This is absolutely disgraceful.
Many people want to evict Kris, but they put the wrong phone number for him on the website. Instead they put on Marcus' number for him.
I don't like Marcus, but this is a scam from Channel 4 and a fix which is breaching broadcasting regulations.
I have complained to Ofcom about this because the voting % will now be slightly biased in Kris' favour.
I hope Channel 4 reset the number and give a full refund to everyone who has voted, otherwise I will make another complaint to Ofcom regarding Channel 4's lack of action.
thats because the goverment would have made them
they dont want people talking down their pc multi cultural society
i have no doubt that marcus will go no matter who gets the most votes

It's a sham from Big Brother, an absolute fix.
They should be fined for this latest scandal.

Have you complained to Ofcom about it?
Why would big brother bend the rules to get Kris up for eviction, and then purposely get the numbers wrong?
It was just a mistake and will make no difference to who goes on friday.
Kris is a gonner.

It's good to see you putting in a complaint that's actually worth a damn.
And this is not because I like Marcus either. I hate him.

BB also put the wrong eviction number for every other nominee. This isn't a conspiracy, it's laziness.

Thats why its a good idea to just let the HM's vote each other out. No way to put a fix on that and with the money saved they could bring back the live feed. The money they charge does not cover the entire cost of running all those phone lines.
do you have ofcom on speed dial?
Im phoning OFCOM to complain also..about Gavin who seems to only post about complaining to OFCOM.
I know strictly speaking the internet and forums are nothing to do with OFCOM but hey Gavin seems to think you can use OFCOM to complain about anything in life so I thought I would also waste some of the OFCOM funding and follow his wonderful example. .

I don't really feel that you complaing to Ofcom as often as you do is justified but on this ocassion I do think you were right to do so. after all people are losing money here.

I hate Kris and he better be evicted this Friday, but if it was just on the website (which I doubt a lot of people look at anyway), then it shouldn't matter too much. Besides, there's 3 days of voting left anyway, so a small error on a website article isn't going to do much.
Gavin guess what! Marcus hugged Noirin :shocked: i think you should complain to ofcom about this horrible horrible act of sexual harrasment!! :wink:

while i agree with everyone basically saying this guy is overreacting i think that it is a fix to try keep kris in because of the fact marcus isnt afraid to stick up for the fact that bb was wrong in the whole sree incident.
its silly because everyone has been mimicking freddie/halfwit accent for weeks and nothings been done bout it

So why would they not have left it at a marcus vs freddie eviction then if they want marcus gone so bad?
Sounds a lot less elaborate than what happened.
Also marcus was given a warning not for imitating sree but for threatening him,he deserved more than a warning imo..

Funnily enough on this occasion OFCOM is exactly the right place to complain about phone vote misdemeanours.

It was only incorrect on one source of the number, the correct number was given out during BBLB, etc.
Channel 4 were made aware of the incorrect number being put out and changed it as soon as they had confirmed the error.
They will be making an announcement either tonight or tomorrow about what actions they have taken.
Dont think Ofcom will be taking too much notice of those idiotic complaints, because the first action that should be taken in cases like this is to inform the broadcaster you have the problem with and allow them todeal with the problem, only after being unhappy with their actions can a valid complaint be made to offcom.
Gavin have you ever thought of Meditation or relaxation exercises to help rid you of the Victor Meldrew Syndrome you appear to be suffering from?
Alternatively you could try getting a life mate
