I can’t play my audiobook on Borrowbox, the play button doesn’t work and I get an unknown error message. It’s so frustrating, I am listening to a book I’ve been waiting months for and if I don’t get it finished I have to wait till2028 for it!!!!

There is no sound from my audio book from my loan screen. If I look at other audio books and preview there is sound but if I borrow it there is no sound again. It’s was working when I went to bed and then nothing in the morning. I have uninstalled and reinstalled to no avail. Please help, love my audio books

When pressing the 'play' button on BorrowBox nothing happens. Everything else works as normal. I've cancelled the borrowbox app on my iphone and then reinstalled. I still have the same problem above.

I viewed the app on my Apple Watch and after that, whenever I try to play the audiobook I am part way through does not play. I constantly get a message ‘an unknown error occurred please try later’.

I had to renew a book I was halfway through this morning and now that book is stuck at the point I left it. It keeps loosing downloads of that and the other two books I have ready to listen to. Once downloaded they won’t play either. I have uninstalled the app and reinstalled it but the problem remains. Help! Many thanks Jan Brickell

BorrowBox remains in a state of updating on my iPad but I use no problem on my phone, very recent problem

For the past 24h Borrowbox Leicestershire, viewed online on a pc, has been displaying vast amounts of white space between, for example, the genre listings & a couple of pages of white space before individual item details. This makes searching for anything an enormous chore. Oh yes, & preview for audio does not function. Rather a long time for such problems to be left unresolved.
