In June 2020 (after Metro Manila was placed in general community quarantine), the network announced that the rebrand would be pushed through on July 20, but on July 4, the network officially cancelled the change because of netizens' adverse reaction to the upcoming rebrand as well as the opinions of the network's loyal viewers and fans. Viewers complained that it would have confused them and potentially diminished viewership. Because of this, the plugs of One TV (both on-air and online) were later pulled out of circulation.
