More than that.

The satellite frequency has gone as well. "No video/audio' message when looking direct at the stream. Channel totally vanishes from the satellite upon a new search.

So is this the beginning of the end or the end of the beginning ?

RE: Sin TV - General Chat & Discussion
What they did right in my eyes:

*Snappy, contemporary and relative enough channel name/brand name for starters.
*Pink n black colour scheme.
*Some ok sets - tool thing, silky bedroom, pole/bar, washing machines n stuff (this last set not a huge fave for me personally but seemed to always get the comments in when B/Bird did the 'house set' way back when and bed/pole whilst cliché are always gonna be good in glamour context)
*Launching with some big profile old school names like Tiffany and a few more.

What they did wrong in my eyes:

*Limited interaction with cappers/callers via twitter, didn't retweet a lot of cap pages with big follower counts etc. Seldom retweeted their own babes in fact.
*Clearly didn't have a big enough budget at launch to really weather the storm whilst 'getting things going' and expected momentum to drop in fast and not have to work hard at building their own viewer/caller base - probably presumed more would 'just come with the girls' than actually did, weren't prepared to wait for call volumes to come up over time.
*Limited or no interaction on babe land forums x 3-4 places from channel reps and staff.
*Added to the babe pool too quickly and didn't let the 'launch week' babes run with it enough and stamp their own vibe/ID on the channel, again probably just thought "ah Tiffany on Sin is no different to Tiffany on BS", ehen it is, it really, really is if you look at how big BS is as a marketing machine and difference in their established interest and profile vs that of a brand new entity.
*Launched with 90-95% brunettes and only 1 or 2 blondes and no redheads. Any good channel should have a mix of hair colours, babes who 'dom' or not, babes who go naked more or 'not', babes who prefer to be clothed more or not, babes who do foot fetish or not.
*Sounds like Spellar Spai Tongue
*From some comments I read though obv can't be proved beyond doubt seemed to mess some babes about with pay which reeks of 2009/2010 lame arse antics.

RE: Sin TV - General Chat & Discussion
Ive just been checking a few things about Sin tv, they still have a Ofcom licence that was updated today http://www.ofcom.org.uk/static/radiolice...1sintv.htm

The company behind Sin TV is still active and hasn't gone bust https://companycheck.co.uk/company/09338...ED/summary

Non of this means much, they will probably keep their licence updated until it needs renewing .
The company info doesn't give much away has no accounts are available [yet] with it being a new company .

That said the licence and company are still active .

It was the 22nd when Ofcom did a general update. All Ofcom licence records were updated that day.

RE: Sin TV - General Chat & Discussion
Sin TV first had their Ofcom licence granted back in March 2015.
Even though they are no longer broadcasting it was updated again today (4/4/2016) http://www.ofcom.org.uk/static/radiolice...1sintv.htm

So have they renewed it for another 12 months ?, if so why ?

I also notice that Sin TV still have a freeview place holder slot (channel 184) and that licence was also updated today http://www.ofcom.org.uk/static/radiolice...1sintv.htm

RE: Sin TV - General Chat & Discussion
Those dates IMO mean little since whenever I look the info is updated that very day.

When I checked a few months ago, the company was late filing its Annual Return. This a statutory document and should be filed shortly 12 months after the incorporation. In is case December 2015.

This page is quite informative:

RE: Sin TV - General Chat & Discussion
^
The date means a lot for the Sky/satellite licence in particular, as it shows the company behind Sin TV still had a valid licence on the date shown, it shows the company behind Sin TV hasn't yet handed the licence back (channels that no longer broadcast usually hand back their licence if they think there is no prospect of it being used at some point), it shows that the licence is still valid and up to date, and can still be used to broadcast TV programs, it also shows that to date Ofcom still regard the company fit and proper to hold a licence, if Ofcom didn't the licence wouldn't be updated and would be revoked.

If the licence that was originally granted last March 2015 was to March 2016, then Sin TV may have paid again for another year as it's now April, so the licence could possibly have been renewed for another year ?

PS, the info isn't updated every time i check, sometimes the last update date stays the same for weeks .

It's interesting that the strike of action was discontinued last March, maybe the company intends to carry on in some capacity and that's why the TV licence has not been handed back, and could still be required at some point ?

{edit} it makes me wonder with the licence being updated/renewed and not handed back if another company may use it at some point ?, there is no chance IMO of Sin TV returning to TV, but maybe another company without a licence of their own may use Sin's licence, RLC for example if they return to tv could possibly use it in the same way they used Playboy's licence ?
