channels 912 and 959 are gone from sky

hopefully back before tomorrow night

I certainly don't think its got anything to do with ofcom and I have full faith that the channels will be back up and running again by tommorow. A technical problem does seem more likely. Ofcom are bastards but its highly unlikely that if all 3 channels were running at 9pm that they would be able to pull the plug so quickly on them and if they did then I'd imagine 902 would have also disappeared but its clearly unacceptable that Bangbabes haven't yet issued an official statement to confirm what has happened in this great mystery.

The plot thickens....


Both channels can be found by manually entering their frequency details via "add channels" on the Sky boxes.....yet they have disappeared from the EPG.

Surely someone hasn't "forgotten" to send a large bag of used notes to Sky for the EPG slot, have they ?

912 is back with emily but someone go get kerry

No 912 for me on SKY. I'll try the manual way.

I haven't got 912 back either

Don't panic folks, it looks like a technical cock-up at Sky's end.

I've got a free standing digital receiver as well as a Sky box and the two Bang Babes channels on Transponder 25 are still running fine, although all three have been broadcasting the same signal for the past hour and a half (I was puzzled as to why Emily was on all three channels earlier and then Lucy Z - I thought surely they could sort the breaks out better than that!).

They've just separated - Emily has just come on to 959 (Lucy Z is on the other two). If you are desperate you can tune them in manually:

Press "services" on your remote then
4 system setup
4 add channels

frequency 11527
polarisation V
symbol 27.5
FEC 2/3

then "find channels"

TMTN 1 & 2 should come up at the bottom of the list. Scroll down, press the yellow button and they should both "tick" - then "select"

Press "services" again and option 9 is "other channels" (you might need a pin - the last 4 digits on your Sky card unless you've changed it) and they should be there.

Note you cannot toggle them back and forth for "other channels" - you must come out and go back in each time (Sky made it deliberately awkward to stop people with motorised/multi-sat systems like me)

This is your workaround until Sky fix it!

Emily on "912" selected manually...if the last 3 digits of the phone number are any indication of the channel no.

It seems no-one has told Emily she's talking to herself...i wouldn't want to be around when she finds out

i havent either but emily appeared on 902 and then dissapeared again and 902 back to lucy

The times that I have been able to watch today, each and every time that i've tuned into 902 it's was used to promote Bangbabes, Now it's the only channel broadcasting. Why is no explanation forthcoming. Or is it because it's only sex channel viewers, and they don't really matter.
