What do I need to do if I'm tuned in through satellite?

Check your box before April

If you’re tuned into Freeview through a satellite dish, we recommend you check your satellite box (if you use one).

Check if you can watch Sky Open, eden+1, Bravo+1 and Al Jazeera English on your satellite box.

If you can’t watch those channels, even after a retune, then it’s time to replace your satellite box.

If you can, then you’re all good. 

Accept TV updates or retune in early April

When the satellite transition takes place in early April, your box or TV may prompt you to OK an update, please accept the update. If you miss an update and find a couple channels missing, channel surf through your list of TV stations to bring them back, or give your TV or box a retune.

If you get Freeview through a UHF aerial or our Freeview Streaming TV app: you won't need to do anything at all.
