Who do I contact for support

Yesterday I got the YVM4 error when trying to access the On Demand players i.e BBC iPlayer. Tried a soft reset by pressing the blue on/off button at the front for 8 secs but problem still persisted.
I then turned power off/on via the switch at the back and problem gone!
Today I found that On Demand and BT Vision were not available, got error saying not connected to network.
Tried both the previous solutions and by turning power off/on at the back I got demand back and network showed connected.
My broadband was functionning correctly on my PC so loss of network.
The YouView Community forum has a number of posts about this, with some people getting the problem on a regular basis, and it is being reported that it may be due to the box losing the DNS setting. The following fix was suggested by YouView:
Please go to Settings > Network & Internet > Network Connection Status. If the status is saying CONNECTED, please try the following steps: 
Go to Settings > Network & Internet > Wired Connection. If the box is saying AUTOMATIC, switch it to MANUAL. Click Next. You will see three rows of numbers. Leave them as they are and click Next. You will see two rows of boxes, Primary and Secondary DNS. Leave the second row blank. Put a single '8' into the Primary DNS boxes so that it reads 8.8.8.8. Click Next and when it finishes finding your router, click Finish. 
Turn off your router, and reset your box. Turn the box and then the router back on again. When it resumes, you should be able to access On Demand content.
However there seemed to be some misgivings by users that this would actually make any difference.
Having had both the problems mentioned earlier I started to wonder who I should contact for support if I get problems. Should it be BT Vision as they supplied the box, or should it be YouView as it's their service.
Would appreciate some advice.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I have mine setup for static ip addressing, due to the number of devices I have on my network - so not had that issue as of yet.
The reboot of router will flush the dns, so this is why it's recommended as if something had spammed dns cache it can cause numerous problems, so best to clear it out which is by rebooting the router - for pc's you can clear cache on the pc itself via command line - and on my pch-c200 i can clear the cache directly on that.
In regards to support, if you got the product from BT then BT should officially be providing the support and no-one else, but there should be no reason why you can't go directly to youview or humax to get other questions you may have answered

  • HT1657 My rented video played 1/2 way and I can't do anything about it. Who do I contact for a rerental or refund

    Who do I contact for a rerental or refund

    try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account (Store > View My Apple ID on iTunes 11) and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that film and use the 'Report a Problem' link and fill in details about the problem (iTunes support should reply within, I think, about 24 hours).
    Some people have had a problem with the 'report a problem' link (it's been taking people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) - if it does that to you then try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page.

    You most likely did not receive the usual receipt because it was one of those authorization charges. It happens time to time, and should drop off your card. But go ahead and check with iTS just to make sure.

    I have an idea for an app involving the Iphone camera but I have no programming skills and no time. Who can I contact to make the app? This idea involves using facial recognition technology.

    Search the AppStore for a developer who already makes similar or related Apps, and contact them with your idea.

  • Who can I contact for a refund/credit?

    I've been dealing with this mess for over a month now: http://community.spotify.com/t5/Desktop-Mac/Spotify-shows-only-the-first-track-I-play/td-p/10811I FINALLY heard back from support, but when I asked them about getting a refund and who I should speak with, they completely avoided the question. I want a refund because the product I pay for DOES NOT WORK. If there's no one I can contact at spotify, then what about the better business bureau or something similar? Never in my LIFE have I dealt with a company that cares so little for their customers.

    I AGREE i was given a free month trial, which never went through successfully only the payment part..... the next 30 days were all regular spotify no premium, i checked my paypal subscriptions to make sure spotify wasnt on there. 30 days later... bam you've been charged for spotify. no free trial no nothing, just straight took my money and haven't contacted me yet. Some SERIOUS thieves lets see how long they take to answer my refund question. I'll never ever even think about going premium on a site with no customer service
    Hey! Welcome to the community :)
    You will need to get in touch with the customer services team directly using the online contact form and they will be able to investigate this for you. All billing/refund requests are dealt with by them directly and not here on the community since private details are normally required. If you got charged after 1 month, then you did activate a premium trial, but it sounds like you might have done so on the wrong account (since its easy to have two). 
    If you get an automated email reply back directing you to the community or help pages, you need to reply directly to that email (even if its from no-reply) and one of the customer services agents will get back to you as soon as possible.

  • Who should I contact for a photo taken by iphone that could be a potential advertising idea.

    I just found something AMAZING from a picture taken from an iphone and I want to contact the advertising department. (It is a great idea for advertising the big screen of iphone 6 plus)
    I am an international student from University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Two day's ago there was a lunar eclipse and I took a picture of the moon with my iphone 5s with the aid of a telescope. I was stunning with great details of craters and valleys. Today I received my iphone 6 plus. With the bigger screen I observed the picture carefully and suddenly I found a red dot on the moon. Then I zoomed in and OMG it is a satellite! I cannot believe I can actually take a picture of human satellite via a cell phone. I am truly impressed by the power of large screen of iphone 6 plus!
    Some of my friends think I should contact Apple because they think it is a "million-dollar idea". I just want to share my surprise to more people and show them that this new iphone is just spectacular!
    So who is the best person I should contact? Thanks a lot!

    Thanks Colin.
    But I have tried Apple Care before and they always tell me it´s a matter for Apple Retail, of which they are not a part.
    Is there not an Apple Customer Complaints number or better still, e-mail address? I am sick of speaking to (usually rather arrogant) Dutch techies who aren´t interested in helping me.
    As for the problem, I had a feeling it´d be the logic board. They have twice told me that they´d repaired it. Seems like they´ve just done two bodge jobs to me. Not the kind of service I would expect from Apple.
    Any other ideas from anybody? Someone must know something...?

  • I'm in Auckland NZ currently but live in Winnipeg, MB Canada. I recently spilt liquid on my phone and would like to purchase another iPhone 4 and have it shipped to me in NZ. Who would I contact for this?

    I'm currently in Auckland NZ for a year. I'm originally from Winnipeg, MB Canada. I spilt liquid on my iphone and need to purchase a new one. I'm still under warranty and would like to know who to contact from Auckland NZ to buy another iphone from Canada and have it shipped to me. So far the numbers that I've called haven't worked. Help!

    Apple will not ship out of the country at all.
    The warranty is irrelevant. As with any warranty on any product, damage is not covered.

  • Can't find any contact for support besides forums.

    I can't cancel my Creative Cloud Annual plan because it won't give me an option to contact support. My plan ended today and I just want to make sure I don't get billed anything more. The only option it gives me to contact support is telling me to go to the forums, I can't find any numbers or emails, it's just telling me to go to the forums and yet it says the only way to cancel my subscription is to contact support.

    This is an open forum, not Adobe support... You need Adobe support to cancel a subscription
