freesat buyer's guide
freesat is a subscription-free satellite TV service offering digital television across the UK. The service offers 150+ TV, radio and interactive channels, On Demand TV and HD channels. All subscription free.
To enjoy freesat you’ll need a freesat digital box and an HD Ready TV, and connecting to freesat is easy with Tesco. If you don’t already have a satellite dish, we can arrange installation for you.
