I am not showing any information regarding the CW channels, so all my indication shows we still carry that channel. I'd love to help more. Can you send us a PM with your name and full address? 

 

To send a PM, please follow these steps:

• Click "Sign In" if necessary

• Click the "Direct Messaging" icon or https://comca.st/3iVtu1B

• Click the "New message" (pencil and paper) icon

• The "To:" line prompts you to "Type the name of a person", but don't do that.

Instead, type "Xfinity Support" there. As you are typing a drop-down list appears.

• Select "Xfinity Support" from the list. An "Xfinity Support" graphic replaces the "To:" line.

• Type your message in the text area near the bottom of the window

• Press Enter or tap the > icon to send it

@XfinityMorgan  I am having the same issue!  I live in Enola, PA. It pisses me off because I love to come home to Maury and the People's Court and all I am getting for at least 3 weeks is the stupid jewelry shopping network.

Can you confirm what channel number you're attempting to watch the CW on? I'm showing channel 13 as the SD feed and 805 as the HD feed for that area.

This is the response I received:

The issue you are experiencing is a direct technical issue with Sinclair broadcasting stations across the nation through their feeds. As it is not related to our service for resolution, any inquiries or questions would have to be directed towards them. They tell us they are working on a fix, but I don't have an ETA.

The problem in South-Central PA is at the station, WHP-DT3, owned by the Sinclair Broadcast Group. The over-the-air signal as well as the feeds Comcast carries are supposed to be the CW, but most of the time Jewelry TV is being broadcast instead.

Sinclair Broadcast Group, the nation’s second largest TV station owner, is experiencing technical issues with some of their local TV stations, as well as with their lines of communication (telephone, email, etc.). It's possible that this is related to the issue going on with Sinclair. If regular troubleshooting steps have been completed and we've also been able to confirm that the channel number you're experiencing this on is owned by Sinclair, then it's likely that this issue is a result of Sinclair’s technical difficulties. If this is the case for you, please know that we’re awaiting information from the programmer as to when the issue will be resolved. We will provide updates here accordingly.

Hi, @user_AT17 [Edited username to remove PII]! Thank you for reaching out on our Forums page for an update on the Sinclair Broadcast Group. We appreciate you greatly for patiently waiting for a response. While researching this further, I have discovered that as of yesterday, they're working diligently to fix the damage that was caused but it’s going to take some time because it was a big hacking attack. We will continue to monitor this issue on our end and follow up with an update. I also recommend in contacting [Sinclair](https://comca.st/3CnzAPB) to check on if they can provide any additional information as well.

I live in York and have been having the same problem but it’s finally fixed!  I watch Bob’s Burgers every night at 1 AM and tonight it’s actually on for the first time in weeks! I was going to call tomorrow and cancel cable… not just because of this but it sure wasn’t helping. But I’m so happy to see the show I fall asleep to every night that cable is safe for now!

I live in Michigan and this issue has been going on for over 4 weeks now.  It would be great to get an update from the company.  The issue is with both CW and Fox.

The CW channel will not stream on any devices in our area. It is channel 1020 in the Hartford CT area . It works fine on the X1 set top box. This needs to be fixed; it has been off for over 3 days now. Called Customer service and they say it is a known issue, but no ETA on resolution.
