If you’re over 75, disabled or are on various benefits, the Switchover Help Scheme can help you convert one TV set to digital. TV is going digital all over the UK, and soon the traditional TV signal will be switched off in your area. This means that if you haven’t got digital TV already, you will lose your current TV service. The Help Scheme’s purpose is to make every effort to ensure that all eligible people can continue to watch public service television channels after the switchover. The Help Scheme will offer each eligible household help to switch one TV set to digital, including equipment, installation and aftercare. Over seven million people in the UK will be eligible to receive help. If you are eligible for the Help Scheme, we’ll be in touch personally when switchover comes to you in your area to ask if you would like our help.
