Hi,
I'm new to EE TV and have a question. Why do I need to register with ITV just to watch there Freeview channels? Of all the different providers I have had for my TV I have never had to register and sign in to watch what I would class as Freeview channels.
Thanks
Solved! See the answer below or view the solution in context.

Thanks for sharing, @LGS1 😊
Fingers crossed this should work for any others facing the same issue, too!

Just to say my solution worked for two days and then back to sign in. Maybe at some point EE might give a solution, didnt have issues with other tv box from another company before i came to EE!

It shouldn't ask you to log in again unless you reset the TV Box. We've had someone in our team report the same issue with his TV Box last week though, so it has already been raised with YouView for investigation.

@LGS1 can you please confirm that you HAVE actually signed in? i.e. that you signed in, and it's asking you to sign in again days later?
Or are you saying you found a way to bypass needing to sign in, but that bypass didn't last for long?
