Hello,
I have moved home to a new address and took my Virgin Media M125 fibre package broadband with me (February 2023) in which Virgin has "created" a new contract. This has caused it to "restart" the 18 month contract (saying it ends in August 2024) that I had with the package even though it should have already ended on the original contract that I have with the original address (that ends in October 2023).
Have this happened to someone else and if anyone from Virgin staff can clarify on this for me, as the contract shouldn't have been restarted as I only had an address move.
Thank you,
Rodrigo

Hi @RodrigoBT thanks for posting and welcome to our community.
Sorry to hear of any confusion around your contract. And sorry for any inconvenience this may be causing you. I would like to take a look on your behalf. As providing there were no changes to your package (discounts etc) your contract length should not have changed/restarted. I am going to send you a private message. Please keep an eye on your inbox in the top right of your screen.
Regards

Hi,
I have exactly the same issue, and I raised this issue since last October in the live chat/WhatsApp chat, and I was told a surpression form was submitted, but till now, it's 6 months, my contract still wrong and not updated, I have contacted the customer service again recently, in last week, I got the email said the form will be processed with in 72 hours, but now is even more than 100 hours, still no update. Today is the 5th time I contact the support in WhatsApp, they just said they will re-file the form again, which is the 4th form already, but the contract never updated......Really want someone can provide real help and not just said a form was submitted, please I need someone can help to process the form... thanks

I'm in the same situation. I changed address and kept same service. The contract was extended without my consent. Can someone help please?

Hi, so, I am also in this same situation.
Joined Virgin in Feb '23 and moved house in July '23 and it seems the contract was restarted, without my knowledge, at this point (so now locked into a contract that ends 6 months after all the discounts stop, unsurprisingly!!)
My bill went from an acceptable £58 to a ridiculous £147.96 and Virgin have stalled and made it difficult for me to get a resolution.
I have spoken numerous times with customer services via both the chat and on the phone and eventually got an agreement that they will reimburse the difference every month until the contract expires.
This hasn't happened.
I would really appreciate if this matter could be resolved. I was perfectly happy with the service, and would have happily continued had I been offered an acceptable deal, however, this experience has left a very bitter taste.
Thanks in adance.
