Got the Virgimedia Phone tickle?

Great! a tickle on the service I care least for.

Seriously though, are the extras "£6 worth":
1. Permanent until they decide to un-tickle
2. For a certain period, then ending
3. For a certain period, then charged unless cancelled? - in which case, I'd rather not bother!

How were you tickled? Is it a phone call, letter or do you need to log in to my virgin?

Re: Got the Virgimedia Phone tickle?

Email, title "Have a bunch of home phone add-ons on us",
From: Virgin Media theteam(at)mailing.virginmedia.com

£6 worth of home phone addons - cheaper international rates, calls to mobiles and free calls to 0845/0870

So I guess that's Talk International, Talk Mobile and Talk 08.

Already checked the tickle FAQ "can you swap?"
http://tickle.virginmedia.com/faqs/

Looks likew you are notified by email, or post if you don't allow email.

http://tickle.virginmedia.com/ - Or you can check your tickles (NB. they do expire)
H'mm, wonder if I could get a seperate tickle on mobile, or was that the topup & get 25 free mins

Re: Got the Virgimedia Phone tickle?

Where is it you set your communications preferences, ie receiving marketing emails. I can't even remember what mine is set to or even if I can change it!

Re: Got the Virgimedia Phone tickle?

One other thing worrying, does accepting the tickle mess up a loyalty deal?

Re: Got the Virgimedia Phone tickle?

I haven't been tickled, that's it I am handing in my notice and leaving. How dare they not tickle me. I have been tickled by the best of them. I think its prejudice. I will write a stern letter to Richard Branson...........what.........oh.......it has not finished yet.............(wonders off whistling)

I would hope they wouldn't send it to a customer that isn't eligible for it

I never seem to receive emails from VM but occasionally get contacted through the post. As far as I am aware I haven't said at any time that I am unwilling to be contacted by email. I have been into "My Account" but can't seem to see anywhere to do with contact preferences. Could someone point me in the right direction? After all, I don't want to miss out on the possibility of a free tickle, especially at my age!
