- Account RecoveryHi, 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!!98Views0likes5Comments
- Worst Customer ServiceI have been trying to sort out my account for over 3 months and have never had such a debacle. Had 2 different contracts, spoke to numerous employees and still can't resolve basics. Thought I had it all sorted last month with another new contract but yet again Virgin promised much but delivered nothing. Spent over 2 hours on the phone that time and now just spent 40 mins then I got passed to my 3rd agent who promptly cut me off deliberately. Has anyone else ever dealt with such a poor organisation who are completely inept? So, infuriating when the staff employees cannot read previous notes or don't listen to you? Then pass you onto another agent where you have to keep on repeating yourself endlessly. Anyone from Virgin got the courtesy to try and sort this out? Rather than on of your Employees who said best thing to do was leave, I am starting to think I should have followed his advice.66Views0likes4Comments
- Switched From Sky But Still Charged For BothWhen I switched from Sky in The summer I was told Virgin would inform SKY of my change of broadband but I had to tell them myself about the change of TV. I have just had a call from SKY saying they had not been informed by Virgin and so I have done so. This means that I have been double charged for 2 months for my broadband service. Who do I speak to to get this refunded. My understanding is that via the Ofcom ‘One Touch Switch’ process, Virgin are obligated to inform SKY about my switch. https://www.ofcom.org.uk/phones-and-broadband/switching-provider/easier-than-ever-to-switch40Views0likes2Comments
- New contract not showing in my accountMy contract was coming to an end so I renewed with a deal that was offered to me on the app. This was on the 15th September, and I received 3 emails confirming the change (one with the order summary, one with the contract, and one final email confirming the changes and my new monthly bill of £27.75). A month later, the changes still aren't showing in my account and it states my monthly bill is £65.97. I spoke to someone on the live chat yesterday who said the updates had been applied to my account but they don't usually take a month to show. How can I check that the new contract I signed up for is in place? Ideally before I am overcharged?Solved68Views0likes3Comments
- 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 tbh28Views0likes2Comments
- Historical Debt - Unable to change addressI am trying to update my address for an old Virgin Mobile Account that is currently being managed by a Debt Management company on my behalf. However, I cannot get through to anyone at Virgin on live chat or the phone that can help me, as I cannot remember the original address for the account. Please can someone help me, I've spent hours online and no one helps me. I just need to update the address.
- Big trouble with contract renewal & current billI have a contract with Virgin paying £43 per month with my contract due to end soon but I renewed my contract on the website and got a confirmation email on the 7th of this month for £43.16 per month. The problem is, when I view my current bill due on the 22nd of this month, it has shot up to £113.95 with no explanation. I know the contract renewal can take a few days to kick in but I can't understand what is going on with my current bill, it does not make any sense to me? Is there anyone here from Virgin who can assist me? Thanks so much, Ash42Views0likes1Comment
