Broadband and mobile firms will no longer be able to hit customers with inflation-linked price hikes mid-contract, under proposals put forward by the telecoms regulator.

Netflix Account Hacked
Does anyone know how I can escalate a complaint within Netflix UK? My Netflix account was hacked last week. Someone changed my plan from basic to premium and added 2 users. As soon as I realized I removed the extra accounts and contacted customer services. They agreed to refund the fees I had been charged for the days my…

Getting better VM deal or cancellation process
My VM contract doesn't expire until May 2024 but a discount is about to come off which will make my monthly payments leap from £59pm to £84pm. I have tried and tried via calls/chats to get a better deal but without success. The web chat people just don't seem to understand what I ask them. I have 125 broadband, Mix TV, and…

FireStick
I’ve been watching the football on Amazon over the past few nights via the Firestick connection and every now and again the transmission stops to buffer, albeit for just a few seconds. Presumably it’s down to our internet connection which at times can be a little temperamental. We’re with Sky, previously EE, but Wi-Fi on…

Found phone - how to return
I found a phone on a bus late at night, and am trying to get it back to the owner. Tried handing it to the bus driver, but they didn't want to know, probably the end of a long shift being bothered by drunk people. I also don't know how long it had been on the bus, so no real station / fixed place the person would go back…

Out of contract with Virgin. Is this offer reasonable?
I am out of contract with Virgin, I contacted them earlier this week via WhatsApp (it was a nightmare and I won't make that mistake again). Because a family member living with me temporarily likes football I enquired about adding sports to the package. They offered me all sorts of things I didn't want at a higher price so…

Virgin Media email issue
I realise I might be clutching at straws here. I left Virgin and for a few months I was still able to access my Virgin emails, all of a sudden (no warning) my access stopped. I definitely don’t want something for nothing but I thought they might warn me when they were about to close my account? Is it possible for me to…

TV Licence - News via Catch-Up Service?
Hi - the only live TV or BBC iPlayer service I watch / use with any regularity now is the news which makes the licence fee look like very poor value for me, and that's before the next price hike. I mostly use Amazon Prime or watch pre-recorded Youtube videos. Lots of good stuff on this forum on the rules / implications…

Utility Warehouse phone line cut off
Hello i called Utility Warehouse last week. I requested to stop our Broadband service but wanted to keep the landline. The operator misunderstood and stopped the landline instead. What’s worse is they cannot reinstate it. They promised to call me back today but didn’t. I chased them up and they said they’d email but they…

Virgin took too much money, how do I get it back?
My new 18 ma onth virgin contract was supposed to be £43 a month but they tool £106, after long pointless conversation on phone with them endlessly lying they finally agreed to pay back £63 in 5 -10 days.

Phone Companies "Landline Charges"
My understanding is that the
copper cable landlines are being discontinued and replaced with VOIP, which is
through the Broadband System. I am with Virgin Media and have
now been moved by them to VOIP, I had no choice with this, I was told I had to
change Now that I am using VOIP via my
broadband, should I still be paying…

They have said that they can fit a converter (that we would need to provide a sim card for), for approx.…

I called BT in July 2022 to report this and they said there were no faults and advised me to have the aerial checked. I did this and went back to them. They said there was nothing more they…

Swap to any fibre and keep old BT number?
Researching on behalf of my elderly mother. She currently has a VERY slow BT line with Broadband provided by Talktalk. When I say slow, I mean 1.5Mbps on occasion. Fibre has been installed in the street and her neighbours have taken to it. We want to upgrade her BB to the fibre but she is adamant that she wants to keep her…

Is it still possible get a new contract to provide traditional landline coverage?
My elderly, sickly father-in-law has just moved house and wants a landline. Apparently the previous occupant relied on her landline which was working a year ago. However, all the new contracts I have found provide an internet phone, which won't work if there's a powercut or (I think) the broadband is down. This is not…
