So what do you call a voicemail bug, Laryngitis? We ask only because One2One was hit by a bug this week that put some of its customers’ voicemail facilities out of action. One customer, who complained to the telecoms company, claimed to have been told that a virus had hit services. But One2One was adamant it was only a bug in the technology. A One2One representative said: "It’s not a virus. We are extending our voicemail platform, and these things sometimes happen. "It was just a bug." ®
