Bit of a ****-up by Virgin.
Am I going to get 30,000 odd emails? 150 so far.

Virgin sent out an email about account changes without using BCC and somebody replied to it.................
 
You're lucky, near 400 but some quite amusing (the ones that i can quote) to read whilst I'm working. Of course every reply only makes the issue worse.

The blogs have started: http://allgoneballs.blogspot.co.uk/2014 ... orrow.html

Ive never been so popular, I’m normally quite a lonely person, whoopee!!


xxxxxxx

I am embarrassed to admit, I am loving some of the banter. Thank you for cheering up a pretty appalling cock up!

Best wishes

Both!


I'd just like to say how brilliantly chilled my two greyhounds are about the whole thing, even though their supper's overdue and they had to listen to the truly ghastly Virgin marketing while on hold for 20 mins and then a fractious exchange.


Just to add another worthwhile cause for those of you who love dogs or are thinking of getting a dog… Greyhounds are the best, so sweet tempered and perfect couch-potatoes!! Visit http://www.grwe.com to see some of the hounds in need of homes or make a donation to GRWE's New Life Appeal for old dogs http://www.justgiving.com/GRWEnewlife


Thank you and Happy Easter everyone!


Oh, yes, almost forgot…. according to their unhelpful desk Virgin is aware of the stuff up and the engineers will have it fixed soon. When? 'A few hours' so get ready for an evening of communicating with hundreds - thousands? - of strangers!

Do you like it hot with the butter all melted or cooled down and bit chewy?
Let me know your thoughts on this

I have just had to delete in excess of 300 emails (which is increasing) from random strangers about the google mail issue and as a result of which email has been disclosed to other providers which are now sending me emails. I am referring this matter to the ICO and I am taking legal advice as I feel my confidential information has been compromised and I am now
 
Peter - we're doing all we can but our engineers have just started watching the Everton v Sunderland game so please bear with us.


In the meantime please feel free to let us know if you prefer green or blue socks.


Thanks

Who's for starting a class action for data protection act violation.

Spammers of the world rejoice.

I find that grossly unfair of you, to say 'some of them are good though .. Unrepeatable things said about Richard Branson etc.' I'm with sky (broadband and phone only) so I won't ever get to know what the good ones are, I especially want to know about Branson! So please, please, please repeat them :lol: :lol: :lol: I could do with a good laugh.
