HomePods not playing Global Player stations

home pods and global player

Hello,

For about 5 weeks I have not been able to play any Global Player stations such as Classic FM on the home pods. Can anyone please check this out because it’s such a shame some of the best music is currently not available through Siri. 

Thank you.

New HomePod user here. Brought mainly to have ClassicFM in the kitchen it worked for a while then I suspect after in update it stopped working. We reported the problem to Apple support & was told they knew about the issue and to check again in a few hours. 3 weeks later and it’s still not working despite reloading everything again rebooting updating software to the latest version etc. it works randomly now for a minute or two but then cuts out. I haven’t been impressed with Apple support, very difficult to connect then they say it’s a known problem goodbye.
