There's little more enjoyable than phone carriers carping in each other's directions.
The latest was a warning on Wednesday to T-Mobile customers. The message: Your service might not work on Thursdays.
It came, astonishingly, from Verizon's Vice President of corporate Communications, Jeffrey Nelson.On Twitter he reacted to a reported outage suffered by T-Mobile customers in some areas last Thursday.
"MAJOR OUTAGE? Ditch T-Mobile if you want to make a call & get data on, say, Thursdays. @Verizon. We work every day," he tweeted.
