C4 Suffer Text Voting Glitch
Following hot on the heels of the various voting scams, Channel
4 appear to have scored an own goal with a glitch in their
text voting service this week.
On Tuesday afternoon Big Brother fans were registering votes
via their mobile phones, but received multiple confirmations
by return when they had voted just once.
They've also been receiving confirmations of votes for contestants
that they did not wish to vote for. One puzzled fan said,
"I sent 4 votes for ADELE but received replies thanking
me for voting for JONNY. I hope that my votes won't go towards
Jonny's percentage."
Other fans sent several text votes for Jade, but received
confirmations for Jonny, Kate and Adele; everyone but the
housemate they want out!
About the mix-up, Channel 4 have reported that due to massive
demand when the four nominees were announced on Tuesday, an
error caused some users to receive multiple confirmations
of their vote.
Regarding the issue of whether votes have actually gone to
the wrong contestants or not, Channel 4 has assured us that
every vote has been registered correctly.
However, fans remain sceptical and are livid that such an
error could occur. "This doesn't help the rumours that
the voting is fixed," said one angry fan.
