Virgin Media Cancellation deals

They have waived the Activation Fee at the minute.

Can you pick the date to sign up? Or does it start immediately? Partner is going to give 30 day notice. But I want to avail of the present offer.

whats the modern mode?

A bit annoying that it's not available by default actually.

We tried to get a deal too but no luck. Currently paying 76pm for 500mb. With Virgin for 9years and.... so far they would aleays do some deal 6 or 9 moths...now they are saying the best they can do is a 5ver less for the whole year lol.

The plan is to cancel and take it my name 1gbit.

Our contract is out in 30 days so sending that cancelation enail today/tomorrow.

But this offer (no opening fee and quite low prices) thats on currently is finishing in 5 days or so.

So if I sign up now, can we have 2 accounts running for 1 month at the same address....,is that even possibles does anyone know?

Stayed with vodafone who offered €20 pm

what plan is this for? 500mbs or 1000?

Did you get shouted down at every turn by the sales person?

If you're out of contract just sign up as a new customer online and get 500 for €40,when it's up and running cancel the 250 by phone asking for an immediate cancellation as you're already sorted with another provider... Don't tell them it's them obviously ☺️☺️

do you know by any chance if the billing period or activation of service happens once you order the thing or once you plug in yur new equipment and start using it?

We just canceled the service in my partners name and I am planning to start one in mine, so just wondering when is the best time to order/start the new one.

and would potentially want to avail of current offers, price and no fee for new customer, available for 2 more days.

No call back. Judging by the thread doesn't look like any good offers so I'm not going to try. Will get the missus to sign up

The best way to go about these calls is to just go straight in.

I don't let them get a word in.

Just say I'm paying 63 for broadband and it's too expensive, you're giving people 9 and 6 months half price so I want the same. Mention reddit and boards.ie as proof if they say they aren't. When they start talking crap about fivers off just cut them off and say I need 9 or 6 months half price.

Tell them you do this **** every year so lets not waste time as you know I can get it cheaper by moving so I'll take take 9 or 6 months half price.

9 or 6 months seems to be the best you'll get, start at 9 and then 6 obviously.

Don't just say I'm looking for a deal and see what they offer. Push from the second they answer and never let them take control of the call. When they are being cut off from speaking and being pushed for the 9 months they get fed up very quick and cave.

My partner sent the cancelation email yesterday. got the email from VM a few hours after that, with numbers to ring ... talk about what can be done/why is he leaving....

Rang that number today, had a chat with VM...

He gets really friendly with them on the phone.

VM offered him 6m for 65 or so, for 1gb (we are on 500 now and our contract was until 1/11), he said no better offer available out there ...then they offered 43 for 9m and 83 for 3m, which is on par with current 50 per month for new custs.

Just to say they offered almost nothing when he rand the numbers from their website initially before cancelling.

And they already upped our speed this evening, with new equipment coming in a few days (not sure why though).

anyone have knowledge abt returning equipment after cancelation -got a txt the other day do they send out a box for it or what
