So, I’ve started a boycott. This one’s for real, although I’m unable
to participate in it myself (I can’t afford a new phone.)
Please join me in my efforts to
Boycott Virgin Mobile USA. The company blocks twitter. That’s really the only reason.
They acknowledge that they “do not support it” and they refuse to support it, despite my unlimited plan, so,
I’m calling for a boycott!
Please Tweet this blog and join me in my efforts!
This is unacceptable =)
Thanks~

Navarr,
ReplyDeleteSorry you are having trouble accessing Twitter from your
Virgin Mobile phone.
Twitter can be accessed on your phone from the application called
"Connect by Virgin Mobile". Without knowing what phone you use, it's hard giving you explicit directions for
getting to Connect, but if you go to VirginXL and scroll down to "Cool Services", you'll see "Connect by
Virgin Mobile". That will get you on Twitter, Facebook, etc.
Also, if you have a newer
phone (like the Rumor 2), accessing Connect might be a menu item. Just press Menu, and scroll to the icon
with the an arrow pointing to the left. That's Connect.
I hope this helps, and if you
have any questions feel free to post a reply.
Thanks!

Yeah, if I want to pay an additional price every single day.
ReplyDeleteTwitter
*SHOULD* work via Text. The fact that your company is blocking that is why I'm calling for boycott.
Hi Navarr,
ReplyDeleteI run product management and development of our
messaging services here at Virgin Mobile USA. I'm sorry to read you're having trouble with Twitter on your
phone. We do in fact support Twitter over SMS. Our customers send and receive millions of SMS to and from
Twitter every month.
If you shoot me your phone number to my email address, we can try
to trouble shoot for you.
Best regards,
Paul
