£50 to disconect
Hi all new here..
just wondering if anyone can tell me why i have to pay £50 to have my virgin internet cut off, im sure when i joined virgin it was without a contract...and the reason i want to leave is because i play alot of games online and its impossible to play with 500 ping on us servers and 300 ping on eu server anytime on weekends and after 6 on weekdays!
so anyone know why i have to pay this, and if i can get out of paying it?

Re: £50 to disconect
Did you join while it was still NTL as I would expect you are paying as you are on a 12 month contract up till September.

Re: £50 to disconect
i phoned up a while ago to cancel and they said there was a disconection fee i told the person that i didnt have a contract and she said i still had to pay it for some reason i didnt listen to her much(filling me with crap), and im gutted because there service is absolute rubbish yet they still expect me to pay every month for a service im hardley using because its so poor.....i wana leave but refuse to pay the £50
