When will the Broadband in my area be available

Hi there , 

we had the virgin cables installed in the street with boxes almost a year ago in WS5  area in Walsall.

still no signs of any broadband activation.

Could anyone /customer support from virgin help  about the usual timeline for this as I want to change my  service provider so wanted to know before signing another 2 years with another provider with poor service . Thanks

  • Hey ALAM804, thank you for reaching out and for your interest in joining us.

    As anything with this, planning permission and gaining permits can take a long time.
