Cancellation not done in time
<p>We had 4 Virgin Mobile contracts. We cancelled them all.... The latest cancellation is a problem. My daughter phoned early in January to cancel the contract - last day of service on 28/02/2017. Virgins call centre did not want to accept this cancellation because she need to cancel on the 31/01/2017 to get cancellation effective on 28/02/2017. she did phone back on 31/01/2017, this time they did not want to cancel because she is not the primaray account holder. We made every - one in the house a primary account holder to avoid situations like this. My husband phoned 08/02/2017 to cancel. now we have extra costs becouse the last day of the contract is now according to the callcentre 09/03/2014. this is unexeptable. the last day must be 28/02/2017 with no extra fees or costs.</p> <p>This happened before with one of the other contracts. Virgin did rectified the problem. they need to do it again.</p> <p>Do not understand why they do not want to accept a cancellation before 30 days of final service date?</p> <p> </p> <p> </p>
Hi SCHWESS,
Thank you for your query.
Your daughter called in to call the contract on 19.01.2017 and 31.01.2017. Both times she was advised that cancellation could not be processed as she was not the main account holder.
The main account holder only made contact with us on 08/02/2017. Therefore we can only take the 30 day notice as off 08.02.2017. This means the contract will only be cancelled on 08.03.2017 with the final debit order date being 31.03.2017.
We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
Kind Regards
Alicia
