Virgin Mobile has been left mystified by a glitch that has prompted its call handling system to falsely notify customers that one of it call centres has been closed.
Late today Virgin Mobile customers who contacted the company’s iPhone customer service line were notified that its call centre had been closed due to a “significant outage”.
On attempting to reach the call centre customers are usually connected to the iPhone hotline based in Australia. However customers who tried to connect to the call centre received the following message from Virgin’s mechanical answering service:
“Due to a significant technical outage we’ve had to close our contact centre. We are working to resolve this issue in the next few hours.”
The message then continued advising customers to try the company’s web site for information.
A spokeswoman for Virgin Mobile, a brand owned by Optus in Australia, said the company “just couldn’t understand why” the system kept sending out the message. It assured Australian IT the call centre was operational.
“They can’t see any reason why (it’s playing the false message) but they’ll keep looking into it because they don’t want anyone else having that experience,” the spokeswoman said. |

Apple has just added Virgin Mobile to their list on their website of official carriers. No real surprises here since Virgin shares the same network as Optus. Last year, Virgin Mobile did offer the 3G, except the carrier's logo and link were not posted on the Apple website. That's now been fixed. The link on the website leads to a list of Virgin stores. You might also want to bookmark their Apple iPhone page. |
