Thanks for your interest, the competition closed on 12th April 2019

  • Make your own ‘Helping Hands’ Videos
  • Get your video featured on Community
  • Win Prizes!

Hopefully you’ll have seen our Helping Hands channel on YouTube, and our new Help videos section on the Community.

We know how many people have watched these clips over the years and how helpful they are. But what are we missing?

Well, you - our Community members - have always been willing to share your ideas and tips, so we thought why not join the two together?

We’d love it if you would grab a camera, a screen capture device, or even animation software and could share your immense knowledge in a short video.

To kick things off, we’ve got a competition.

You’ve got until 12th April, 2019  to make up to a 2minute video that will help other customers. It could be on, How to change a SIM, how to set up a WiFI booster, to reset a hub or a neat shortcut for using your V6 – whatever you want to share.

The main thing is that it helps other people get the most from their Virgin Media services.

It doesn’t have to be all-singing and all-dancing, just clear and to the point.

Working with our Digital team we’ll be judging each video on how helpful and useful it is, how well it’s been put together, and how clear the message and the instructions are.

Prizes

The winner will get a £100 shopping gift vouchers, and the two runner-up’s will get a £25 shopping voucher each.

Everyone who enters will get a Community badge.

When you’ve made your video, just upload it to YouTube or Vimeo and If you want to password protect it – that’s great. You'll need to register as a community member to enter. Once you've signed up, simply pop a link to your video in the comments below, or if you'd rather keep it private, send it to Kev_B (he's our Community Lead) and we’ll be in touch.

The closing date is Friday 12th April, 2019.

We’re looking forward to seeing all your entries!
