Had an email today saying that we have 22 more channels. Where are they especially Tastemade?

You're probably meaning the channels in the list here...

Thank you but I  know all that. I cannot see a channel for Tastemade.

Where have VM mentioned Tastemade?

Tastemade TV is not a broadcast channel & is not licenced by OFCOM in the UK. The only way you can watch the channel is online or via streaming apps, not through any UK TV platform.

Thank you, so it was very wrong of Virgin to claim that they had given us more channels.

They have given you more channels, but they cannot give you a channel that would be illegal for them to broadcast.

As I said before, the channel does not have a broadcast licence from the UK regulator.

Can you scan the email & show us where Virgin specifically mention this channel. It is available on Amazon Prime, so if you have a subscription with Amazon through your V6 box you can get it.

Virgin Media sent out emails stating that Tastemade is available on Demand from the 8th feb, the also posted press releases stating the same, unfortunately Tastemade cannot be found On Demand

Can you scan a copy of that email and post it on here please?

And a link to a press release?

Just google Tastemade on Virgin Media and you will find them
