    they are known for very bad customer service. in fact so bad its simply just a waste of time calling them. i agree their product does what it says. but customer service is as important and given all the people who have incorrectly has bad credit reports due to them, its surely a company you do not want to have any business with isnt it?

    Which begs the question of why you made enquiries to continue using them in your new property....

    I don't see why VM would do a credit check for an existing customer. It's very easy to get panic stricken in the period between exchange and completion, so near yet so far. But I really do think you have nothing to worry about with regards to your credit score. Virgin media, on the other hand, will not take no for an answer. Took me six months to stop them charging my 85 year old mother £42 a month for a simple landline.
    I came into this world with nothing and I've got most of it left.
