Turn off paper billing - apparently impossible

[jrm01]

Hi

After moving house in December I was set up on a new contract which included a charge for paper billing.  Didn’t have this before and don’t want it.

After contacting VM after the first bill I was given a credit and told paper billing turned off, however next bill came and still on it.  Contacted VM again and same story, given credit and told definitely turned off.

Latest bill received and charge appears again!!  I do wonder how hard can it be to turn off paper billing.

Getting completely fed up contacting VM every month.

Anyone else had issues with this and found a solution?

thanks

Hi chadflaherty,

Thank you for joining me in a private chat and for clearing security, as advised paperless billing has now been set up and will start from your next billing date.

This is usually set up Via your Online Account by selecting billing and ticking the paperless billing box.

If you do need any further help, please do not hesitate to reach back out.

Hi Virgin Media

Can you please remove me from the paper billing? I have never requested a paper bill and now been charged.  I do not a profile option to turn this off. 

Thanks
