Frankly that is twitter for you.... not a nice place to be very often. The standards of behaviour and of CS on twitter are very poor and produce results like this one...

Mind you should think VM staff are very stressed atm but that is no excuse for abuse or stupid humour.

Lighten up HM

I understand where HM is coming from. I used for work for another Virgin company and if we'd spoken to our customers in such a way there would have been major repercussions. Virgin are very protective of their customer relations record and invest a lot in protecting that image.

Although that comment is accurate and made is out of frustration the last thing VM want at the moment is to wind customers up further. Never ridicule a customer even if you think they deserve it, as you are representing your employer not yourself. This is something VM can fully control unlike the BT situation.

I find VM's attitude on Twitter appalling! I think the person involved will be disciplined.
Moving on... let's hope we all get better news in the following week. :)

Yes, i am feeling optimistic for my Virgin cousins

You will get BT sport (my guess is next week), though only VIP will get it for a reduced fee.
XL will get it for regular price.

And maybe a sky channel as an add on bonus.

Of course, I could be wrong. :D

Oh, and yes, i thought the twitter comment was poor taste, from customer service.

Not their place to crack jokes

Well there's 13 days to start of the PL season and one would hope it would be sorted by then.

Yes positivity is always better then negativity John because generally good things come to those who are patience and thus don't succumb to the temptations of the dark side.:)

Its unfortunate for him that their social management console adds his initials the end of the post!

Where is this optimism coming from? Have I missed something?

The only optimisim I have is the fact we're saved from Michael Owen as a sports analyst on BT sports ...

When did this cease to be a useful update thread?

Well lets hope MB next week has some more updates and hopefully better news on the BT Sports saga.
