Working now thankfully but I am not amused that they are putting their prices up AGAIN! They only hit us with a price increase in April and now they're doing it again... :mad:I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Health & Beauty, Greenfingered Moneysaving and How Much Have You Saved boards.

Do we need to contact them if we were adversely affected or is everyone being auto compensated0

I was looking at the news yesterday and saw the story about needing to update WhatsApp so I messed about and found an Ios update so I did that to my phone, then wife's phone, then found neither would make calls. I was cursing Apple and the update for several hours. Both on Virgin. Very irritating. Incoming calls were hit and miss but data worked, most strange.Mr Generous - Landlord for more than 10 years.

I find it's funny they just did the RPI price increase and now July another they are really taking the Brits for a ride milking every penny from hardworking people.
Crazy glad I ditch everything that begins with the word virgin.
These clowns still own me £43 cheque for my cancelled service this March been chasing them over chat and phone nonstop.0 -

I wonder if it’s anything to do with the new sims they sent out months ago.
They were for moving ppl over to a different network ?0 -
I'm with Virgin and recently updated my contract, and got the new SIM. I delayed using it but was getting nags, so installed it.,
Ever since, phone showing 4g+ but when making a call it goes to 3g,, then H.
Coincidentally, have had numerous hassles with Whatsapp since too, still not getting the blue ticks showing that the other end has got the message!David.0
