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

@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.

@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.

@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

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.

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

@FreeviewAdvice I’ve been experiencing a lot of poor quality imaging/interruptions of my freeview in my area, Chingford, London. Also I’ve been able to DM you and I’m not sure why the system is not enabling it. It doesn’t bring up your company when I try

@DrRacheal @FreeviewTV When I had problems with Freeview, I found their helpline - when I eventually managed to get through to someone - very helpful. Took me step-by-step through the stuff I could check and solved it for me.

@LushJEL I'm not much of a TV person as I don't really like it, but I found channel 83 on Freeview TV which is NOW The 80s, so some nights I just have it on in the background, lots of crap but also some good old ones 👍

@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.

@MattWWoolwich Haha, my TV only has apps and not conventional channels other than some bizarre Samsung random channels, never really saw the point of getting Sky or freeview as it’s just mainly Netflix these days!

Ministers are now using slow ultrafibre broadband rollout as reason to keep the licence fee until 2038! Rubbish! Without the live TV tax people could watch freeview. Meanwhile, it's on the rest of us to switch to on-demand and #DefundTheBBC by legally cancelling our TV licences.

@a516digital As to freeview, better off talking to harry hill, they know absolute nothing about the problem i had. 4 times ive had this looked at now, because freeview passed my details on.

... he was holding an old 4" battery b+w TV set with one channel and virtually unwatchable. He had lived that way for years.. Life hadn't been kind. It bugged me so I got online and ordered a sat dish and Freeview box that he could connect to a broken portable CD player he had...

@Mikalisyid My contract with Sky ended last month & I never renewed. 17 years a customer & I finally had enough. We have Amazon Prime, Netflix, Freeview & so far we’ve literally not noticed it gone as a family. I had the full Sky Q package for £65 so did have a good deal but glad it’s gone.

@AppSecBloke I was complaining at Virgin for putting the Bill up to £57/month when the TV service is the same as Freeview&Freesat and I don't need a home phone. Only with them for Internet until I find a different offer. People I work with pay hundreds a month for services you mention.

@TVgroup_UK Hi, yesterday I had a KG55K2020UK delivered. After spending a long time tuning/setting it up, I have some channels showing as ‘data only’. Eg. Ch271 - Channelbox. Why am I unable to use this basic Freeview service on a brand new tv? (Aerial & Internet both connected).
