About BBC

BBC is listed in our News category and checked at bbc.com. Live checks and user reports.

BBC has no official status feed we can read, so this page relies on our own checks and user reports.

What usually goes wrong with news services: news sites and live streams slowing under breaking-news traffic, and weather alerts and radar pages failing during storms.

Measured uptime from our checks: 100% over 1 day of checks. No public incidents logged since monitoring began 1 day ago.

Response time over the last 24 hours: 109 ms average, 11–1929 ms range across 55 successful checks.

BBC not working for me but the status is fine. What now?

It is usually local: try another browser or the app, switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data, and clear the cache. For news services, watch for news sites and live streams slowing under breaking-news traffic, and weather alerts and radar pages failing during storms. If many people report BBC here at once, the problem is on BBC's side.
