BBC teletext finished? - bathtub tom

I used it a few days ago (dinosaur - I know), but today it's not there. I know they want to switch it off, but have they done so?

Thought it disappeared years ago*, replaced on the BBC by enhanced digital services (red button)

Mine still works. Maybe it varies by transmitter.

I had a look on my remote to see if there was still a teletext button, I was surprised to see there was!
I got no teletext available message, I thought it had stopped years ago.

It was the internet of it's day. The main consideration when buying a TV was whether it had Fast Text or not.

Tried it again and it's now working. Must've just been down for a while.
