Introduction to Freesat

Q. How does Freesat compare to Sky or Virgin Media?
A. Freesat is not intended to compete with Sky TV. The concept of Freesat is
that the services are completely free with no contracts and no subscription
charges. Sky, Sky HD and Virgin Media services offer premium packaged
programmes on a subscription basis over a contracted period. Many
customers will want to continue their subscription to Sky or Virgin Media in
order to receive the movies and sports packages offered by these
providers.
Q. What channels will I receive on Freesat?
A. Freesat are planning to launch with over 80 TV and radio channels but
new channels are being added every month. Most Freesat products have
the ability to automatically update with the latest channels and services.
Please visit the Freesat website for the latest update of channel and
