Can anyone verify that their channels 342 and 340 are wrong???

I am receiving The Box (335) on channels 340 and 342, which are supposed to be Magic TV and Kerrang! respectively.

This is due to the fire at the Red Bee Media Centre which happened on 25th September, is still ongoing and affecting BT, Sky, VM, Freeview, Freesat and the other providers.

The info below is from fallout-from-red-bee-broadcast-centre-incident-latest-status/

On day 13, Box Hits came back online. The simulcasting arrangement changed to: Magic and Kerrang simulcasting The Box; 4Music simulcasting Box Hits. This is still ongoing.

There's been quite a few recent threads on this subject.

It's due to a problem at the Red Bee broadcast centre which C4 use for a lot of their channels, there's been a few knock-on issues that are dragging on somewhat, and this is one of them. Lack of subtitles on many C4 programmes is another.

Take a read of this page for some more info.
