BBC Radio player not working

[adeski]

Anyone experiencing difficulties in streaming programmes'? Just tried The Now Show. ) one of most popular). Pressed play button..nothing happening. Tried others. Same problem. I know the app is a joke but this takes the biscuit. Who do we contact to make it work?

Streaming works fine on my Android tablet. And The Now Show is available as a podcast which is my normal way of listening to it.

Cheers Gomez . Now working. Let's hope they're working on a Win 10 universal app on a par with ios/android.

No app update so must have been an issue at the server end.

This is just a short update to advise that this fault has now been fixed and you should be able to listen to all your radio favourites as normal.

We’re really sorry for any problems this caused you.

Past few days been getting ' Sorry we couldnt open app' messages. Taken over minute to open if it does with plain text! Where do we complain?

Yes. Theres been a drop off in performance in past 2 weeks. Just get the dots going across the screen. I page back and re-try. Sometimes get to programme page, sometimes not.
