Navarr's Tech Side The Technical Side of my Life

Hi Navarr,

I 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

Yeah, if I want to pay an additional price every single day.

Twitter *SHOULD* work via Text. The fact that your company is blocking that is why I'm calling for boycott.

Navarr,

Sorry 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!

SA @ Virgin Mobile
