Post subject:  Reprimand for X Factor vote error

Friday, 20 April 2007

ITV's X Factor has escaped a fine for overcharging viewers by £200,000 for votes cast in its most recent series.

A total of 1.3 million red button votes throughout the series were mistakenly charged at 50p instead of 35p.

Premium phone line watchdog Icstis has reprimanded ITV for the error, but will not impose a fine because the show's producers apologised and gave refunds.

Icstis is currently investigating several other programmes after a string of allegations about TV phone votes.
