My wife died but Virgin Media seems unable to transfer account to my name

I feel so bad for this guy, it's just crazy that Virgin Media is being so unhelpful . I mean, 18 weeks have passed since his wife passed away, can't they just give him a break? The fact that they're making him pay twice as much for the internet package is just ridiculous . And the process of transferring her account to his name and switching to a cheaper package should be pretty straightforward, not this convoluted mess . I'm glad Virgin Media eventually apologised and agreed to a new deal, but it's still frustrating that they had to wait for someone else to point out their mistake . It just goes to show that sometimes, technology companies can be really inconsiderate and neglect the needs of their customers .

omg this is insane 18 weeks since she passed away and he's still being treated like a normal customer? that's just cruel can't they see that he's grieving and needs help not more hoops to jump through? and what's with the bereavement line, it's supposed to be for support not a way to get things done at least they agreed to reduce the cost, but 3 months of waiting is still way too long. I feel so bad for this guy, he deserves better

This is so sad, I mean who expects to have to deal with this kind of stuff after losing their partner? 18 weeks ago and still struggling to get things sorted out... it's like they're not even listening to the guy anymore . I'm surprised they initially blamed new staff for the issue, like that's not a big enough problem already . But hey at least they apologized and offered him a new deal . 30 days feels like an eternity for someone who needs internet access to work from home... hope he gets his life back on track soon
