@virginmedia what’s the issue with login to VM and sky sports app on iPad? The verification emails are not coming through

@restisents @richardosman Who would be your dream picks for a “House of Olympic Games” special?

[Keith Pollard @keithpollard]

@RestIsPolitics @RoryStewartUK @campbellclaret @MillionaireUK So… @campbellclaret reckoned that France launched Skylab?

@RestIsPolitics @RoryStewartUK @campbellclaret On an ancient recording of @MillionaireUK (not his greatest performance), Alistair’s wife mentions that he’s a creative genius when it comes to Valentines Day gifts. What’s the secret?

What are the real costs of medical tourism? On January 17th at midday EST (5pm UK), I'll be joining
@istackpole on a webinar to discuss the costliest part of medical tourism - the complications that arise when the medical traveller returns home. Book now https://t.co/AJIrOEMJEP

[Keith Pollard @keithpollard]

@PlacidWay “In the UK, the cost is also considerably higher, usually ranging from £30,000 to £35,000.”
INCORRECT AND MISLEADING.
It’s around £12,500.

@virginmedia That is not the issue. The settings in Outlook and on IOS are correct. Despite entering the correct password, the mail server does not respond. On IOS, the response is no password entered… but there is and it’s correct.

@virginmedia It took 19 days to restore my historic email (7 July). 7 days later on 14 July no email again! Called support daily and still not resolved. Today, I get access via Webmail, but no access via Outlook or ipad/iphone etc. Told I must pay to resolve the issue. Really???

[Keith Pollard @keithpollard]

@N2P_Podcast @Baddiel ... and implying? Suggest you tweet more carefully or you'll find yourself on the wrong end of a defamation claim for reputational damage.

[Keith Pollard @keithpollard]

@virginmedia So….. you’re saying it’s going to take 4 weeks to restore my historic emails. Clearly, keeping a customer happy who’s been with you for 16 years is not a priority?

[Keith Pollard @keithpollard]

In the BBC’s review of 75 years of the NHS, I was asked for my view on why Brits are travelling abroad for elective surgery. In simple terms… NHS waiting lists and lower treatment costs!

Hear from Keith Pollard, LaingBuisson Consultant & Report Author, on BBC Radio 5 Live as he discusses medical travel. 🌍

[Keith Pollard @keithpollard]

@AndyRFCCharman @WhichUK Same here. A VM customer for 16 years… that’s a lot of historic email that I’m missing.

[Keith Pollard @keithpollard]

The biggest employer in the UK, announces a workforce plan “for the first time in 75 years”. If you were running a major business, dependent on its staff to deliver services, wouldn’t a workforce plan be a part of your business strategy and be reviewed and updated every year?

[Caroline Lucas @CarolineLucas]

13 years late we finally get the Tories’ #NHS workforce plan after a decade of deliberate underfunding. Infuriating to hear Steve Barclay casually ignore responsibility for current crisis & avoid obvious need to pay existing staff properly so they don’t leave #r4today

[Keith Pollard @keithpollard]

@virginmedia Two days later and still no resolution. Yesterday, you promised a fix by 4pm today. And that didn’t happen. What is the latest expectation?

[Keith Pollard @keithpollard]

@virginmedia When will I have access to my historic emails? Issue arose on 19 June. Yesterday, promised a resolution by 4pm today. Still not resolved!

[Keith Pollard @keithpollard]

@virginmedia @HeavenlyMalbec “continuing to work flat out to restore historic emails into the inboxes of a small proportion of accounts.”
So… when can I expect historic email restored???
