£35 activation fee is a bit excessive for an existing customer.
I was considering transferring my SIM to o2 Via a Volt Package that would also upgrade my BBI from 500mb to 1gb with a new 24 month contract, and having both services on the same bill however an 'activation fee' of £35 is unreasonable and a deal breaker. considering I'm an existing customer and its a basically a clerical update to my account, with me doing any manual installation locally with existing infrastructure/equipment, I understand equipment needs to be sent to support the 1gb speed, this should be at max a £10 shipping fee max, not £35? how is this justified. £35 negates any saving I would have made when changing mobile provider over a 2 year period and is a deal breaker unfortunately :( I get access to corporate discounts, yet anything to do with VirginMedia requires 'New Customers Only' I can't help but feel like a second class customer at times. Unless this fee is waived/credited as part of any upgrade, I will need to seriously consider another provider when my contract is served, as my requirements are changing and I don't feel like I a valued customer being charged £35 to update my account.Unable to get volt benefits on my o2 sim even though my volt Benefits are active
Unable to get volt benefits on my o2 sim even though my volt Benefits are active with virgin media. Signed up With Virgin and o2 start of July and been having a nightmare since. Not getting any benefits of volt on my o2 and keep getting same link which isn’t working to try and link them together! Need help pleaseVolt benefits on my Virgin Media Broadband
Hi, I have very recently (last week) rejoined VM as a returning/new customer. Having successfully installed the Hub 5 and being back on-line I want to know if I need to do anything to gain the speed benefit on the broadband? I was informed that the 516 Mb broadband would increase to 1Gb as part of the VM/O2 Volt benefits. My O2 mobile speed appears to have increased but the VM Broadband is still reporting to be operating at 516Mb. Is there anything I need to do or will this speed increase be applied the coming days? ThanksO2 Volt benefits not activating until VM update my address
Hello. I cannot get the full Volt beneots (double data on my o2 sims) because the address on my o2 and VM accounts are not exactly the same. For the last month, I've been trying to get o2 or Virgin Media to update the format of my home address. After hours on the phone to O2 and VM, I've established that o2 are unable to edit the address on their system. VM said they could update it and to wait 5 days for the update, but nothing was ever updated and I've since wasted hours on the phone with VM trying to resolve this issue with no success. I have been a customer of VM and o2 for over a month now and this still isnt resolved. Last month I ran out of data on my o2 sim and o2 said I should purchase more data which is ridiculous as my contract states I should have double the amount of data I am getting! Please can someone from VM help resolve this issue as soon as possible please.02 Sim card - Mis-sold
Absolutely furious. We moved from Sky to Virgin in January, as we had a Virgin Media sales rep turn up at our doorstep in December, who basically sold us the benefits of moving to the Virgin Media Volt Bundle at £95 per month. We explained that one of us are currently paying for an sim only deal with 02, at £15 per month. Mohammed (sales rep) then explained that he could remove this cost completely, as the bundle included an 02 sim card. This was part of the monthly subscription we paid to Virgin Media (within the £95). We were then sent the FREE o2 sim as we were told that there isn’t any charge for the contract. However, since setting this SIM up, moving the numbers around, we have now received an email advising that we would be paying £21.27 from 10th March. We have been mis-informed, mis-sold this sim card as we did not agree to pay for an 02 SIM at £21.27 a month. We were told that the sim cost was covered within the £95.00 per month. 02 customer services said this is an issue that Virgin Media need to fix but unable to find a number to discuss it. Can anyone from @virgin media help with this?
VOLT Benefits applied to O2 but not Virgin Broadband
I’ve been with Virgin and O2 for over a month now, VOLT applied to O2 straight away, but still not applied to Virgin Media. when trying to sign into MyO2 from Virgins website to view VOLT benefits, it always errors and takes me to the O2 homepage.
