Contract date not changed when moving
I took out a virgin media contract in September 2024, and moved house over the summer keeping Virgin as my phone and broadband supplier, and not changing my plan. Having checked online, my contract says "duration 18 months" but with a start date from my move, rather than the original start date. Unfortunately I will want to move away from Virgin when my contract comes to an end due to steadily rising costs I have been unable to negotiate down. Do I need to do anything now to ensure that my contract is ending in March 2026 as intended?£50 student Just Eat voucher nowhere to be seen
Hi, I bought the student virgin media package that came with a £50 Just Eat voucher, but I've received no communication about it at all. Our broadband was installed on October 10th 2025. When will we be sent our voucher? The advert very much made it seem that the voucher would be immediate.Account Recovery
Hi, I have been trying to recover my Virgin Media account as I cannot find the email and password that I used to create it. I have tried using the "Forgotten Email" link but when I do this and provide the Surname, Account Number and Area Code from my most recent bill I get an email of "x****x@virginmedia.com" (obviously the x's are filled in with other characters). When I then try to log in using what I believe that email address to be (any some other variations as well) I get an "Email not recognised" error. Given that I have forgotten the email and password I used to create my account it is not much use to not give me the email I used to create the account, or alternatively email me the address to my the email used to send me monthly billing messages (which is a different email address). I have tried calling the 0345 number but I am unable to get past the automated menu without providing characters from my memorable word which I also cannot remember but believe that I can access this from my online account. Can someone please help me recover my account as I have queries regarding my package and my latest bills and I cannot do anything without recovering my account and determining what my memorable word is!! Thanks in advance, please help!!Renewal Issues
So my contract is due to expire in December 2025, and I received an email from VM with a renewal offer of £90.75, about £10 more than what I pay currently which I was happy with, so I went through the process and agreed to the new price, shortly after received the new contract details via email with all the same services and the new price clearly stated. So I thought everything was good and my new 2 year contract would start and I would be paying the new price. Fast forward a day and I’ve now received another email saying I’ve made changes to my contract (even though it states there is now added or removed services) and therefore my bill this month will be £193.64 and then £162.34 thereafter!!! That’s even more expensive than if I’d just let the current contract lapse and almost double what I’ve agreed to on the renewal email. Is anyone able to shed some light on this or help at all? Thanks!
Waiting for call from management after a complaint. How long is it likely to be?!
Sorry but this is long! A month ago, I told Virgin I was moving house through the messaging system on their website. I requested to see if there was a better deal than my current package as I had been on it since 2014. What I expected to be a quick chat, turned into over 2 hours - they said they were experiencing technical difficulties. The operator told me there were 3 options that were better and then told me option 3 was best which was for volt with an O2 sim. She told me the broadband was better, (I believed it was M500 which can be boosted), free Netflix with adds, and I thought my tv would be at least the same or better. I am usually a cautious person and so asked many questions and felt her increasing, persuasion to accept option 3. E.g. ‘so, shall we go with option 3?’ My chat messed up and was keeping previous chats so it became very hard to get the correct points across. I was worried to come off the messaging as I would potentially have to go back through it all and with the pressure of moving house, accepted. However, it turns out she put me on Volt 350 and mix it tv which is worse than my original package. We have lost loads of channels. I am out of the cooling off period but called today and spoke to retentions as I feel they have messed up (been a customer for years). They offered me different packages at higher costs. I just wanted the package I had been told I was getting at the price I was quoted and that I had accepted. It has been sent as a complaint where I now need to wait for management to call me which can be 7-10 days whilst putting up with the pathetic number of tv channels and recordings we can’t watch. I was told it would be over £1000 to cancel the contract should I go to another provider. Awful- especially as they messed up originally. So, how long have others had to wait for call from the team please?2 month delayed install following move, but no refund on bills and reset contract length...
Straightforward really. VM gave me a confirmed install date in early August (house move). Eventually installed at the end of September. Have just receieved first bill...for full amount and with a 'new contract' date. Was expecting £6.24 delay compensation x 55 days, and also expecting my existing contract to be maintained rather than being re-tied in to a new one. Am more than slightly disgruntled. Best course of next steps? So much for automatic compensation scheme...feels a bit devious tbhNo confirmation email of contract nor delivery date
I signed up for virgin media and received an email with with a summary of my order, an estimated delivery date of the 11/10/25, and a statement saying I would get a confirmation email with my official contract and actual delivery date. I have since received nothing from virgin media, and the estimated delivery date was not correct. Help?
