...o2 what are you thinking about???
But that is what currently happens. O2 rewards certain "Community members" every month, even if they have advised others to move to another service provider. That aside, I did not suggest that anyone get paid whether via the reward system or on a more substantive basis. I just had the temerity to suggest that the Community shoulod be looking at better ways to provide the service that it does - but now I am wishing I hadn't bothered my keyboard.
@Anonymous wrote:That is a good point @Anonymous ! Who are the cows? Honestly I don't know?! You introduced them in your post so I assumed you would know...oh well...maybe one day we will find out!
I did indeed - had forgotten that.
But I had in mind "sacred cows" that Community Members are quite afraid to confront, as distinct from your "poor cows" which conjures up quite a different image altogether.

A distinction without a difference I would say.
Oh come on, it's obvious to anyone with a masters degree in physics and an IQ of at least 725691 what rosadosc is saying, it's not our fault if you don't come up to the level expected here.
She says that the community doesn't aim to provide a SERVICE of advice, that is to say an ongoing commitment with an obligation to have a certain level of service to satisfy regulatory bodies and shareholders of O2.
Instead we exist to help people in an unofficial, but usually superior, manner, and the sheer number of people and combined intellegence ensures that that happens.
Which makes perfect sense.
After all, people with an account query need help from O2. People who want the best deal are better off with advice from people who know the whole UK phone market.
Is that as clear as mad now?
By the way, I am enjoying this Gerry vs Rosadosc thread
And I didn't order a sim!!!

I understand that you are trying to amuse @Anonymous@ and I have no problem at all with that but lest there be any doubt in anyone's mind let me make it very very plain that I do not regard the discussion between me and @Anonymous as a competition or confrontation of any sort, as the use of the term "vs" might suggest. It is rather a discussion between two very intelligent people ( well, ok, one intelligent person and me) with a robust exchange of views from which I hope we are both learning. I do hope you regard it in the same light @Anonymousbut if not I apologise and would be more than happy to withdraw from the conversation.
