Is MeTV legit?
LegitFor classic television, MeTV is a real network, seen on local stations' extra channels and on services like Philo and Fubo, yet what airs depends on the station in your area. It can replace a MeTV show with its own sports, news or weather, so a favourite can disappear from its usual slot.
What we checked
- National network since December 2010
- Owned by Weigel Broadcasting
- Head office in Chicago, Illinois
Watch out for
- A favourite show replaced by local sports, news or weather on the station that carries MeTV in your area.
- Shows dropped or moved when the lineup changes on Labor Day, New Year's Day and Memorial Day.
- Episodes shortened to make room for commercials, so scenes you remember are missing.

How do I contact MeTV customer service?
MeTV takes viewer messages through the contact section on metv.com and through its social accounts, and the network itself is run by Weigel Broadcasting. Our data holds no phone number or email address for MeTV, and we do not publish contact details we cannot verify.
Before you write, work out whose problem it actually is. MeTV is a network: the picture that reaches your television is carried by a local station and delivered by your antenna, cable, satellite or streaming provider. Reception faults, a channel that vanished from your line up and audio dropouts belong to those companies. Programming, the schedule and the advertising load are MeTV's own. Series dropped without notice? Start here: we open your case and keep coaching you.
Why do I keep losing the MeTV signal?
Sound that cuts out, a picture that breaks up or a channel that disappears for minutes at a time is nearly always a local transmission or reception problem rather than something the network does nationally. Write down the exact date, time and how long it lasted, then test where the fault sits: if other channels from the same source stay clean, the problem is with the station carrying MeTV or the sub channel it rides on, not with your television.
Report it to the local station and to your cable, satellite or streaming provider with those times attached, because a pattern of timestamps is what gets an engineer to look. In the US, repeated transmission problems can also be raised with the FCC, which licenses the stations themselves. Put the dates and the times in your complaint here, where other viewers who lost the same channel in the same area can back your case up.
Why does MeTV keep changing its schedule?
Classic television networks license their programming in blocks for a fixed term. When a license ends, is renegotiated or is picked up by a rival network, the schedule moves and titles disappear, often with no announcement at all. Seasonal line ups, marathons and holiday programming shift things further, which is why a series you watched every night can be gone by Monday.
The schedule published on metv.com and the guide from your provider are the versions worth trusting: printed listings and third party guide data run behind. Programming is also one of the few things viewer mail genuinely influences, so name the show, the slot it used to hold and what you want back rather than complaining in general terms. A complaint filed through our complaint process adds weight to that: we bring it to MeTV through emails, social media and paper complaint letters.
How do I complain about MeTV commercials?
Two different problems hide behind this one question. If the issue is how much advertising runs, or the same spot repeating in every break, that is MeTV's own advertising sales and the contact section on metv.com is where to say so. Be specific: the hours you watch, how long the breaks run and how the load compares with the program itself.
If the issue is loudness, meaning adverts that are noticeably louder than the show around them, that is regulated in the US. The CALM Act sets the standard and the FCC accepts complaints about loud commercials, but it needs the channel, the provider, the date and the time of day to do anything with your report. Send it to both, because the network and the regulator each handle a different half of the problem.
What do people complain about most at MeTV?
So far consumers reported 62 complaints about MeTV here, with an average rating of 2.0 out of 5. The themes repeat: the same episodes and the same handful of series cycling round too often, a heavy advertising load with the same spots on repeat, sound and picture dropping out during broadcasts, and long running favorites being pulled from the schedule without warning.

What happens after I submit my complaint?
Your complaint gets its own public page on Complain.biz and we get to work: we bring it to the attention of MeTV through emails, social media, paper complaint letters and other tools at our disposal.
And we stay with it after you file. Our trained AI opens a case file for you and keeps coaching: what to reply, when to push again, and how to escalate if nothing happens.
Can other consumers help me with my MeTV complaint?
Yes. We have an active community of consumers, and complaints here are public: people who ran into the same problem with MeTV can give you advice or back you up with their own story. A complaint with a community behind it is much harder to overlook.
