Now come on, den. Many times you've complained about VM's "woeful lack of communication". But when they do exactly that, it's a "cheap gimmick".

You can't have it both ways.

Yes l hold my hands up to complaining in the past about their communication but they have improved in that area in the last year and l give them due praise for that.

Re: Virgin aims to tickle loyal customers.

No tickles for me and that just for you offer, when i moved house, they stopped me transferring it and signing up again, they offer 0870 calls as part of Talk Unlimited, but what companies use 0870 numbers, they are migrating to 0844 and 0871/0872 numbers for revenue share in some cases 0901 numbers.

Think ofcom made a mistake stopping companies using 0845 and 0870 numbers for profit share as 0871 numbers are more expensive and companies tend to keep you on hold a lot longer when you ring these numbers, i've noticed!

Re: Virgin aims to tickle loyal customers.

I got my first decent tickle last night.

Whole street invited to a comedy night with free drinks/nibbles with 'top' UK comedian.

Tickles aren't just about rewards, they are also there to tell you about promotions and free-views.

No-one is forcing you to watch it.
