On January 19th 2026, I sent this complaint to the BBC regarding their coverage of the QEUH water supply infections:

Ten days later, they apologised for the delay in responding. In my experience, they never meet their 10 day target, suggesting they’re under pressure from unhappy viewers in greater numbers than before.

Today 28 days later, this:

We are writing to apologise that we’ve not been able to reply to your complaint within the 10 working days we aim for. While we manage this for most complaints, unfortunately it’s not always possible and we are sorry that a response to your complaint is now overdue.  We will respond as soon as we can, and we appreciate your understanding.

If you wish to refer this delay and the substance of your complaint to the BBC’s regulator Ofcom, you can do so online at https://www.ofcom.org.uk/make-a-complaint/complain-about-tv-radio-or-on-demand-services/ or by post to: Ofcom, Riverside House, 2a Southwark Bridge Road, London SE1 9HA. Please include for Ofcom a summary of your correspondence with the BBC, and any BBC case reference numbers which you have been given. 

They’re struggling but they will respond even though it does not answer the complaint at all.
