I need to get a new contract! I’m presently paying Virgin £90 per month 😫

Hi YorkLady Virgin has always been uber expensive..do you watch a lot of sports?

I hate all the phone calls and waiting on hold and then the spiel from people on the phones but, know they are probably on low wage and get commission on every new customer who agrees to the deal over phone ..

Martin Lewis says to haggle with well known providers but am not very confident at this but when I was told £50.00 a month, said No thank you…the package I had to cancel was £35.00 a month for TV AND BROADBAND advertised online..

SKY person said he would speak to senior manager and call me back tomorrow 🙈

I need to get a new contract! I’m presently paying Virgin £90 per month 😫

Update £50.00 a mth for Tv with BROADBAND..this is too expensive for me ..or, am I being naive?

Can you cancel on the grounds that you have suffered misrepresentation by omission to inform you of this prior to entering into contract. This information would certainly have affected your economic behaviour ie whether you chose to enter into the contract.
Look up consumer rights act.
Good luck.

Well now I’ve had to cancel the engineer visit and am waiting on a call back..I was quit happy to stay with NOW but, they’ve increased the broadband monthly cost from £27.00 to a whopping £47.00 as from 3 JULY… this is not financially viable for me and was looking for better deal…

I don’t understand why this bloomin broadband costs so much but know everything is either copper or fibre🙈

I have had it for a few months (£29 a month) and was told, no problem, it is installed in my area. How and when is beyond me but it works, that is all I care about.

So you didn’t have an engineer visit and wall drilling?

Highland broadband dug the whole road up, put a box outside all the houses, then offered their service! They then had to dig a trench right across the garden and slide the cables under the path to a box on the house, then drilled through the wall and installed the router. They came in first and discussed best options. Altogether half a days work and only an hour in the house including showing me whats what. Did offer more help but I was OK. Left everything clean and tidy.

Same as Dragonfly. Had it put on recently, the hole is tiny,box inconspicuous.

we also had the new wires last year, although it says it takes 2 to 3 hours...open reach is not in your house all that time. they led a new wire from the telegraph pole outside put a small box on the outside wall, led a cable up to the room where I have my computer, and placed another small box for the router on the wall, I can still use my landline.we,ve not had any bother .

When we went over to fibre they drilled a hole through the outside wall and placed an inconspicuous box on the outside. We have no problem with that.
