Tacolneston (East Anglia) transmitter Freeview retune

I too have lost my SkySports through BT Vision along with CBeebies, BBC4 etc all on the same multiplex B. Have just phoned the DigitalUK helpline, but the chap was just 'try re-tuning in a couple of days as there are still problems with the Tacolnesten transmitter'. Didn't really have a clue when I said about them changing from Channel 58 to 66.
So have missed the rest of the cricket, weekend's football and tonight utd v spurs.
Disaster!
So, do I cancel the extra subscription (its on a rolling monthly) to skysports until November, or stick it out as it will be fixed?
Somebody, somewhere must know if this problem with mulitplex B is with us just very temporarily, until November or forever now?
Thanks

Thanks Briantist.
I have tried identifying any other equipment that may cause interference and been up in the loft this afternoon stripping back the ariels checking their connections. I have also recently moved power sockets in the loft so to move the powered splitter ensuring a short run of cable from rooftop ariel to living room, enabling me to receive some channels on Mux D that I wasn't before.
So prior to 17th my freeview signal, in my living room in particular, was great, as good as it has ever been and I was receiving all channels and well pleased.
Now its all fine apart from Mux B channels, and sometimes Mux1.
I'm currently sitting listening to the footy, as a utd fan, and its wholly depressing! :-(

Just tried removing the RF out from my BTVision box, re-tuned, and hey presto, its back!
Have put the RF out back in too and its still working.
I assume further works at Tacolneston have resolved the issues?!?!
Christina, give it go now....good luck!;-)
