Deals for Long term customers
I’ve been on a great deal for many years and only paid £87 a month and been a long standing customer for 19 years now I renewed my package deal from £87 in October 2025, the exact same package now cost me an extra £35 a month £122 I was expecting a few quad more but an extra that’s a 40.2 percent increase where as over the several years I’ve been on the same package it barely reached an extra £2 on my bill each month very each in increase advice please I am on this deal for 18 months219Views0likes7CommentsCancelled VM contract, not reflected on MyVM account.
Hi all, as above I cancelled my services today by phone to take effect when the contract expires on 19.2.26. I've had confirmation by email and strangely on google message also but logging in to myVM account there is no mention of it. It simply says contract expiring soon and links to various offers I don't intend to even look at. Should I be concerned or is the account just slow/not going to update ever ? Also could I confirm you can take the equipment to an O2 shop (even if you're VM only). I have a hub 3 which I believe does have to be returned and a 500gb Tivo that's about 12-13 years old which I think just needs to be recycled. Many thanks.26Views0likes2CommentsEngineer Failed to turn up
I signed up to virgin broadband in November 2025. We were told we needed the external work to go through our back garden, so we would need to wait in for the engineer appointment to run the cable through our garden to the cabinet down the street. However, the engineer has failed to turn up on 3 different occasions (today being one of them), with absolutely no communication. I have waited in all day with the kids and have been unable to leave the house and still no one turns up. Then when I contact virgin to try and rearrange the appointment, it’s another 2-3 week wait. It is January now and we have been without broadband for 3 months, as our old provider disconnected us, when we made to switch, which is totally unacceptable and we’re totally fed up now. Absolutely terrible service from Virgin. All you do is rearrange our appointment, over and over again, but nothing happens. I have lost all faith in your company and I have zero confidence that an engineer will ever actually turn up. Can anyone recommend a more reliable provider, who will actually turn up? I work from home, so I rely on the internet. I also have an autistic son, who needs his tablet to help him communicate and regulate.Home Move - Virgin Media signed me up to a new contract without my consent
Bit miffed as today I found out VM have signed me up to a new contract without my consent when I moved the existing service to a new house. I’ve been reading several similar threads on this website and sadly it looks like there are lots of people that have had this happen to them over the past few years. I submitted a request on the 17th Dec via the website to move my existing service to a new property. I originally took out my contract on 8th Nov 2024 for a duration of 18 months, meaning my contract is supposed to end on the 7th May 2026. I also called and spoke to customer services on 18th Dec to confirm the contract end date, which was confirmed as 7th May 2026 and declined to start a new contract. My old property was disconnected on 21st Dec 2025 and new one up and running on 22nd Dec 2025. I did not change my package, just the address. Today I discovered that VM have started a new 18-month contract at my new address, paying a lot more than I would have ever agreed after the promotional period is over (in May 2026). All of this was done without my consent!! I called the customer services and was then transferred to the home movers line, only to be told I need to pay a disconnection fee of over £1000 because VM put me on a new contract without my consent. The lady I spoke to, although polite, was absolutely useless and sadly I have no faith that she will resolve this for me. Seeing as various people have had this exact same problem, I thought it would be worth a shot to reach out via here for assistance. All I want is for VM to honour my initial contract, which should be expiring in May 2026. Thanks in advance, VictoriaSolved99Views0likes8CommentsDisconnected Despite Renewing
Long story short, i handed in my cancelation in line with the 30 days notice at the start of December 2025. My last day would be 11th January. I received an offer to renew through email on 22nd December of which i accepted. Nothing updated on my system. Over the next 2 weeks i rang Virgin 3 times and spoke to 3 different people who all reassured me my connection will not disconnect and the new contract will take over. Fast forward to today, 12th of January 2026 and my services are off. I have phoned virgin this morning asking what had happened. I told them i called 3 times over the last 2 weeks to make sure this does not happen as i work from home and so does my wife so the broadband is required! (I have full tv / broadband /phoneline etc). They managed to reactivate this however this can now take 24-48 hours for everything to be back up and running. We have been unable to work due to this. It will reactivate at our normal contract price. They have said once it is back up and running give it 24 hours and call us back and we can honour your renewal. Has anyone else had such an issue and how long was it till your services were restored and contract updated? Any help would he appreciated. I am stressed because if is not back on in time i wont be able to work tomorrow either106Views0likes3CommentsContracted service change hasn't happened
I'm due to start a new contract today. I'm changing from M125+TV+phone to M250 only. The change was agreed on 07/12/2025 but is due to take effect today due to the 30-day notice period. The new contract is still showing on my online account dated today, but the online account is still showing my old services - it actually says the old contract ends today, but the new one is supposed to start today! Although the phone is dead (not very unusual - might start working again), the TV is still working and my broadband speed is still M125. I've tried rebooting the router twice (7am and 1pm). Max traffic rates 143750047 and 22000047. Please could someone look into this?Solved100Views0likes3CommentsNetflix removed after contract renewal
I have just had a call from VMO2 regarding renewing my contract, I was happy with my price and I confirmed by asking that all my services would stay the same as my current contract. The caller confirmed this was the case, so I agreed to proceed. not 5 minutes later I get an email from Netflix and virgin media saying that my Netflix had been suspended due to removal of my payment method. And it appears Netflix has been removed from my account. How do I get this back as online chat seem none the wiser. Feel annoyed that it appears to be a mistake from the rep or that i was lied to.37Views0likes1CommentProblems trying to speak to someone about changing package
My current package contract runs out at the end of January and the price hike is crazy. The kit I'm using is also old, so definitely not worth the price. My broadband isn't good enough for my needs either. I've tried to speak to someone about it and it is so difficult. Just trying to use the automated system is impossible. I eventually got through to someone, but I couldn't understand them and they couldn't understand me. I asked to cancel my contract and said I no longer wanted to be a virgin media customer. Why is it everything so difficult? I just wanted to speak to someone to see what was available to me.113Views0likes5CommentsStopped getting bills. Cannot login to account.
Hi, I've stopped getting bills by email, and I don't seem to have access to any that give me the account number. I think it's a linked email account expiring or something but it's most inconvenient. I know I'm in area 22 but I would like to get a bill posted out to the account address so that I have a paper copy of the account information. Could that be arranged please? Obviously private message for address details etc.24Views0likes1CommentNetflix Activation
Hi Everyone, I’ve got Netflix free as part of my package but I never received an activation email. I was already a Netflix customer at the time I moved to virgin media. On Sunday I spoke with Virgin via chat and was promised an activation email would be received within 24hrs! Nothing arrived. on Monday via chat again promised 24hrs and nothing arrived. On chat again Tuesday then told it will take upto 5 days but it’s Friday night now and I have zero faith anything will arrive or change. i can’t activate via the entertainment services page as that just gives a generic error. also raised via phone (almost impossible to speak with an actual person) with complaints team but again can’t see anything arriving on a Saturday/Sunday so we won’t be watching Netflix is my guess. Has anyone got any advice or been through similar. Starting to regret the move away from SKY.Solved4.1KViews3likes114Comments
