The Channel 4 website is disgraceful.

There's not been 1 news update today on there.

Before the series started, they said they would be investing more into the website and giving us more video clips and news.

But it's awful this year! :sad:

C4 have behaved disgustingly this year tbh.

While you won't benefit anyone, let alone BB as a brand, by boycotting the show and not watching it, my advice is don't put any money in their pocket by paying to vote in BB or anyother show they try and sell you.

Say screw them the same way they have said screw you.

C4 have forgotten they are a public based service industry that relies on our good will to mkake their money. I think it's time to remind them.

Totally agree 1 news update today. Brian Belo is in charge and he couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery. Rubbish website. :bored:

They would just delete it as 'off topic'.

They've put 1 story up now!

But they faked the time by saying they put it up at 15:15. It wasn't up then.

It will probably be something like

It is more shocking at the fact they cancelled live feed because they had SO many updates on their website! They said there was no need for live feed when there are more highlights on the internet.

Not yet. This is what I said:

I am writing to complain about the pitiful Big Brother website offered to fans this year.

Following the axing of the 24 hour live feed on E4, Channel 4 promised fans that the website would be 'better than ever' this year.

Unfortunately, visiting today I noticed that the main news feed on the homepage contained absolutely no updates about events in the Big Brother house.

In previous series there was round-the-clock updates keeping fans updated with all the news from the house. Fast forward to 2009 and we're being fobbed off with stories on Brian Belo's website takeover, how to get involved with BBLB or how to upload a profile picture.

Considering that there is no live feed this year it is absolutely unacceptable and insulting that Channel 4 continues to treat their fans like this.
