Contract renewed

SiriusB
On our wavelength

Late last month, my partner & I reviewed our budget.

What with the cost of living & energy crisis which we were well aware & budget adapted when needed.

However with the budget pared down as far as it could, the only option left was to downsize Virgin.

Logged into A/c & was pleasantly surprised when before I could downgrade, it was stated - Renew & you could save money.

Followed the links & read statement to which it was accepted

A nice 18 month contract with a monthly saving of £26.

A summary of contract was e-mailed

My partner (A/c holder) returned home a short time ago & not in a very happy mood.

Virgin had taken the full old rate.

Contacted Virgin on 150 but kept getting stymied with secuirty question.

Neither my partner or I can remember ever setting up a memorial question & answer.

This is unacceptable espeically after seeing on A/c page "Thank you for staying with us".

After nearly 2 decades with Virgin...

...As far as I am concerned this is blatant theft.

We would like this resolved A.S.A.P.

Thanks Virgin.

Maybe we're just lucky but we're staying with Virgin.

In the nearly 2 decades, we must have had at least 6 issues.

Each one dealt with swiftly.

As was this one. Raised an offical complaint via online A/c.

Case Management team called this morning..

Issue resolved and very satisfactory.

Can't fault thje service.

Thanks, already tried that for every security question.

Each & every time received "error in saving".

Also, that issue is not really relevant as to why the contract payment has not been reduced.

To make matters worse & according to Virgin Media, the new contract commences from 1/7/24.

According to the bill we have been given a credit & £29.46.

That also does not make sense.

Seeing that, I see options.

1: Bill should be £73.34

2: Bill should be £99.34

3: This one is scary - £158.26 (- the credit of £29.46=£128.80)

Old contract £128.80

New contract £102.80

@Ayisha sent info as requested.

Great, I'll respond now 🙂
