unable to renew contract

My contract expired on January 5th of this year.

Looking at my emails yesterday, it looks like I was offered the chance to keep my package for 20% less.

So I thought, Why not? Not like I have much choice in my area, at least not yet.

I tried renewing, but the problem is that the website just gives errors. I've tried two browsers, and nothing works.

Today I got a new offer on my phone to renew for 25% less, so I followed the link on my phone with the same result.

This is not a recent problem. I have had problems with the website for years.

It's like you don't want anyone to renew.

The chat option is as good as useless 3 hours without a reply

Hi Phil, 

Thanks for taking the time to contact us via the Community. It's lovely having you on board with us in the Forums.

We're sorry to hear you've had some issues with opening an offer via email. Have you tried logging in to My VM and checking any offers available to you there? 

We're not able to implement email offers manually I'm afraid but we can check to see what offers are available that we can authorise. In order to do that I will need to confirm some information with you to pass security so I have sent you a direct message to allow us to do this with you in a private space. If you are using a PC/Laptop then you can just click on the little ✉ at the top right-hand side of the page to access your inbox. If you are on a mobile/tablet device then instead click on the little circle icon in the top right then select 'Messages'. 😊

Thanks,

Hi

I have replied and still keep trying online but nothing so far.

How is it possible for the website to be so bad, it's not a recent thing it has had problems going back years

oops there is a problem is the usual error

Quite possibly the worst website i have ever used going back decades

My apologies for the concerns you've had with the website @grizz
