NottsUK: Thanks for that, I shall put it in my diary. This could be a potentially important day, especially in the current economic climate (or lack thereof).

gail: As switchover has not yet happened I would not be too concerned. However, you should have the BBC channels on Freeview now if you did not have them before.

Rob: You should have ALL the BBC channels when you switch your set to "digital mode" and retune. They are being broadcast on the old ITV1 analogue frequency (ITV1 analogue has moved to BBC TWO analogue old slot).
Yes, the channels listed at the top of the page will be on in two weeks. You will only get the HD channels if you have a Freeview HD (DVB-T2) set, however.

Gemma Haran: If you are missing those channels:
First, try this - My Freeview box has no EPG, is blank on FIVE, ITV3, ITV4, ITV2+1, has no sound or the channel line up is wrong | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice
Second, you may have too much signal. If you have a booster or amplifier, remove it from your system, if you don't you might have to fit an attenuator, which cost about five pounds.
Third, there is an outside chance that you have a box that does not support the 8k mode. If you do you will need a new box.

Dave Bell: I have just rechecked and Mux A is still being broadcast and there are no changes to the output of other multiplexes.
The most reasonable explanation is that the single high power multiplex is causing an over load in an amplifier and this is effecting your reception.
So, the usual thing applys: remove any booster or amplifiers from your system.

Clive: Please see Will there ever be more services on the Freeview Light transmitters? | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice .
The DAB networks are being improved all the time, but I can't be more specific without your full postcode. It is typical in areas such as your to use a rooftop DAB aerial.

Dave Bell: No services have stopped transmitting, I'm not sure why you would think so. You didn't care to name any...
