The UK landline switch-off is closer than you think...
..since September 6th 2023 BT have not sold any copper based products. Customers requiring a new home phone line are now put onto their VoIP (voice over internet protocol) service called "Digital Voice". The existing copper PSTN (public switched telephone network) network is due to be switched off in 2025 after being the backbone of connectivity across the UK since 1911....

Tropospheric Ducting Update!

This morning I have had people calling to cancel their appointments due to normal reception resuming, which is telling me that the recent atmospheric issues have passed.

If you are still experiencing a poor Freeview reception, feel free to get in touch via [email protected] / 01233 333367 to book a service call.

I have been inundated with calls over the last week pretty much regarding the same issue - Pixellating TV channels and sometimes a total loss of TV channels.
I am struggling to try and contact everyone back, but I am trying to catch up in-between my jobs.

When this has happened in the past, I have had these customers cancel appointments before I could get to them as normal service had resumed by itself.

The reason for the issue? Most probably an atmospheric condition called Tropospheric Ducting. It only normally lasts no more than a week.

Tropospheric Ducting is more likely to cause a problem for you if you have a high signal strength coming out of the cable that you plug into your TV or Freeview receiver. Think of it like a temporary natural amplifier. If you have suffered each and every year, it could mean that your signal levels are either out-of-spec, or close to out-of-spec and ideally need to be attenuated/reduced.

To see the past, and current Tropospheric Ducting forecast, please see here: https://www.dxinfocentre.com/tropo_eur.html

If you have been having issues for much longer than a week or two, this is probably not the cause, and you can book in a service call via [email protected] .
Obviously you can call: 01233 333367 but it will take a little while for me to get back to you.

Please note that Freesat and Sky are NOT affected by Tropospheric Ducting.

I use 2 platforms to capture customer reviews; Google and FreeIndex.

I would like to thank my customers who have taken the time to write a review for Ashford Vision. You have helped me to climb to the top of the ladder (no pun intended) on FreeIndex.

See what people are saying on this platform.

A lovely sunny morning installing at Faversham Lakes ☀️

I can't believe that we are thundering our way through March already. I meant to post this one up earlier this year when I attended for this customer. The Big Cat Sanctuary is based in Kent, and it is a centre dedicated to the conservation of wild cats. You can book an overnight safari experience here, and stay in a lodge on-site....

The way that Virgin Media landline customers plug in their home phones is changing.

For quite some time, new customers have not had telephone sockets installed when opting for a landline. Virgin Media have been using routers connected to their fibre network to supply a phone line at people's homes.

Now for long existing customers, the time has come where you have received an adapter to plug into your modem. For most people this does not cause a problem. But what if you are using a hardwired telephone extension socket also? After the first 12 months from install, these become the customers responsibility.

Don't worry, you are not on your own with this!
A Telco Service Call from Ashford Vision starts at just £60, and that gives you up to the 1st hour of time. Generally, this would be enough time to get you up and running from all sockets.

You can contact us with any questions using the details below.

It has been over 3yrs since my last Rooftop Selfie post.

I always feel a little down with the weather change from summer to autumn. But when an autumn morning is as fine as today's, a Rooftop Selfie was on the cards!

Have a great day everyone!
