Armed Forces Covenant - Virgin Media Breaching Contract
Military family here. We lived in an SFA down south and got posted to Cyprus (RAF base, which is British Territory) . I contacted Virgin Media saying that: the area I'm moving to is UNSERVICEABLE by Virgin Media hence by contract no early termination fee should be billed to my name. It is a military posting for the entire family that is outside our control so by contract, Virgin Media should not put a military family under unfair treatment and/or discrimination. Virgin Media is required to waive fees for military FAMILIES. I've explained all this, quoting the covenant, quoting other military spouses whose fees have been waived under such circumstances and the response I got was "I only have paperwork for Serving Person in my office, because the account is under your name you will have to pay". Well, isn't this unfair treatment? the house you provided services for is MOD property, which funny enough is under the Serving Person name, so you charge me, you charge him, you charge us. Webchat was even worse as I got someone who didn't speak any English and his messages made absolutely zero sense. Then I got a really cheeky guy who kept asking me of he could close my complaint. I told him not to close it and what did it do? claimed he resolved it!!!! Absolutely unbelievable how you don't understand that you can be sued for all this and that I can get my husband's Warrant Officer to send you a nice lovely letter as he already had to do this before for other people. You think you can just take advantage of people that's what you think. I expect the bill to be waived as it's legally required. Waiting for you to get in contact.
