Upgrade package not working

Every time I go to upgrade package or see what offers are available I get the message 'you are not eligible for this particular offer'. I currently have TV and phone and just want to add broadband on top.

  • ? VM doesn't do standalone TV or phone so you must already have broadband. Are you able to clarify?

      I have the basic mixit TV package with a phone line. I recently recontacted too and on the contract summary under broadband it says 'free TV data connection' so think that means it technically have internet for on demand video on my TV but no 'actual' broadband doesn't it?

        Hi again  bretta 

        That  makes perfect sense to me, although I must admit I've never seen the actual wording. 

        The  'you are not eligible for this particular offer'.message you are seeing  when trying to add on broadband might be because you've just recently recontracted, or it might be a quirk  of VM's systems since you don't have a paid broadband connection.

        I would suggest that it might be best to speak to retentions (thinking of leaving) since adding broadband will lose any current discounts that you've just negotiated.
