Nick: The Help Scheme will provide additional help to people in areas with no predicted Freeview reception, above the £40 norm.
There are no such things as "IP12" and "IP15" regarding reception. Your exact location determines the services available. Just moving a few hundred meters can change what you get.
I'm sorry, but as you are part of the 1.5% who are outside the official terrestrial coverage area you will need to provide for satellite coverage.

sandra mcnally: Virgin 1 closed some time ago. Sky don't own Dave or Yesterday, it belongs to UKTV (part owned by BBC Wolrdwide).
Sky won't put pay channels out for free. Why would they?

Malcolm Morris: Under certain circumstances, if a building is built in the path between you and the transmitter, the developer is required to "make good" your reception.
From memory, you will need to have been resident at your address for some time, and you will also have to provide proof (your mapping you have done) to show that the new building has created a shadow.
I can't remember if you contact the developer directly, or if you make a representation via the council planning office. I would suggest you give the latter a call, as they will be able to give you up to date advice.

Cyril Teed: Not a fault at the transmitter, but good weather over France, see What is the Inversion Effect and why does it effect my Freeview TV reception?

Nick: For the coverage of the Aldeburgh transmitter, see Aldeburgh digital switchover date | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice .
I would have thought that the incoming signals could come from Belgium, the Netherlands and France.
Generally speaking, I think you will find that the Freesat boxes are usually built quite well and should last several years.
