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?

Does someone need to register a fault with the Faults Service?

Re: Tv loss

Got a bit more help, engineer out between 8-12 on sat which indian said couldnt be done. Still no tv now for next 4-5 days, great service..... Somehow doubt a refund will get issued!?
Still got comedy central and now have bbc2 as well! So safe for top gear I guess.

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

Re: Tv loss

Got through to a nice lady called Carol who has altered my settings to scart (not HDMI).

So no widescreen or HD for the moment.

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

This is now working and it's interesting to note that my area has no issues.
