Contract renewal

So I posted on here about my contract renewal (quoted £100 to renew the exact same package - Gig1, Maxit inc TNT, 2 x STB's, NetFlix Premium, UHD) and was advised for some of you to check the TNT element. Found out it wasn't included, despite clearing saying it was on the new contract. So i raised it on here and a very helpful Virgin CS person has been dealing with it.

They are having issues and they explained it would be much higher but they will administer a discount to honour the £100.

I get a text from Virgin yesterday with a link to view my pre-contract documents. When I clicked on it I was presented with a screen thanking me for accepting the new contract. Next minute I get an email saying here is your  pre-contract documents attached. When I looked at them I am now downgraded to NetFlix with ads and my bill is £135.50. No mention of any discount

A few minutes later I get the same text message asking me to view my pre-contract documents. I didn't click this time but a few minutes later a further email arrived. This time the package includes Kids Pick but NetFlix is still with ads and I've lost one of my STB's. AND the price has gone up to £140.50 and still no discount.

I have certainly not approved this but just had yet another email from Virgin thanking me fo rmaking the changes and that I am now all sorted and my next bill (currently paying £94 for Maxit with TNT) will be £145.50 and for that I have lost Maxit - now Mega - and NetFlix standard now getting ads).

The very helpful CS person did say not to be shocked at the increase showing. Well it would be nice to see the £45 discount!

Hello archercj

 

Sorry to hear of the renewal and package issues experienced. Have you spoken to the team since posting? When they advised a credit would be applied did they advise this would be manually added each month as these wouldn't show on the contract?

Thank you for responding Robert. One of your colleagues (Lee) picked this up and has been very helpful.

I am assured that a manual credit will be applied to the duration of the contract to honour what was sent by Virgin originally. We shall see when the first bill comes through 🙂

@archercj Glad to hear our colleague has been a great help to you regarding this issue. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you need any further help and we will do our best to help from here 🙂
