Starting to live in London

Hi Ilker

Welcome to Expat.com

Oh, I do like posts yours, thinking ahead

First of all, do you know where you will be living, do you have an address?

Before you can get a TV License, TV package you will need to know where to send the bill and to install any equipment.

Anyway, you will need a TV license

You have 4 main choices to receive TV in the UK.

Freeview

Freesat

SKY

Virgin Media

With Freeview and Freesat you will need to get a separate broadband deal.

SKY works off a satellite and Virgin Media works off cable.

Also needs a UK bank account for the Direct Debit to pay the bill.

Oh - and Freeview is already built into most new TV's in the UK.

Correct, I forgot about payment

Hi SimCityAT,

Thanks for your answer.
Yes, i have already rented the apartment at Richmond Hills at Richmond

I am going to check the alternatives which you wrote. Appreciate...

Foxtons give me a company name - tenantshop
It seems that they can make some deals for us from SKY. Do you know about them, can i trust? Any bad feedback, have you ever heard?

It is tough to decide
