    Hi AmosMoses 👋

    Thanks for posting, and welcome to the Forums.

    As mentioned by Hosay299, the Area Reference can be found directly in your online account, or through the paperwork you received when taking our services.

    For this postcode, the Area Reference is 01-NW. If you're looking to use the Area Reference to sign up to online services such as My Virgin Media you will only need to use the numbers (01), and not the dash and the letters (-NW).

    Cheers,

      Hi There, 

      I also can't seem to find my area code.  Any idea what the area code for BS49 is?

      Thanks Much

        Hey Shibbykez,
        Welcome to the community and thanks for taking the time to post here on the forums. If you haven't already got the code since you last posted, your area code is 07.

        Kind Regards,

      Hi Bunter99 👋 Welcome to the community forum. Thanks for posting! 

      Glad to hear you have joined us! 

      The Area code a G66 Postcode would fall under is 28. 

      It is worth noting that you need to have services which are active and installed for My VM registration to work. Hopefully this helps get you sorted! Let us know if there's anything else you need our help with. Wishing you all the best. 🌞

        Hi Molly,

        I appreciate the response and I'm now set up, thanks! But while I was waiting I just kept trying codes in the off chance one might work and it did. Luckily I started in reverse order!

        But thanks for your reply.👍

      For some reason you gave me the wrong code. Rather than wait for another wrong answer I decided to endure your tedious telephone helpline who were eventually able to provide me with the correct code.

      As a new customer the number of problems that I've experienced really have piled up one on top of another and I'm already regretting signing up with you. I am already looking forward to changing internet providers when my contract comes to an end
