Re: Cancellation Payments Rip-Off

Returns box finally turned up on Christmas Eve afternoon after several weeks delay.  Virgin started chasing me yesterday (Boxing Day) by text and email to return the kit. 

Packed it up, have just walked to my nearest Yodel shop with the heavy box.  They won't take it - say they can't take any Yodel parcels because there are no drivers collecting, no idea when they'll be able to.  So I've had to bring the heavy parcel back home again.

Okay Virgin Media, so what do I do now?

What I really wanted to do was dump it somewhere rather than carry it back home, not knowing when I will ever be able to get rid of it!  Perhaps that's part of your cancellation process - make it so difficult for people to send stuff back that they give up and bin it, then you charge them for it.

But I didn't, I've still got it.  So could you please tell me how I can arrange to have it collected.  It is not reasonable or acceptable for me to be expected to keep taking it to the Yodel shop in the hope they'll eventually take it, all the while being chased by Virgin for not having sent it back.
