I have power of attorney for my nan and am trying to go onto her account . I was sent a letter confirming I can access her account and a password but I cannot log in. When I try to set up an account with her account number it days sorry you are leaving?!

Hi Elephantae,

Thanks for your post and welcome back to the community.

Apologies for the issues faced, just so we can investigate this further I've dropped you a PM.

How do I speak to someone about the extortionate amount my 87 year old nan is being charged each month. She has fallen victim to not getting the best price by signing up each year.

Do you have power-of-attorney over your Nan's affairs? If not, VM staff are going to be inevitably tied to not discussing her account with a third party.

The most you can otherwise hope for is that she calls VM, passes account security then verbally authorises you to act on her behalf. Even then, contractual changes may not be allowed.

Package changes aren't in the remit of forum staff here.

Hello yes I have power of attorney, have just got access to her account online and shocked at what she is being charged

[Elephantae]

Is there anybody who I can contact online regarding this. I cannot see a chat function on the website

What aspect is it that you want to discuss?

Is it that you want to renegotiate her package with a view to a new 18month minimum term? Either call in (0345 4541111 or 150 from a VM phone) or use the WhatsApp chat function if so.

Ultimately, the choice to remain on a legacy package would not have been of VM's making - your Mum isn't the first, and won't be the last, to remain out of contract on standard pricing long after the minimum term has expired.

@Elephantae It looks as if two different threads have been merged leading to a bit of confusion.  

You would be best placed to respond to the private message sent to you by @Kain_W  to progress this issue.
