as well as a Sky dish that I just used for the equivalent of Freeview in the end, but the dish cable went iffy & by then...

Philip Wattis (@flincauk) reported@RichardWellings Replace the BBC with a subscription based streaming service - not dissimilar to IPlayer, and they can use their Freeview channels to promote and advertise the subscription service.

Sallyfinance (@sally_finance) reported@KathyConWom He’s been brought in to shut down Freeview and digitalise the licence fee.

pete wright (@prwright55) reported@ArthurSteggles @craig100 @jdpoc Neither of which many people have, I don't myself as it happens. So people who only want to watch a few "freeview" channels will have to spend loads more money than they ever have before to watch the same old ****

Sam (@samazas) reported@rizzles066 @NotFarLeftAtAll Water and tv bills are the different things. This outdated laws about tv license are causing all those problems. Nowadays not many people still watch BBC or other freeview chanel. People browsing on the internet for news or watching YouTube…
