You might have to wait until one of the calls is actually a human, and then ask them to stop calling you. Of course, be prepared to have to ask more than once.
By cancelling all our VM services, we got on their 'Beg These People to Stay With Us' list, too. The calls have been better than drunken hysterical phone calls in the middle of the night from someone you don't care about anymore, but only
just.
They called us
29 times (27 of those calls were nothing but dead air!) over the course of 14 days.

16:30 -- for this last call, Hubby answered it, and waited a good 2 min of dead air before someone came on the line. He told them that we are not moving to a Virgin Media services area, and to stop calling here. Since his name is on the account, you would think that they would honour his request, right? Not a chance.

Feb 14 at 11:19, 16:00 -- not even so much as a 'Happy Valentine's Day!'

16:18 -- on this last call, someone was actually at the end of the line when I answered, instead of the usual dead air. Hubby was home, and told them ONCE AGAIN that we are not moving to a Virgin Media serviced area. He requested ONCE AGAIN that they stop ringing us.
They've finally stopped. All our VM services are being cancelled 29 Feb (Yaaaaay!) so even if they do start calling again, we won't have to put up with it for much longer.
