What do I need to do?
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, or you may need to give it 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.
