Reviews and Complaints

I too was totally disgusted by Danni's sexist remarks to Danyl. Direct comment on National television on his sexuality is totally inappropriate and irrelevant in a singing competition. Such a deliberate attempt to discredit him should result in her being told to leave the show and a more suitable judge found. There is no place for comments like these. As a minimum she should make a public apology at the start of tonights show and face internal disciplinary. It was a deliberate attempt on her part to publicly humiliate him and that is nothing short of disgraceful.
What with the phone scandal last year and this disgraceful and totally inappropriate behaviour this year, I think this should be the last series of the x-Factor.

Dont you mean Callum francis. Aiden davis was the one in the final who had all those versions of himself played behind him in the blue top. Callum was the one who sang 'consider yourself' in the audition and a medley of Jungle book in the semi final. Yes I do agree with you a little, he had star quality, and that old chap in 2 grand, well he couldn't really sing and let that girl who sand with him down. On the other hand, if Callum was so loved and fantastic, why wasn't HE put through by the public.

Aiden Davis wasn't in that semi-final. He performed the night after and won the public vote.
I think you mean Callum Francis...

Sour grapes!
2Grand rocks!

having recently watched britains got talent on monay and tuesday me and my family will not be watching another show ! ... as it seems you are treating the public as if we have no judgement of good acts after letting lorna come back for a second chance... there were many more talented contestants who deserved a second chance ! the judges are on the panel to pick out the best of the best in the auditions but the audience are better judges than them! thankfully the winning act is up to the public not the judges!
lets hope the best act wins BRITANS GOT TALENT

As with many others, we are disappointed with last nights fiasco, even after sleeping we awoke to find we were still in shock that a 10 year old can throw a tantrum and get away with it, if an adult had performed in the same way, would the judges have given thenm another chance and told the nation that they were brave? we don't believe they would, after watching this so called talent show for the last week and looking forward to the final, we are actually thinking that maybe it's not as important to us anymore, things are not right with it, we would like to see the decision over ruled but know that won't happen, the question is if the 10 year old can't cope in rehearsals then are we being fair to her tonight to put her through it all again when it's very obvious SHE CAN'T COPE WITH THE PRESSURE!

you weak Brits, letting the freakin Indians pour in and take over your country I feel badly for you.

Every cool show nowadays suddenly, an Indian slips into a major role at some point it is insipid

they completely trained you and now you are forced to watch ugly people on TV, they wont even let you watch good looking people anymore

well except for dr who

"For the record, I'm a level-headed, regular Christian" - thats why your whining about misrepresentation of christians... **yawn** Go back to watching songs of praise with thora hird.

I Have been watching and enjoying Britains got talent and have enjoyed every show. Until tonight.
This is a talent show and it has to be fair to all participants to keep its credibility. some of the acts are ridiculous of course but all abide by certain rules which govern whether they get to the next level.
tonight this did not happen because Hollie steel forgot her lines and thew a small tantrum on stage and as a result was given another chance to sing her song from the begining.
As soon as that happened the public vote was bias towards her tears and reactions and not her performance ( which was mediocre anyway) and she was pushed through to the final unfairly.

this really illustrates to me that some of the contestants on this show are too young and cant cope with the pressures that a show like this generates.
there should be a lower age limit (12)

on the other side of this coin is Aiden steel whos superb performance assured he deservedlyand fairly got through.

Having just watched this evening's episode of "Britain's Got Talent, " I couldn't believe that the judges didn't put through the 12 year old boy who played the drums. Admittedly, in my humble opinion, he wouldn't win the show, or probably not reach the Final, but when I saw some of the acts that were put through to the semi-finals, then I can only assume that these were to boost the viewing ratings and not based on any modicum of talent! That poor lad looked devastated and I just hope that he will be strong willed enough to carry on with his obvious ability to play the drums. Shame on you so called judges!

Don't have to be xtian to be ridiculed. That broad's got some balls though, I'll say that much. She was awful.

After watching a poor performance from England against Algeria yesterday I found myself also dissapointed with the post match analysis given by Adrian Charles and his colleagues. I am ignorant of ITV's popularity compared to the BBC in this area, but I think there is a lot that can be learned from the BBC format. After any footballing display I think technical analysis of what was done well and what was done not so well, whether its the fault of the players or the manager, needs to be highlighted coherently. I felt as though blatent attacks to the tactics used by Capello would have been identified by the BBC as there seems to be a desire within their philosophy to analyse the game and make greater use of knowledgable pundits. Instead ITV choose to focus on "entertainment" and use Adrian Charles' light hearted nature to fill out the half hour that they are given after the game. I would like to think the majority of footballing fans are given a greater sense of fulfillment by listening to experts in the field talking directly about tactical issues. One of the best things about football is people's varying opinions on how teams should be played and being fed opinions from people that have a real understanding of the game improves the country's outlook of the game as a whole.

I received a weight loss cure book and want to send it back. But every time i call i get put on hold for 30 mins or more and then when i call a second time they say they are closed and to call back when they are opened. The paper work that came with my order says their hours are 8am to 8pm est and i am in central time. I called at 1pm and at 12pm and at 8:30am and the same thing happens to me. I am printing out all these complaints and sending them back... They had better give me my money back. I am making copies of everything they sent so i have proof and they can't say i didn't try before i sent it back. This really does seem like a big scam. I am getting tired of buying things on the phone or the internet because i keep getting scammed.

I wish to complain about last nights coverage of the football match between Everton and Liverpool. My partner and I passionatelywatched the whole match only to find that ITV cut to the adverts when Everton scored their fabulous goal. What was ITV doing? It completely ruined our evenings entertainement. I really hope that any future important football matches will never been shown on ITV.They obviously do not understand the importance of such a game. Furthermore, when the commentators stated that it was a technical fault - how ridiculous - It is my belief that they just didn't want to be fined for not showing the sponsors.

I would like to take this opportunity to state that I have never complained about anything before, but sincerely felt that ITV should apologise for such a huge mistake!

i would like to complain about the images shown on the itv 6 o'clock news covering the floods in Brazil one of the clips showed a woman stranded holding a small dog as she was throw a safety line she jumped into the water and viewers saw her drop the dog and it disappears into the water while the woman was clearly in danger. Firstly i was extremly upset there was no warning that images maybe distressing, secondly it is well before the water shed and children may have been watching and finally as an animal lover i don't expect to see images of that degree without prior warning. The events are awful but showing images of a woman clearly trying to save her pets life as well as her own and unfortunatly failing were unnecessary.

dear sirs.
I watched dancing on ice on the 7/2/2011 and was discussed by the comments made the judge Jason Gardiner to his fellow colleagues and to the contestants to be totally offensive and his worth has a judge of what I am not sure and by itv, s lack of response I can only assume that they condone this disgusting way he attacks them personally and instead of doing what he is there for to judge the skating I can state that we will not be watching the program in the future.

I would like to make a complaint about Coronation Street and the attitude of Sally Webster's eldest daughter towards breast feeding on the 8pm viewing on 2nd November 2010. I feel that this portrays very negative opinions of breast-feeding and may deter some mothers from feeding their baby the way nature intended.

Dear Sirs
I have never before written in to complain about anything but feel quite strongly about the following subject, I have watched several times Alastair Stewart interview people and upon asking a question to the guest he then talks all over their answer. Firstly this is very rude and ignorant but to be honest what sort of example does this set to youngsters I am sure people wish to hear the answer not Alastair Stewart blabbing all over their response. I do apologise for writing but feel strong enough to do so.
Regards
Mr Sean Johnson

Oh please can you do something about the lovely Mary nightingale
If she fiddles any more with her papers I will scream.it is most unsettling and distracting.
Also Alistair Stewart starts to do it when he is paired with her.
It seems so unprofessional, as if she has just arrived at the studio and not prepared.it seems like nerves, but I can't listen to the news.Help !

if thats all u got to moan about then dont watch itv

As a recovering anorexic and someone who used to frequent these sites, I find them extremely triggering and not at all conducive to my recovery. And while there are people on there with true eating disorders struggling daily and looking for support (not necessarily healthy support just understanding and sometimes even competition), the majority of people on there are just dieters or wannarexics looking for a quick fix. Its obvious in their language and behavior and the stupidity of their comments. Thinness and the attitude that food is evil and bad is VERY pervasive there. 14 year old girls are being given advice on what's going on because they cant induce vomiting on their own. There are constant opinions being shared about why America is so "fat". When someone admits to purging a meal or binging out of control, they are met with responses that it is ok, dont beat yourself up, there is always tommorow to start fresh. These people could die anytime (from electolyte imbalances, esophagal eruption, etc) and this is not an acceptable answer if you ask me. Eating disordered people can not stop this behavior on their own. Its a deep seated mental illness that begs to be addressed by a professional or someone with strength in recovery.
There is no real moderation or monitoring of these sites due to the sheer volume of posts and the lack of responsibility and while there are "rules" they are constantly broken. And who knows what perverts are enjoying the half naked sometimes emaciated photos of young girls constantly being posted. Yes the posts are usually locked to members only, but do you trust all the members of these groups to be truly there for positive support?
I agree with fern cotton's observations 100%.

Totally agree, why axe shows which are enjoyed by millions.

Please sign the petition http://www.gopetition.co.uk/online/25502.html

Totally Agree. Removing quality viewing which is amusing, relaxing, with no gratuitous violence or foul language. And what will they replace it with: cheap nasty trash which costs bugger-all to produce and earns money via 'phone-ins etc. Shame on those responsible. The only half-decent Sunday evening slot will be lost to yet more reality TV. In truth there'll be very little left worth watching or looking forward to. The last bit of TV detox gone. It'll lose viewers to other channels.

Totally in agreement! Its Disgraceful the way ITV can treat the members of these productions! Its unfair and unnessacary! Why are ITV messing around so much? I Feel If ITV are going to treat them this way they should make their own programs using their own production company and then sell them back to ITV thus keeping the programs going and being cheaper in the long run. Though i doubt the actors or crew will put up with anymore for much longer...

I wish to make a complaint about tonight's X factor ( Saturday 11th Dec 2010).

My husband and I have a 9 year old daughter and we are all big fans.It is one show we always feel we can sit down and watch together as a family and there is very few of those. However tonight proved very uncomfortable. I realise both Rhianna and Christian Aguilera have provocative images and personas but very strongly feel that their costummes and routines were unnecessarily so tonight.

This is marketed as a family show and being what it is a certian amount of 'sex' is expected but this was nothing but vulgar.

I do not know how much control is actually held over such superstars but really think that semi naked females and sexually charged dance routines should not be aired in such a show.

I wish to complain about tuesday nights episode of emmerdale (13th november) between paul & jonny. I was physically sick after the show & during the night ended up with nightmares. I have always been a big fan of emmerdale & have visited esholt when it was being filmed their, but the story lines have gone downhill in the last few years, i don't know if i want to watch it anymore.

I would have thought this episode would've been shown after the 21:00pm watershed with warnings about it's content. I intend to take this further & want to know what you intend to do about it. The program was sick.

I want a response.

On itv-britans youngest grandmothers, their youngest grndmother was 37, but my auntie was a grandmother at 32 so there for its not true!

Ordered Kevin Trudeau Weight Loss Books 3 Nov 2007. Immediately charged to my credit card which I have paid off. ITV claims shipped to me on 24 Dec 2007(told when ordered 6-8 weeks). Told by TTV books were returned to them on 4 Jan 2008 by US postal service because of incorrect address although their records verified my address. Told by ITV 28 Jan 08 would receive within 5-7 business days. Called ITV on 5 Feb08 at 4:00 PM. No record that books were shipped. Told by them that they would send within next 5-7 days. Told ITV if they didn't do it before why should I believe you now. Told them to cancel and refund by money. Told that IRV can't DO THAT. ITV should be investigated for Interstate Fraud and Racteering.

I am shocked at the performances shown on xfactor tonight by Rihanna and Christina Aguliera. Does ITV not realise the agegroup that are wathching this programme not suitable for before the 9 o clock watershed. Both artists should have been required to tone it down!

i am wriing to complain about the lose of picture i am getting.it is everyday and not getting any better.changing to digital was supposed to be straight forward but is now a nightmare.i know there isn't much i can do but inform you of my disapointment of the service i am now receiving.

your cincerly

Hi,

I've never actually made a complaint in mylife ever(I am 23). However the fa-cup coverage alst was absolutely shambolic. I cannot believe I was subjected to a volkswagon advert with 2 minutes left of an FA-cup Derby, in Which the winning goal was scored.

Absoutely diabolical- bring back the bbc! SHAMEFUL

I would like to complain about the tv programme Demons - I have a 9 year old son who is petrified of going to bed since the adverts started for this programme (showing a demon under the bed) apart from the fact such a programme is shown at 7.20 and deemed suitable for family viewing - the adverts are shown during early viewing tv. Please ITV put proper family shows on at this time.

Ordered a book and they are charging me a monthly charge for a newsletter. Tried calling many times to cancel, but no one ever answers their phone. They did answer once, then put me on hold for 25 minutes and then drops!

I ordered Kevins weight loss cure book - never got it and received one I DID NOT WANT OR ASK FOR - IN FACT I MADE IT CLEAR I DID NOT WANT ANYTHING ELSE WHATSOEVER.

I would like to complain also about this show, its rubbish

sorry about my previous message, bad day it just winds me up that programs good ones get people moaning about them, i do not watch the soaps, but i do not go and complain about them on websites
i just dont watch it. change the channel, the responsibility lies with in the parents not the net works.

As much as I think what Lim said is pathetic and rude, I do agree with him. After having watched the show myself I can't see how it can be considered any more scary or adult than Doctor Who or Merlin. With the deepest respect I think you are over reacting completely, the scaryest part of the first episode was Macenzie Crook's character but even then there was humour and no particularly violent scenes.
Perhaps the trailer made it look worse, I don't know I didn't see it.
Still I'm doing a piece of coursework using this text for media and your complaint is something that could prove useful>
Thanks :)

Ali Shut up

for the sake of your children let them watch this

WARNING! WARNING! THIS WAS DESIGNED TO RIP YOU OFF OF SERVICES THAT YOU NEVER USE OR MIGHT FORGET TO CANCEL ...

I also bought the book but never even logged in to use the Foreclosure service so didnt really have access to the online system. If this company was really honest, then they would only activate and charge your credit card if you actually used their service. Instead they just charge you hoping that those who forget to cancel the service will get charge 29.95 a month. So, in your busy schedule you could get charged a few months and they claim that they are not responsible that we consumers didnt call to cancel the service. ISNT THAT A RIP OFF ? What service did they provide? NOTHING ! you dont login, then you dont get any service and therefore didnt use it. A PURE SCAMMER!

We, too, requested the book and included materials for a one-time transaction. We accepted a look at the online service for at least the free period. We canceled access to the online resource within the cancellation period. Months later, we find the first charge of $29.95 for Foreclosure Services and Merchandise appearing on our credit card. A call to the only phone number I have was sent to a voicemail purportedly to receive a return call. I called during stated business hours. We are taking steps now with the credit card company to block the charging activity.

For goodness sake, make Carol get back in her box. I found her whiny voice shouting at Alastair Campbell absolutely awful. Its not her show so why does she dominate the show. We need laughter not continual ranting. Shut up Carol otherwiseyour viewing figures are going to drop!

The story line with Gary Windass is in really poor taste with him going round beating people up for not paying back money when it wasn't even his business in the first place & he seems to be a lot worse than the other guy he killed off. When are the script writers going to stop him beating up his FRIENDS & old people as this is very disturbing putting scenes like this on before 9pm! And thus making out there is nothing wrong with him. If there is a story to his violent behaviour then let it come out sooner rather than later otherwise let him get caught for killing that other loan shark & what he did to the factory & killed the girl on her wedding day! I dread to think & watch what the script writers have made him into & find it horrorfying that this is being aired when it is! I will cease to stop watching it until they get rid of him. Seriously, I think you should re-assess what you are writing & portraying to the world & kids watching this!

Pathetic storyline this week having Sinead's friend who supposedly prefers alternative treatment to conventional cancer treatment die because she came into contact with an Antivaxxer, brainwashing propaganda at it's very worst, come on Coronation Street writers, if you are going to tackle such emotive issues at least get your facts straight, I predicted this outcome as soon as the "friend" was introduced and I expect what's going to happen now is Sinead will be saved with no harm what so ever coming to her or her unborn child, I have watched Coronation Street for quite a while, light entertainment I don't mind, pushing Big Pharma's agenda I do, so it's goodbye from me.

please please get rid of liz McDonald the slag...Also Eileen ...and johnny.

I feel so strongly about Corries violent scenes on Friday 27th October. NOT NECESSARY. I have always enjoyed Coronation street since it started, but I feel that Corrie has crossed a line. I want light, funny situations, not violence. I hope this violence comes to an end, so disappointed, I couldn't bring myself to watch anymore. I have always thought Corrie different from the other soaps. Please rethink this story line. It should never have been aired early in the evening. What is next - terrorists! Can't believe the story lines at the moment.

To the crew and cast you've got a nerve by having a ninkname for EastEnders calling them deadenders take a hard look at yourselves disabled storylines and cast who can't even act who act daft Blackburn was no good to you Oates will be the same.

What happened to free speech? This guy is a great actor and involved in a great story line. A minority of sensitive viewers have spoilt it, get a life you fools.

I disagree with blackmail it is against the law and tracey barlow has gone beyond that not only did she get a way with arson but now she is blackmailing and being A bully TO NICK S GIRLFRIEND CARLY h ow would she like me to bully and blackmail her so the writers had better get the stoy line wright because I feel that david Cameroon should shut down this programme because it is teaching children to blackmail and bully their friends and family get rid of tracey barlow forever

i think the story line with Chris is really bad it is taking the mick out of people who are ill, i think they should think about there story lines before they put it on air.

Watching our two romantic leisbains, who go to Church sing in a choir, Must think something of God, you would think. But oh no whats next sister Rosie gets all the Church friends tipsy(drunk) at a party. Then the snogging starts between the church going leisbains, then the Pastor arrives in. Yes I say, imagine showing that at that time of the night. It all so wrong, who writes these things. If you did your research you would know in the Bible whats what. I am so so annoyed about that epiosode, there are going be alot of angry people and ones who will not watch you no more. Its a pure mockery to our God, what is wrong with the world today. Get your story right, do you not want to educate the world and the young children coming behind. Do you really what kids thinking this so normal going to church and girls snog each other and get drunk and don't forget have a good laugh about. No standards in your family then or for your children to come then.

The 14th of August episode, I hope there will be justice to have a bent copper setting up drugs is bad news, I do hope to see justice, at the end of the there will only be two sets of fingure prints on the drugs anybody knows that

This customersupport@itvcorporate.com is a hoax. I was dumb enough to order a set of books, however, decided it's not what I wanted and tried to return. ALL their phone # don't work, they answer and the recording states to make a selection and wait for assistance, the call is placed on hold w/elevator music for approx 17 min, then is lost. The return policy says... NO RETURN without an RA number given by customer service, but you can't get anyone on the line... so therefore, no return, no refund!

My Mom received a package in the mail from this company and never ordered the books she was sent. However, she did get billed $44.00 and now she can't reach them to complain or have them shipped back. You DO spend over 20 minutes on the phone with no response. Hoax for sure. Taking advantage of people absolutely!

I am trying to cancel my subscription before the 30 days and because I can't find a customer number no one will answer the phone.

Virtually impossible to return products. After being on hold for 20 minutes I was told a rep would call back with a reurn # in 48 hours. It shouldn't take this long to deal with a problem. I guess they figure most people will get tired of waiting!

I got the RA number but the return address was no where on their literature or box. I must cancel my debit card to prevent recurring charges.

Terrible service should be out of business you give mail order and direct mktg a bad name. Phone centers should drop you as a client.

We wish to return the three books an d newsletter. We need the authorization number to return.

We received this material 4 days ago and is not what will be of help to us as we live alone. Please cancel and refund all paid to date and future immediately.

I have been trying to contact ITV for a return authorization, and it is always the same, They do not want or do not care tio answer!
