How do I get reconnected?

We're waiting for an external cable to be connected outside our house.  The new one has been run, but it's not patched into the distribution box.  We're currently connected to our neighbours box as a workaround.  Our phone cable has been chopped off which means our line is dead.  I can't get anyone from Virgin Media to tell me when this will be rectified.  I've logged a complaint, but keep getting told the work is completed.  At my wits end!!  Does anyone know how to escalate this to a manager?

I’m still waiting to get reconnected 

I have finally been reconnected, after 2 months.  How do I go about claiming compensation for loss of service?

Hi @Welkel,

Glad to hear you have been reconnected. Bill credit is automatically applied, if eligible.

You can find out more on our Auto Compensation Scheme here

All the best!

I’ve just received a full bill from Virgin Media. Why wasn’t the compensation applied?

Hi Welkel

Thanks for coming back to the thread. I have submitted a manual Automatic Compensation review today to the team. They'll look into this and if owed compensation, ensure it's applied. I'll be in touch when I know more.
