Re: Virgin aims to tickle loyal customers.
Just recieved a letter telling me I'd got the home phone tickle inluding 250mins of inclusive calls to 0878 and 0845 numbers per month,which i admit will come in quite useful.Also sent me a nice satchet of drinking chocolate.

Re: Virgin aims to tickle loyal customers.
Just got a email telling me I have the sky anytime tickle due to being on XL. Thought everyone had that.

Yes, but not everyone will know about it. Part of the Tickle thing is to point people in the direction of stuff they already have but may not know about

Re: Virgin aims to tickle loyal customers.
I just got the Sky Anytime Tickle as well. I hope this is not the only Tickle I can expect as I am totally underwhelmed so far.

Do Virgin monitor what your are watching? Can Virgin tell if you watch On Demand or Catch up TV? If so can't they tell if you've already watched something from SKY Anytime? I don't really want a tickle from Virgin telling me about stuff I already know I have.
Judging by the posts on this thread, there hasn't been too many people who have received a tickle that brought a smile to their face. Wasn't that the whole point of the tickles?

Re: Virgin aims to tickle loyal customers.
My tickles, all for my landline.
Talk Mobile £2 add-on call any UK mobile network for 10p a minute.
Talk International £2 add-on calls costing FROM 10p Minute.
Talk 08 £2 add-on 250 Minutes per month of free 0870 and 0845 numbers.
Bonus tickle – Directory Enquiries.
I have only ever in my life called a mobile number once, and that call lasted less than a minute.
I have never made an International call from my landline.
I average one or two 08xxx numbers a year.
I have never called directory enquiries since it became a ripoff.
Upon enquiring about changing my bundle VM CS all assumed that I had added the extras and added £6 to the total bundle price, so beware Greeks bearing gifts.
Am I happy with my tickles? Ecstatic.
Now I had better get back to the workhouse and join the other wretches, gruel is about to be served and that greedy bugger Oliver will be asking them if he can have my gruel if I am late.

Re: Virgin aims to tickle loyal customers.
Ok own up who have been given a nice new Tv and a Tivo box, as in the video. Or is it like those Readers Digest draws with names and pictures of winners but no one know of anyone has one anything.

Re: Virgin aims to tickle loyal customers.
Just had the phone tickle. The 08 package of 250 minutes a month will come in handy. It'll save all that trawling around on "saynoto 0870" to find a free number.
The rest will have no effect. I have plenty of included minutes on my mobile that I never use. I have an access number for overseas calls that is between 1 and 2p per minute and I've never used directory enquiries.
Thanks anyway

That page is actually wrong.
It is actually 23 HD channels at no extra monthly cost.
