83% of the UK population are already able to receive Freeview.
To find out whether you are in a coverage area, carry out a coverage check.
The Freeview Postcode checker gives you a good indication of whether you'll be able to receive Freeview. However it is not a guarantee but a prediction based on an area 100 square metres around your postcode. There might be some properties where Freeview cannot be received, because of the exact location of the property and other local factors.
We recommend that you check with your retailer that you can get a refund on your set top box, if these local factors prevent you from receiving Freeview. In our experience, retailers understand the issues surrounding predictive coverage and are therefore often willing to provide full refunds to customers who find themselves unable to receive Freeview channels after making a purchase
Can I receive Freeview abroad?
No you will not be able to receive Freeview abroad; it is only available in the UK.
