GB News app to be removed from EE TV

[JordanTA]

GB News will be removing its app from our TV boxes from today  (21^st October).

Aerial mode

• If you’re in aerial mode, you’ll still see the GB News channel in your guide on channel number 236.

Internet mode

• If you’re in internet mode, you can watch GB News on YouTube, search GB News in the YouTube App.

Hi Darren, my TV box is in internet mode as my aerial signal is not the best.

I get really annoyed when I try to watch GB news that it isn't available on EE TV, Sky news and BBC news is available, but I would never watch either of them as they are corrupt and so not give a balanced view when it comes to covering news worthy items.

When I go to my father's GB news is available on his Sky TV box.

Surely EEtv can get their act together and add GBNews, the UK's number 1 news channel  to their channel listing.

One very disappointed customer

All news channels have their own perspective / skew @SteveH67 - trusting a single source of news is never a good idea.

GB News are welcome to join the EE TV channel line up - it would be their decision to do so though, not EE's.  GB News have added their app back to YouView though, so you can still watch the channel there.

Is there a way it can be removed on an individual box? Personally, I find it distasteful to see it there (others may disagree, which is of course fine). It would be great to be able to remove apps that you don’t want to see, to personalise your own box. I don’t care if a channel has made an agreement with Youview, we’re paying EE after all,

@NMH73 no you can’t remove any app from the box.
