About Us

14 July 2008

We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to watch great TV for free. That's what Freeview is all about. All you have to do is buy either a digital box, Freeview+ digital TV recorder  or digital TV with Freeview built-in. It's simple, there are no strings attached and no subscription.

Once you have checked  you are in a Freeview coverage area, make sure that your rooftop aerial is in good condition. That way you'll get great reception with the sharpest picture and the best quality sound.

The Organisation

Freeview is managed by DTV Services Ltd, a company owned and run by its five shareholders - BBC, BSkyB, Channel 4, ITV and Arqiva. Launched in October 2002, the Freeview service provides free-to-air digital TV channels, radio stations and interactive services through an aerial.
