nothing unless you manage to get onto the freeview tier which i doubt youll get on, they no longer offer it. i think im right here, i could be wrong though :erm:

You live in a cable area. That product is for those that don't live in a cabled area.

Your TV almost certainly has Freeview anyway.

Why do you say that? MY main TV set doesn't have freeview, it's not even HD

Besides, if they don't have an aerial, a set with Freeview is pretty pointless ;)


OP, try phoning retentions saying you wish to drop the XL tv pack as you only find you're watching the free to air channels, you may be pleasantly surprised at what they offer you.

It's fair to say that isn't the situation for the majority of people.
