user_ppyh1y Hello and thank you for reaching out via our Xfinity Community Forums. I can understand why you're frustrated. If everything was working this morning and nothing has changed on your account, it would be upsetting to suddenly start seeing a location message for your local channels. We're happy to help take a closer look. When you have a moment, please send us a Direct Message with your name and service address, and we'll review the account for you. If possible, please include a screenshot of the message you're seeing and let us know what device you're using to watch TV.

 

We'll do our best to figure out what's causing this and get you pointed in the right direction.

Thanks for clarifying! Just to confirm, are you seeing the message about turning on your location services on your TV screen while using the Xfinity Stream app through the Fire Stick?
