What the hell has COVID 19 got to do with contacting virgin?
You suggest I sit scrolling up and down or get my iPad on my knee all night
ready to change channels, **bleep**
Seriously? What has COVID 19 got to do with me contacting Virgin?
Well you see, far from whatever is floating round your head, the call handling system and getting a remote dispatched relies on PEOPLE. There is no magic remote fairy, expressing your wish for a new one results in, under normal circumstances, people doing things. Less people, as some are quarantined (like you) means less things getting done. I understand thats a difficult concept to grasp, but I assure you its true. Ernie, hes PEOPLE too. PEOPLE who give up their spare time to offer useful, practical advice to other PEOPLE.
Now I understand that placing your IPAD on a horizontal surface while you are NOT changing channels is equivalent to one of the trials of Hercules. But I dont really think it was being offered as a permanent solution. More a workaround until stuff calms down a bit, theres food back in the shops and we all stop dying, cos you know, dead people dont dispatch remotes. The lazy **bleep**ers.
