There's a helpline.

08456 50 50 50

Opening hours are Mon - Fri 9am - 7pm, Sat 10am - 4pm.

But I'm sure you will need to retune.

TV Re-tune faqs

Anyone using a Freeview TV or box will need to re-tune their equipment on or after 30 September, as well as at each stage of the digital switchover. In addition, re-tuning from time to time is good practice, to receive the latest channel line-up.

Put in your postcode and house number above to find out your other re-tune dates.
