As noted here earlier this month, OFCOM is now able to consider complaints concerning content on some of the BBC’s platforms.
Background information – including the Broadcasting Code against which complaints are assessed – is available here and here.
Before a complaint concerning a BBC TV channel, radio station or BBC iPlayer can be considered by OFCOM, it should in most cases have first been made to the BBC itself: details and online form available here.
Note: it is important to keep the reference number of any complaint made to the BBC that you may wish to pursue further through OFCOM.
Different categories of complaints to OFCOM are explained here and the online form for submission of a complaint concerning a BBC programme is available here.
We have updated our ‘Resources’ section and the page titled ‘How to Complain to the BBC’ in the ‘Get Involved’ section of the menu bar above to include information concerning the new system.
