The media company sent the letter to a potential customer, addressing it to 'Mr Illegal Immigrant' and starting with the words "Dear Immigrant"
The letter from Virgin Media was sent to 24-year-old Aaron Needham, from Strelley, Nottingham, with details about the company's services. Mr Needham is said to have been offended by the letter.
A spokeswoman has apologised to Mr Needham for the blunder. She said: ''We have conducted a full investigation into this very unfortunate isolated incident which we can confirm affects just one customer."
