Re: Tv loss
No TV here in Lichfield area either (sound ok)
Phoned up 'support' went around three different people who were no help at all - very frustrating.
Is there a problem in the Midlands area?

Re: Tv loss

They should have credited you while on the call but ring once fixed and you should get it.

Once it's sorted on Saturday, then call Customer Care on 150 and they will credit for your loss of service.
