Outstanding Balance
Hi, I received an email about an outstanding balance from Virgin Media and I made a payment on 05/11/25 to clear it. However, I noticed that my Direct Debit is still scheduled to come out on 07/11/25 for the same amount. As I’ve already paid this month manually, I just want to check whether the Direct Debit will still be taken, which would mean I’ve paid twice. If it will still be taken, can someone confirm that the extra payment will be refunded or automatically adjusted to my account balance? I’ve been unable to get through to customer service on the phone. Thank you.Keep Getting Emails About Outstanding Bill
As the title implies, we keep getting an email about paying a bill for a late payment, even though the bill was settled in FULL yesterday. It even says "PAID" on the VM portal site, but when I click view on VirginMedia, it is saying we still have to pay the same bill??? How can it be paid and not paid at the same time, is this some kind of Schrödinger Bill Payments or what? #angry #frustrated Virgin Media are a circus half the time and this is getting ridiculous, one issue after another with this company!New customer - acc not linking to VM app
I placed an order for TV and broadband on 29/10/25. Unfortunately VM didn’t add a phone line therefore this required me having to cancel and redoing the whole order! The issue is that my account isn’t showing my correct order. It’s displaying the first order, which has already been cancelled. I’ve spoken to customer services but they don’t seem to know what to do? Can someone please help me? I’m losing hope. Why is everything so complicated? At this point, I’m considering cancelling everything and sticking with my current provider. I’ve been on the phone nonstop for the last three days!Online Renewal Contract
Hi, My contract was up for renewal, so using the MyVirginMedia app I accepted a renewal deal and received email confirmation with the Contract Information Sheet. I spoke to someone earlier today as I was told my account was not showing the update and he said that, as he was unable to match the deal offered online, I just needed to wait 14 days for it to appear. I then received an email this evening saying 'We'd like to talk to you as it appears that some information that we need to process your order was missing'. So I called again and the lady told me she was unable to match the online offer so she would transfer me to another team who would be able to help. Whilst on hold the call was ended by the team before I could speak to someone. Please can someone contact me urgently to resolve this issue and ensure my deal is activated. Thanks, ShannonDisconnected after accepting online renewal, now struggling to get the original offer honoured
Virgin Media disconnected me earlier this week after abysmally failing to process my online contract renewal. I have since been reconnected, but getting customer service to honour the original renewal offer is proving to be a real nightmare. A timeline of what has happened: In mid-September 2025, I informed Virgin Media that I want to terminate my contract due to a massive increase in my monthly subscription cost, from £56.52 to £197.52, which was due to come into effect on 19 October 2025. I asked for a straightforward cancellation of all services, without doing a one-touch-switch to another provider. A few weeks after my cancellation request, I received an email from Virgin Media with an offer to renew my existing package for a further 24 months at a cost of £44.02 per month. I accepted the online renewal offer on 7 October 2025 and received an order confirmation by email on the same day, stating that my existing package would be extended by a further 24 month at a monthly cost of £44.02, with an annual price increase of £4 each April. The email also said that the estimated activation date for the new package would be the 10th October 2025. On 17 October, I noticed that the new contract details were still not showing in my online account and called Virgin Media customer to inquire as to the reason for the delay. The customer services agent informed me that, contrary to the information provided in the order confirmation email, it might take up to 15 days for online renewals to be processed. As my existing contract was due to end on 19 October, the agent told me that she would suspend the disconnection and manually monitor my account so as to ensure that the renewal of my existing package at a monthly cost of £44.02 was processed correctly. She also promised to keep me informed by telephone as soon as the renewal of the contract had been processed. I was further promised that I would receive a full refund for any additional charges raised against my account until the renewal process is complete, so as to ensure that I am not overcharged for my existing package. During the night of 22-23 October, all Virgin media services at my address were disconnected. On 23 October, I called Virgin Media once again. The agent puts in a reconnection request and promises that, once I am reconnected, the renewal offer will be processed. On 25 October, Virgin Media reconnected all services and bills me £206.88. My online account says that I am now "out of contract". There is still no sign of the online renewal offer, which I accepted on 7 October, and for which I was sent an order confirmation and two pre-contract documents. When I call Virgin Media, the agent tells me that the online renewal offer was voided by the (erroneous) disconnection and that he is unable to recreate the package price that I accepted when renewing my contract, since the "pricing tool" is not available within the first three days of (re)activating an account. He suggest that I call again "after 72 hours" to see what can be done. I am now left wondering what will happed in three days. The online renewal offer that I accepted on 7 October was substantially better than anything I was previously offered by the retentions team over the phone. I am shocked that Virgin Media has failed to process the online renewal within the promised 15 days and I am now left picking up the pieces. What will happen in three days if the telephone agent is unable to match the online renewal offer that I accepted on 7 October? To make matters worse, a charge of £206.88 was raised today against my account, which now appears to be “out of contract”. I feel like I have hit a dead end with customer services and that my only way forward is a formal complaint and, if this fails, contacting the Communication Ombudsman. Is there really no other (and quicker) way of getting this problem of Virgin Media’s own making resolved in a satisfactory manner?
