RE Signed up for Virgin Media Broadband ( 100 MB internet ONLY . no telephone . no tv ) THOUGH find some issues with . ? BILLING .
On my Bank Statement money came out of the Account of ( £ 83 . Friday . 14 Th September 2018 ) & Monthly internet of ( £ 29 . Monday . 15 Th October 2018 ) I telephoned the Call Centre & explained that with previous Contract I'd Paid ( £ 50 for 802.11 AC modem / router )
THOUGH . Found with new contract it WON'T Connect to Broadband . So have to make use of the Modem / Router supplied that I don't own .
So my previous ( £ 50 . 802.11 AC modem / router ) is not of any use & wasted . I am TOLD at the Virgin Media Call Centre that there is supposedly . Double Billing & that is WHY there is a Bill for ( £ 83 . Friday . 14 Th September 2018 )
THOUGH . this doesn't comply with the Contract is very much Unknown issues . I was very much unaware of this 1 St Payment & this amount . THOUGH . also the broadband connection has been . Faulty Twice . with no internet for some hours up to 1 day of no home internet .
WHAT I need to ASK ? is it accurate with Contract for this 1 St Payment of ( £ 83 . Friday . 14 Th September 2018 ) & ALSO can I get any Money Compensation for disconnect of my Home Internet such that is relevant for other Utility Supplies because of . Failure of Service .
PLEASE do let me know Your Experiences of . Virgin Media Billing & Service Reliability / ELSE . No Reliability if the case may be .

No problem with Virgin Media for me.0

I'm not even sure what you are trying to convey to us, OP?
I very much doubt any "compensation" will be headed your way.
Sorry.0 -
If the members OP is anything to go by its the poor communication skills that has led to the problems he/she now face with Virgin Media.0

It could well be a language issue. The OP might get on well with some of VM's offshore reps0

Fail to supply compensation if you ask . Your daily VM charge times the number of days out of service .0

Please . CLARIFY !
What is the Compensation Money Pay out from Virgin Media & what is the Criteria .
IE . Number of Hours . Days . of ( no internet . ELSE . unstable . stop/start internet )
Do let me know if there is ANY details .
Thank You
N.B. what help can I get if possible for the other issues .0 -
Compensation = your monthly charge divided by 30 multiplied by the number of days without service.0
-
Its a refund not compensation .
Days without service .Exact ask the ISP or read its T&C.
<So my previous ( £ 50 . 802.11 AC modem / router ) is not of any use & wasted >
Your fault and a product that is not for cable .
<Faulty Twice . with no internet for some hours up to 1 day of no home internet . >
Probably 3 days no use before pro rata refund kicks in .
The rest of your complaints are to difficult to read/ understand .0
