Lots of very unhappy xfm listeners, hating the change. Shame for them and can understand how they may be feeling but as I replied to one, that's how it has felt for many of us for the past 3 years!!
Im an ex-xfm Manchester fan, listened to moyles this morning didn't like it, I know it was his first show but xfm Manchester is no more radio x is now a national station instead of a local station.Tim and Jim were much better, some of the competitions they did where awesome, a particular highlight for me was meat of the week on a Friday, rest your meat once you pull it out and fat means flavour, also reporting on the mancunian hole, the cubicle,
Also seems to be a massive increase in adverts in the last month or so.
ETA - I just remembered, I WOKE UP TO A GIRLS ALLOWED SONG WTF...

Out of interest, a lot of us had nowhere to go when Moyles' show ended on Radio 1 and it was widely predicted that those in the 25-40ish bracket were left out in the cold. Did many of you find a new home?
I, as predicted, haven't listened to the Radio full-stop on my commute and have moved over to podcasts for the journey. Unfortunately I don't have DAB in the car and reception is shonky at best on my new commute through a valley, so Radio X is out of the question.

I never did. I channel hopped, radio 2, heart,kiss, local Bristol, even radio1 again in desperation (stuck to it when Mills was on breakfast cover) finally Sam FM, which was OK music wise. That was in the car, in the house it was the Absolute stations, heart (or on occasion Triple J- Australian station)I, as predicted, haven't listened to the Radio full-stop on my commute and have moved over to podcasts for the journey.

For the first time in years I had the radio one instead of BBC Breakfast. My car doesn't have DAB etc but I have the app on my phone but my new shifts mean I will be at home mist mornings, so not a real issue.
I just installed the Radio X app which wants to send me push notifications. It has no option other than 'OK' but says they can be turned off in the Settings. Erm.....nowhere in Settings to turn off so uninstalling the app. I don't WANT push notifications for competitions or artist info etc; why do they insist on bundling this crap? It's counterproductive and the fastest way to get me to uninstall an app...

One or two are quite fit! Not sure I rate their singing ability though. Girls Aloud, that is.
Chris was saying that girls ARE aloud

I pretty much stopped listening to broadcast radio and moved to podcasts and Spotify. If I'm in the car and can't get those, I just flick around the stations.We do need DAB / internet radio coverage in cars to improve though.

I did exactly the same!! Annoying wasn't it?!Let us know if you find a way to switch them off.
I tested a PAYG Three sim in a spare phone today connected to the 'aux-in' of my 2000ish era car using tunein radio. Didn't drop out on me once, whereas my company O2 supplied mobiles 3/4G would go to GPRS as soon as I left the city.
It streamed high quality at around 1mb a minute so equivalent to 128kb/sec, not bad at all.
Really pleased to have Chris back.

Settings > Notifications > Scroll down to the Radio X app and turn them off there.
