poxy NTL msg on paramount

bealbocht

I like to watch a bit of paramount comedy chanel, but the ntl msg that they ran on most stations for a few days when chanel 6 started, they seem to have left on Paramount, and just not bothered taking it off.

so every 5 minutes I get told that MTV has been swapped with C6

They dont run the msg on C6 or I assume MTV (if I ever watched it) so I really get the impression the have just not bothered ... or some lazy slob (probably a bloke just like me) keeps meaing to do it, but keeps forgetting, and the management are too busy getting up early to make sure call center staff are not 30seconds late, motivating them to the point of extream unhelpfullness and grumpyness.

Anyway I've had enough, goddamit , so I'm writing an email to this address

Customer.Support@ntl.ie

Its scary , because it has the word support and NTL in the same string, but I'm going to do it anyway..

I will of course be using one of my email addresses that is not obviously connected to my cable account, I've dealt with these lads before, and I'd hate to be seen as a complainer.. I know how compaliners get dealt with in this country.

Please support my cause by sending an email of your own.

And as I write this I think, if we all use the same subject such as

"poxy msg on paramount comedy chanel"

there is a smidgen more chance of success...

That channel's gone really crappy recently anyway. Those hidden camera and home video shows are just god-awful - anyone who find them funny deserve a lobotomy.

And what's with the censoring of That 70's Show? They keep cutting the sound whenever someone says words like "ass" or "bitch", which are said an awful lot on that show - why do they even bother showing it at that time if they don't find those words suitable for that time? This is all besides the annoying fact that they show the same two seasons OVER AND OVER AGAIN (there are 8 seasons!).

The only good stuff they have on that channel are the channel 4 and BBC comedies, but they barely show any of them any more. And what's the point in staying up till 3 am if there's no Cosby Show or Taxi?

I agree, that really ****** me the **** off. I mean **** is on after the watershed mostly and I'd like to think we can handle a bit of ***, *****, ****, **** ********, ******** **** ******, bananas were so tasty. Should have been there man, that trip to the zoo was the best!

Been watching paramount on ntl in my boyfriends the odd time over the past week or so and there's no text showing up. However, paramount is on another channel too (they seem to repeat themselves) and the text is there. Are you sure it's the right channel you're watching?
