Difficulty contacting VM to confirm installation date

Hi,

just taken out VM broadband and have scheduled an engineer, however I realised that I had selected the wrong date and subsequently re-scheduled. Today I received the contract which shows the original date as the start date of the contract, not the re-scheduled date. I have confirmation that the engineer is coming on the new date, I just need to confirm that the original date is cancelled and a new contract will be issued, but can't get to speak with anyone to confirm this and the chatbot thing will not get me the answer.

Thanks for your attention

    Hello Jones420

    Thanks for posting in regards to the confusion caused by the contract showing the older date for installation, we appreciate you taking the time to raise this via the forums and welcome to the community.

    From what you have advised, it appears the original contract has been sent to you again following the change of date for the installation. As with all accounts, charges don't start until the service is installed and active so if the date has been pushed back by yourself, this would be the date it would start.

    Thanks,

    will I get a new contract, as I was able to bring the installation forward?

    Contract date is not the start date for billing. Billing starts when the service is up and running. I doubt you will get a new contract, as the date is rather meanless.
