No seriously, trust me this is a typical VM move, decide to do something, no doubt ignore any and all advice from the technical people - in fact fire them for contradicting senior management, crash on regardless and then run up against the hard wall of reality.

Merging two support forums together, well, I’m sure it's not a trivial issue, but it’s been, what, how many months now? Surely both VM and O2 did some degree of due diligence before embarking on said merger? Yes/no?

I’m going to hazard a guess, in a cost-cutting exercise both VM and O2 managed to get rid of all the senior people who actually knew how the systems worked. And now they are stuck with people who lack the skills and knowledge to implement it.

ON the original VM forums, they stated, back in I think February, a temporary pause while they migrate to a new platform - now seven months later and nothing. Seriously what does that say about VM and O2’s competence?
