Replacement TV Box

Hi there,

Bit of an unusual one, I signed up around two years ago purely for the 1GB internet package. At the time, I was advised that taking it with TV worked out cheaper, so I agreed.

However, I never received a TV box when my router arrived. I didn’t chase it up at the time as I mainly use my smart TV, but now that my renewal has come around, I’d like to finally get what I’ve been paying for.

I’ve been getting a lot of calls about renewing, but whenever I mention that I’d like my TV box sent out before renewing, the calls seem to end abruptly. I’ve since renewed online, and I’d just like to know how I can have my TV box delivered.

Any help would be appreciated, the phone support hasn’t been very helpful so far.

Thank you.

    What does it actually say on your Contract?  Which TV box were you supposed to get?  Be careful you are not charged for non return of a TV box you apparently never received.  You really should have reported this at the time, as it may have gone astray in the post originally, and VM think you have one.

      Thanks for the reply.

      I know, I know. Classic procrastination and putting off annoying phone calls!

      My bill says Mixit TV & Virgin TV 360 Box.

        Hey saquibutt, thank you for reaching out  and a warm welcome to the community we are so sorry to hear about this TV issue.

        To confirm you never got a box at all throughout the contract?

    First of all you need to decide what sort of TV Box you want. The standard box now is a Stream box that doesn't record. Is that good enough for you? Otherwise you may need to look elsewhere.
