Can't believe such a big company can offer such awful customer service and make so many mistakes with the bill.
Firstly I was offered free activation as a student and instead of having the hub installed for me, I was left to set it up myself, later to discover my house had been disconnected from the network and required professional installation. When the guy finally came to install it a few days later I was then charged the activation fee I was promised would be free. After multiple calls to the overrun call line and a very rude response, I was refunded the money.
Secondly, I requested the M350 broadband and checked my contract to see I was being charged for the M500. after more issues contacting Virgin I finally got through and had my contract changed to the M350. However I am now being charged £56 where it should be £39 (I'm not even sure where this number came from?). I once again contacted and was told my contract would change on the 21st September to the correct amount. 21st September comes along and my contract hasn't changed so I have to contact virgin once again to avoid being overcharged by £17. This time my contract is changed to the correct amount however I am charged a £8.44 change fee which was not once mentioned to me and is not fair considering my contract was incorrect in the first place at a fault of Virgin. I have spent hours contacting Virgin and each time a new issue has arised. After asking for compensation for my stress I was refused and I have no patience left to contact them again and ask for the £8.44 refunded.
Oh and to top it off... the wifi has been so slow that most of my housemates have had to use their mobile data to save them waiting 10 minutes for a webpage to load.
