Start a Virgin Media Free Trial Securely With a Virtual Credit Card

Virgin Media offers broadband services, TV packages, home phone service, and mobile phone packages. It's a convenient way to get many services needed for modern living. But can you get a , or are you stuck with a bill to try their service? It is possible to get a trial period for free, but Virgin Media doesn't make it easy.

Here's what you need to know, and how DoNotPay can make it simple with a free virtual credit card.

Can You Get a Free Trial From Virgin Media?

Although they don't offer it on their website, it is possible to get a short . When you sign up for their service, you are allowed 14 days to determine if it's reliable enough for you. If you aren't satisfied during this "cooling-off period," you're allowed to opt out of the contract without cost.

This allows you to try all the services you're interested in so you can get a full idea if they offer what you want. But be aware: you don't have much time to make up your mind.

Will Your Virgin Media Free Trial Automatically Renew Into a Paid Subscription?

Technically, the free trial is the first 14 days of a paid subscription. So it's not that you'll be automatically enrolled in a contract, but that you have a brief period to get out of the contract without added fees. Once it's in place, canceling a contract isn't easy, but we can help you with that, too.

If you can opt out before the 14-day cool-off period is over, that will be the easiest option.

How to Cancel Virgin Media in the First 14 Days

You will have to provide a credit card to sign up for the service, so if you don't cancel in time, that card will be charged for the service every month for the rest of the contract. If you decide you don't want that, be sure to contact the company to cancel within those two weeks.

Here are the best ways to notify Virgin Media: by phone, by post, or through live chat.

1. By Phone

The number to call depends on what type of phone you're calling from.

  • 150 (if calling from a Virgin mobile or landline)
  • 0345 454 1111 (if calling from any other phone)

Call the appropriate number and choose the prompt "If you're thinking of leaving Virgin Media."

2. Post

It's not the most time-efficient solution, but you can write to Virgin Media at:

Virgin Media

PO Box 333

Matrix Court

Swansea SA7 9ZJ

Be careful, because it's easy to exceed the 14-day cool off period if you're using the post.

3. Live Chat

You can also reach customer support through the Virgin Media live chat option. All you have to do is go to their contact page and select "Thinking of leaving." Follow the steps to cancel your service. If you're contacting them outside of business hours, you will have to leave a message so customer care can get back to you.

The DoNotPay Virtual Credit Card Can Help You Avoid Automatic Payments

It's common for people to miss the cancel deadline for a free trial period and end up trapped with recurring charges. When it comes to Virgin Media, if you change your mind after 14 days, you're stuck in an 18-month contract. While it is possible to cancel your contract with Virgin Media, it's much easier to get out of it during the cool-off period.

DoNotPay created our Virtual Credit Card for situations just like this. We generate all the information you need to use a credit card online, including a random number. You can use this card to sign up for any service. But once the free trial ends, the service is unable to charge the card, because there's no money or bank account associated with the card.
