Hi ashleigh.
Thanks for reply.
Emailed this morning been on phone numerous times but carnt get to the bottom of it keep saying no record department who deal with it wont take my call checked emails from around time of suspected default and nothing.
Always paid direct debits on time been with virgin for 10 plus years and always kept same mobile number so just carnt understand where this 24 pound default is from.
I understand there's procedures but need it dealt with and don't know what else I can do.

Thank you for confirming this @dannyo87
The credit file amendment team will investigate this for you and unfortunately it can take up to 28 days for your
Have you also emailed your dispute to either Equifax or Experian? This may quicken the investigation for our team to give you their response or action any amendments sooner.

Okay, we can try see if we can support to look into this further, but will need to be able to locate and pass account security on the account to be able to discuss with you and explain any details or information. I appreciate that it's been some time, but we'll do all we can.
Do you know if this is for a mobile or media account at all?

Just gets even worse with virgin.
So after wrongfully putting default on credit file for four and a half years and having to spend two days to get it removed wasting countless hours on phone emails forums.
Have gone through complaints procedure and logged complaint.
Had email off resolutions team then day after a text message asking me to ring a call centre in the Philippines to talk about it then put me on hold for 20 minutes to say they have no idea about logged complaint and ask me to log it again.
Come on virgin there must be some one I can talk to who one knows whats happened and two can understand what I'm saying without me having to spell everything out with a word for every letter.
