EPG probs with NTL

Guys, it's really annoying me that the EPG still does not show More4 (amongst others) after nearly 10 months of the channel being in operation. This is through NTL in the Herts region.

I've posted something on the Microsoft news groups, I would appreciate if anyone having similar problems could go and post something against it, if enough people complain then maybe someone may do something!

And yep I have used the EPG problem form a number of times to report the issue!

Cheers
Stew

I'm also an NTL user in the Herts area, and its not just limited to More4 either. There are a few other channels that it doesn't list, and i've had to manually add. Although doing this just shows the channel, and not whats on.

I'd be interested to find out who and where the Guide listings are maintained and updated by!?

Good post

Seems like the post on the microsoft forums are slipping away without comment, and they certainly don't seem to read the error reports submitted with guide problems. This is very annoying!
