@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.

@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.

@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.

@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 👍

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.

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

Only 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 😂

@AnnalisaB Don't confine yourself to new crap Christmas films, Annalisa -check out 'Great Movies Christmas' at Channel 52 on Freeview, which usually starts its Christmas season in early November. There's enough Christmas dross on there, 24 hours a day, to last you two braindead lifetimes!😳

@TonyB2929 Hello Tony, Do you have a screenshot of the issue (or a video) so we can better understand what's going on? What model is your Samsung TV? Are you using Freeview or any other service to watch our content? Thanks!

@itvhubhelp ITV hub will not load on Freeview Play on my Panasonic tv or Humax pvr, is this just double bad luck? Not a smart move from itv as there must be many viewers like me. Will a different pvr play through my tv, if so which one.

@UKTVPlay we can't do series record and Idea what's happening? If you can let me know, it affects my mum more than me. But it doesn't work via my sky box, mum used freeview.

@Agrannywhosaid1 Fine by me. Currently the BBC's forced funding model relies on the false claim that "Freeview doesn't support encrypted subscription services".

@florestaqueen @RoundLike @danwootton Where was she well-known? Not in the UK, some may have heard of her, but she wasn't 'well-known'. I remember vaguely seeing that a series called 'Suits' was being shown on Freeview, but I never watched it, no-one ever recommended watching it.

All channels on Freeview are unwatchable at the moment. Been like that for a few days, terrible service.
