Hello, I was promised for a free installation and activation however I received a contract with 65 pounds of activation+installation charge. I called Virgin and they were not able to help. Shouild I cancel installation and apply again incase it was a temporary disconnect between the advertisement vs the real contract? I am quite disappointed and confused. 

Btw, the web links promising free installation are still active below:

A contract is not a bill.

Its quite possible when the bill comes through that there will be one-off credits on it for these items.

Staff here can probably check up on this for you, but you may be waiting a few days for a response.

thanks for the answer! 

I hope the same but the support person in online chat and also the one I had a phone call said that I will be charged. I was not able to convince them that this is nonsense because free installation campaign is still active and that was the reason I applied Virgin at first place. They were talking like a bot and keeping saying the same thing that nothing to be surprised here. Either there is a big mistake and unfair situation here or the support team who I talked to do not know their own processes. 

Kind Regards,
