Channel ReShuffle
Over on Digital Spy a thread has been started about a reshuffle of all the channels happening on September 6th - Link - http://forum.digitalspy.co.uk/board/...d.php?t=452045
Surely this is a wind up, you would think they would have had a high profile campaign to let people know this well in advance, the call centres would go into meltdown if they did this unannounced.

Re: Channel ReShuffle
Really can't see this happening on that date- as pointed out by the OP a change in channel numbers would be preceded with a high profile campaign, otherwise there would be lots of confused punters.
At the moment TW and the two NTL platforms have different numbers, so i would imagine that any renumbering would be done across all platforms at the same time.

It's not too hard though - Sky managed it recently with no real issues.

There is probably just a couple of channels moving.

Re: Channel ReShuffle
I hope it doesn't affect my favourites list. It took me about 2 hours to get that sorted.

Re: Channel ReShuffle
There's a PDF with all the new channels numbers here: http://www.ntlworld.com/microsites/t...nelnumbers.PDF
Your channel list should reset to numeric order when the numbers change.

Re: Channel ReShuffle
It will, but not at the same time. Langley first, then Bromley. There's also some changes to the Knowsley (ex-Telewest) numbering.
Compare and contrast: http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/displaye...elewestDigital
