Re: You are charging me for broadband
@Simon171 Did you cancel with sky directly?
virgin are not members of the switch scheme and therefore cannot cancel service on a customer's behalf

Re: You are charging me for broadband
Seems you haven't cancelled your Sky broadband subscription. You'll need to call Sky to do that and give the appropriate 14 days notice.,

Re: You are charging me for broadband
As @SKY1992bf indicates, Virgin isn't currently covered by the one-touch-switch system overseen by Ofcom: they were supposed to be well over a year ago, but the ISP industry has repeatedly delayed the widening of the scheme because it just wasn't ready. That means that if you didn't cancel with Sky yourself, Virgin won't (and could not) do it for you and Sky would continue to charge whether or not data was actually flowing over their circuit.
If you did cancel with Sky, received their confirmation email and returned the Sky Hub (where appropriate) then you'll need to pursue a refund from them.
