Can I suggest you read Sams post again as you've obviously missed it or it's gone right over your head

I had read and fully understood Sams previous post, I was merely following on from what invisibleboy said adding that if More 4 didn't launch on Monday as it will on every other digital platform, there will be a lot of annoyed people.
All kudos for Sam posting on here giving us a bit of inside information, but all we've had recently is glorified "coming soon" statements, her last post indicating that we will hopefully be getting some official news about the launches which I'm sure will be yet another "coming soon"
It would be nice to know what this 'problem' actually is thats taken them over five weeks to fix, because every visible test that anyone has seen indicates there are NO problems with the channels.

Re: [Merged] New channels?
Well, hopefully since all the new channels including More4 are just sitting there hidden for most people a launch on Monday will be possible.

Re: [Merged] New channels?
Oh well at least Sky can get the golden dunce award as well as NTL!! At least its good to know that us NTL people are not the only ones who dont get their channels launched on the advertised day-its absolutly choice isnt it!!

Re: [Merged] New channels?
See when the channels are tested, does it just come up as if they are properly there?
eg if you stuck on 172 it would have the epg and everything for VH2?
Asked the same question over on DS but no one answered, so cheers in advance to anyone!

Re: More4
I am going to be really annoyed if I can't get More4 from tomorrow. It doesn't look like it'll be available, huh?
Why?

Re: More4
Given that ntl seems unable/unwilling to add these new channels it promised us five weeks ago, and reading a statement by Sam B, don't expect More4 to be on ntl at 8pm tomorrow night.
I think this would be a seriously damaging incident for ntl if More4 was not broadcasting on ntl at 8pm tomorrow night. They have had several weeks of notice about the launch date of this channel and they clearly have the space to carry it as Express Shopping Channel's closure frees to the necessary space.
I guess we shall see what happens in the next 24 hours.
