Contract renewal
Our current VM TV Broadband contract is up for renewal at the end of this month (Jan 2026
I used the My Virgin Media app on my iPhone to do this and got a message on the app saying Your changes are on the way with an order summary and order reference code. Apart from this i have heard nothing.
Is the above info i received all that happens or has something gone wrong.
BTW it has been a week since i did this.

Re: Contract renewal
I recently re-contracted through the app as well, I got email copies of the new documents and a confirmation of the order. Have you checked your spam folder?

They claim it takes weeks to implement if you renew online/ the app. Goes to some incredibly inefficient back office team. However renew over the phone, via retentions, you'll get a much better deal and its implemented immediately.

I don’t know who "they" are who claim that, as I renewed my deal online last Thursday morning (I was automatically offered £14 off my current price on the website, as the current contract ended mid-February), and received the confirmation paperwork by email less than an hour later..

You may have received automated emails but has it been applied to your account? This is where it can fall down.

Of course your milage may vary, and it all works out just fine, but please reserve judgement until you get your next bill and see if it has actually taken effect.
