17Mb.....

Think I'll put up with Virgin's crappy customer service and keep my 200Mbps BB thanks.......

I've just put in a request to cancel my package

150MB + phone line which i've been paying £47 a month (slowly creeped up from a much lower price due to their constant price hikes.)

Guy didn't offer me any package at all (this is quite normal for me in retentions of any contract) and was happy for me to request my 30 day cancellation.

Now... the question is this..

1. Will i get a call from virgin for a stonking deal i cannot refuse?
If not..
2. Can i open a new contract now as per this deal, in my other halves name for the contract to start when my current expires in 30 days???

or...
3. What are my other options for fibre broadband around the £30 ish mark.?

Topcashback are currently offering £80 too!

Wrong link.

I didn't spot this, but not sure if possible to use in conjunction with the above discounts? Even if you can't, still better off going through TCB as that's £80 off instead of my £70!

Assume this does not include the line rental?

Edit...scratch that looks like it does include the Line Rental!

Don't forget "friend refer" for them to get £50 off their bill :man:

There is no line rental.

That's pretty good. Matesrates is £27 for similar package but that only has weekend calls

No way can you get that. Virgin don't sell the 50mb product with tv

Thanks...sorry daft question but do you literally just go to live chat and quote "Have50" or do you start the order and enter it somewhere?

You get a better v6 box and some premium channels when you pay 39 a month... and then get 140 cashback to make up for the extra money a month.

Go on chat too they gave me 50 extra off with a code. I think it was welc0me maybe?? I'll look and see if it's in my emails

I think if you ask them about some chat offers they will mention it. Or you can say a friend used a Have50 code, then they should discuss it with you.

Think it might be b0nus50

You can do your order up to the voucher page to see if it works without committing to buying!

Have50 works on this bundle too!

Anyway of getting this if currently in contract?

Just recently signed up with Virgin Media. I was told that the £50 coupon couldn't be used with a referral, so it's one or the other. I went through uswitch - £30/m for 100mbps broadband and weekend calls (won't be using the TV so there's no point). Gonna give them a call tomorrow, I'll try to get the unlimited calls and the £20 installation fee knocked off since my installation was delayed.

On the tcb page it says that cashback is void if you use a voucher code. Can someone confirm if cashback works even when using the Have50 code? Thanks in advance.

Started a VM contract a few weeks ago paying £30 then £35 after 3 months anything I can do to reduce it like this deal?

Anyone who called to cancel let us know the outcome please :smiley: I'll give them a call to see what they offer tomorrow. This post reminded me that I need to give them my usual yearly call!

How I can get that?

I've done this a couple of times, they will call you in a few days to make an offer. If its not what you want say no, and they will call again with a better offer. Currently i get 100mb + weekend free calls for £20 which I am happy with

:stuck_out_tongue:
I did the same last week and was getting a little edgy about not getting called back
I got 150mg broadband full tv (without sports and movies) newest box (replacement and technician installation free) and weekend calls all for £47.50 inc line rental

I am interested in how you got this too

Watchdog last week anyone?

On Saturday I spoke to VM customer service to renew my contract, I was told a new policy had been put in place. I will not get a call back once I have given my 30 days notice. Secondly after the termination of VM services there will be a 90 days cooling off period, meaning for 90 days after the termination of the contract goes into effect VM will not supply my property with any of it's services regardless of who lives there.

The 500GB TiVO box is trash, tho. You'll curse every time you have to use it.

Secondly after the termination of VM services there will be a 90 days cooling off period, meaning for 90 days after the termination of the contract goes into effect VM will not supply my property with any of it's services regardless of who lives there.

I'd love to see where that is written as T&Cs.

I signed up recently and had the install done on Friday, no install or activation fee and £50 credit for the friend referral. Additionally line rental of £30 pm after credit £2 a month

Chat didn't offer anything. Direct sales didn't offer anything however 30min later pre sales called and offered me this deal. The jokers signed me up however didn't apply the discounts to my account until a few days later when I threatened to cancel the order. Make sure you verify any deal they offer you a few days later. When I called up, customer services told me such deals aren't offered and I was misinformed!

Well I've got it , I'll post a pic up in a bit :wink:

You will not get TiVo 500 as virgin engineers don't have them they carry v6 boxes

plus line rental?

£20 activation and £40 installation on these bundles (for me anyway). Spoke to sales and they offered to drop those plus a £50 credit (mix bundle, £39/m). Any way to improve on that?

I just "cancelled"...

don't waste time with normal customer services, ask to speak to retentions for starters

listen to what they offer (it won't be the best offer) then say no thanks and give your 30 day notice

they will phone you back within 7 days

I got full house TV package, with BT Sports etc., 150meg BB, v6 box, £50 credit, weekend landlines (don't even own a phone but they chuck it in), no install costs etc

£39 a month, saving almost £20 from what I was paying previously for far less, so it worked for me :smiley:

I got a retention deal recently that included an upgrade to 100mbs from 50mbs but I rarely got the 50 and its doesn't seem to have improved since the upgrade! The whole speed thing is totally misleading and certainly around here (Dudley) the 100 mbs is a fantasy!!

That has to be a load of old tosh.
As if they'd reject a new customer that moved into a house that virgin was supplying within the last 90 days.
I smell BS

Terrible company..look else where or save ya money people as cheap as may be I would rather pay more to just not have the hassle of dealing with these clowns..so unprofessional

You'll eventually get a phone call and the deal may appear to be cheaper on the surface, but after 6 months will hike up and get more expensive, in my experience.

This, left these clowns 4 years ago and went on Plusnet dial up 17mb never had a problem since

Enigma 2 box with dvb-c tuner sorted

17Mb.....

Think I'll put up with Virgin's crappy customer service and keep my 200Mbps BB thanks.......

I used to be with Virgin Media but wanted to reduce my monthly costs, so changed over to a one-year Sky contract last October. At the time, I had no plans to go back to Virgin Media so removed all of the cables going around my room (right back to the box outside the front door). I've had Virgin Media mailing me to return and they have said that as I have all of the cables already in the house, it will be easy to switch back. Just wondering how much extra I would have to pay out to have all of the cables put back into the house? Two of my teenagers might be moving out in a couple of months and then I would really need to cut back what I pay on my current bundle. I'm interested in this deal above, but would I be able to get it if I am still in contract with Sky until October? Thank you.

I ordered via Topcashback today and the latest the website let me specify installation was mid Aug. But I phoned the number at hte bottom of the confirmation email and a nice lady put installation back to end Aug as that's when my 12m is up with BT. BT were goingto sting me for over £100 for early termination otherwise. October might be pushing it though. You could double up for a month or two?

is it possible to get this deal if im an existing vm customer?

How do you get "Free upgrade to 'Talk Anytime'. "???

No it's not.....so annoying...for new customers only

Waiting for a call back from retention team....or I'm cancelling.....

Called to cancel...

They called few days after.

They offered 150MB for 27.25 with £40 credit so comes out £24 for internet only

I waited 2 weeks. Nobody rang, so I rang back & asked them to find me a better deal. Bill went down from £53 to £42, its not a huge amount but you can't get a new customer discount as an existing one. They say you'll have to wait 1 month before signing up as a 'new' customer if you recently cancelled (from the date your services expire) or you could maybe sign up as your other half, new customer & keep bank account same (haven't tried this, but should work)

Ive just got the £32 package but my phone is only talk weekends. How do I upgrade free to talk anytime?

So i am right in thinking if i switch from Sky to Virgin i will be without broadband for around two weeks ? Don't think people in my household could cope that long without internet.

'Due to popular demand this product is out of stock'.

Mine said im not in a virgin media area.

Which is weird as i was with them last yr here!

wasteman.

same question!! only signed up a few days ago. might phone up and see what they can do.

Just got weirder ... so typed in both my neighbours addresses and they can get virgin media, but i can't.

Now I'm wondering if its because i canceled my contract with them due to a price rise last yr?

Are all these prices quoted including the whopping line rental charge which goes up by 20% a year? Now it's £19 a month but I expect come November they will be telling us it's going up to £23.

you do that meanwhile i pay buttons for something that works....

I cancelled TV and phone and reduced bb to 100mb last Wednesday haven't had a call yet.

if anyone wants a cheaper deal albeit a lesser package , I get 50mb unlimited .....500gb tivo box.......and weekend calls for £15 per month . however with £50 off its around £10 per month over the term . Not sure if they are still doing it but feel free to drop me a pm

Thanks for posting. BT broadband deal has expired so looking to change as it's not very good and too expensive now. Was paying about £22 a month for broadband and evening/weekend calls so for approx £5 a month extra this seems like a fantastic deal!

That'll teach you. Lol

Why would you get a call? you're still with them.

How much are you paying for just the BB?

My wife 'was' a long term customer of 16 years, we called them a couple of months ago for a better deal, they offered to up our bb speed to 100mb and our package would be £40, we tried to haggle and the rep got shirty and arrogant, so I requested a 30 day termination...they never called!
So now I am the new customer, we have a new number, new superhub 3, tivo box etc. for £32 ( £20 activation) , same as deal listed, went through Quidco which was to track at £80, currently tracking at £40, just waiting for confirm of £80 on the 6th of August.
Moral of the story, if you end up terminating, set up a new account in your partners name to activate the next day after your current one finishes.

If anyone wants a referal then pm me :sunglasses:

Could you message me about it please

I got the 50 meg offer at £26ish per month and weekend calls. Can i upgrade to talk anytime?

If you pm me... I will give you the details as its not allowing me to message you?

Love how the player bundle is advertised as a deal when it is no more than freeview

What problems do you find with your TiVo?

If you cancel your current account and sign up as a new customer then yes! Have you checked if your new property can get Virgin?

What can you do for existing customers still in contract?

10mbs upload :confused:

The 500GB TiVO, both Samsung and Cisco, are very old tech, and as such very very slow. If for an extra few quid a month one can get the V6 box it's like night and day performance wise.

Seems they don't give the old TiVo box with orders despite stating they will. I recently joined and was given the V6 box.

Also tried speaking on live chart to get Anytime Calls for free as I only joined a week ago and am paying the £8 i think it is for it but they kept saying no it's for new customers only :disappointed:

Call up customer service to see what they can offer you

£32 for 100mb mate of mine reduced his package recently and got called. Although been almost a week now so doesn't look like they are calling.

Has anyone tried to use have50 coupon over the phone? I did already signup for player bundle and I don't wont to cancel and do it online again...

I got a call today from them, a day after cancelling. But i didn't answer in time.

They called me back now £27 just 150mb BB. All i need anyway.

Just called retention myself best he would offer is £60 for full house tv and 100mb bb. No cheaper than I had before if you take phone out. Going to let them cancel not worth that.

see my earlier post, I'm paying £39 for more.. wait for the call back within 30 days

Canceled the contract that is under my wife name, will be getting a new one under my name.
Every year it's the same started at £35 on a 18 month contract and I am paying £52, only really use broadband.

Doe anyone knows if I will get the super hub3 if I sign up for this.

All packages come with Hub3. More importantly don't forget to use a referee for your 50off. :P

Hi! I can sign you up This new deal on your name! I work Virgin! PM for further information :smile:

All packages come with Hub3. More importantly don't forget to use a referee for your 50off. :P[/quote

problem is topcashback says not to use codes or cash back is voided. My friend once used my referral and I never got anything.

Where does the code go ? Also anyone knows how long does topcashback takes to pay?

If your friend's got it so should you. Let VM know. Check VM reviews, pps like letting others know how long it takes to receive. VM often refuse cashbacks with their voucher codes.

I went for it, just with the topcashback as is £140 for the deal.
For the record, we cancel today my wife's contract with them. So I order the £29 deal (under my name) after cash back, to be delivered on the 11th of August self install, this one comes with new TiVo v6 and sh3.

Hopeful works out well and I get the cash back .

what's the slowest bb speed they do on retention? I only need 10 meg minimum so I would be happy to pay £10/m for this...?

Anyone need a referral let me know get £50 credit :wink:

Is that with line rental included?

all in, yeah

tried to send you a PM but getting "User does not have private messages enabled". Can you please enable your private messages.

Hi! Try sending me a PM now? Should be working now. Thanks

Same "User does not have private messaging enabled."

Ring me on 01216431652 and ask for shak ! :smiley:

Hi, where does it mention about free upgrade to talk anytime? All i can see in the package is talkweekends? Thanks

Sorry, I believe that part of the offer finished last night. I was signing up then & there was an offer banner with a countdown of a few hours left then.

Yes the talk unlimited offer finished last night

They always increase their rates after 3 months of contract with them...if i remember correctly :neutral_face:

they probably wont give you 100mb and 100mb is **** for 2017

Ring me on 01216431652 and ask for shak! You won't regret it :smiley:

retention, managed to grab 76MB fibre broadband, unlimited uk calls (incl mobiles), Talktalk plus TV, international max boost, free value SIM, TV select package for all in one cost of £25. hope this helps anyone from talktalk looking for similar deal.

With the new contracts we don't anymore! It's a 12 month contract on a 12 month discount! For more information ring me
On 01216431652 and ask for shak :smiley:

Thanks but no thanks

Can give anyone the best deals today ! :smiley:

Very decent from TT.

The only problem with Virgin is the "UNLIMITED" down time in your **** connection.
The reliability has always been ****, and the new hubs appear to be absolutely worse than the ones before.
A second class company, flogging a second class product, to customers it has utter contempt for.
I am a virgin customer only because i have no other viable choice in my postcode and it really boils my wee wee that i have to pay these idiots for my constant disconnections. If i ever see Beardy Branson in the street, i am going to give him the worlds biggest atomic wedgie.

This is a myth.
Four people who i introduced, i got squat. They only ever pay the engineer, i have been told.....(By the engineer!)

Doesn't seem to work for me. Go through either the £140 or £80 cashback link, shows as being £39 or £32 a month. I start the order, click continue with bundle and then on the "your order" page it shows them as either £47 or £40 a month.

Also, does anyone know if (provided I get it working) feasible buy this with a start date 3-4months later, and ability to cancel it before it starts? I'm currently in the process of buying a house, and should that fall through I dont want to be paying for this.

Has anyone got any suggestions how I can keep my telephone number. Happy to cancel and signup again if that's the only way to get the best deal.

Not sure how to do it. Consider instead ditching the landline altogether. Last year I cancelled my contract and started a new with wife's name (BB only @ £18/mth). We did not use the landline at all and the TV channels were pretty much Freeview really. With the savings I now subscribe to Netflix and pay mobile rolling contract.
We have a 30-day mobile rolling contract with plusnet (LifeMobile previously) @ £5.95/mth which gives 1,000min/mth. Use Android box to watch TV via BB connection and chromecast for Netflix, BBC, etc.

I have signed up for the mix bundle with £140 cash back but can't see any sign of the transaction in the topcashback account.

Any ideas of how long will take or should it show already ?

I have been stung by VM - they have charged me for making calls to the speaking clock - not possible as I don't have a phone connected to my land line. They want to sent an engineer out to investigate - what's to investigate? There's nothing connected at my end to make out going calls ffs! Already had the police knock on the door as our number rang 999! I have to restart the router almost daily now as it keeps getting an "No Ranging Response received - T3 time-out". These are known errors and are reported on their bulletin board by many customers, but still no resolution! I only stay with them as the alternatives are much worse!

Vermin Media.

I am trialing the 3 network over MiFi and may end up severing landline, broadband et all!

Is this offer still live, anyone know?

Some nice deals on VoucherPages
