I called around 4th Oct to inform them that I plan to cancel my contract shortly after the 14th. I switched over to another provider officially on 22nd October and today I received a final bill of £64 ...

Telecoms contracts in the UK - VM included - are not fixed-term ones that end on a particular date, the logical extension of that would be service automatically ceasing.

What you have is a rolling service contract with a minimum-term. Until & unless you explicitly give 30days notice to cancel, both your service and billing continues.

Separately to that, if & when you give that cancellation notice, your billing will continue as normal until your services are disconnected. Within 45 days of that point, you'll receive a final bill that - in most cases - will have credits on there for unused service.

What therefore matters in your case is.. what was the date your services were terminated? What was the date on the bill you've just received?
