Re: O2 SIM Bill issues caused by VM

I have exactly the same problem, it is sending me mad. I made my fourth call to VM and o2 this morning it lasted over an hour until I gave up in frustration. I phoned o2 after receiving a letter from them complaining I hadn't paid my bill of £55 and threatening me with debt collectors if I din't cough up. I hadn't received a bill! I was shoved from pillar to post from 02 back to vm etc etc ad infinitum. O2 said they couldn't take my money as I had no account with so I was transferred to VM. They transferred me back to O2 etc etc. Back and forwards I went until, after over an hour, the agent said he would transfer me again. I gave up almost in tears and I still haven't paid the bill. Why has VM given me all this aggro? I am at my wits end.

    Same here, relieved a bill for £80 for a free sim I had off virgin, since the merger I have been charged. I had no idea about this, infact I had no idea of the merger until I received a text message saying I was moving over during the night to o2, had to Google it to see if it was true

    Have you had any joy with virgin/o2 ? 

    I ended up paying the £80 bill and cancelled my sim, only to receive a £54 bill off o2 today. I'm at my wits end and will be contacting and cancelling my virgin media account tomorrow.
