New Fibre Phone Adaptor

I have been told to connect the adaptor to my hub and the other end to my phone.  The problem is the Hub is in my Study and the phone line is in the Hall.

My main cable goes from the street into a box on the outer wall of my house.  From there I have 3 separate cables that go in to the house at different places.  One into the Lounge for the TV, one into the Study for Broadband and one into the Hall for the Landline.#

Could someone please advise how I set this up, as there is no help on the Virgin Media site and there does not appear to be any options when I ring up to let me speak to someone on this issue.

A very confused Roy

Re: New Fibre Phone Adaptor

Hi @roybab

 

Thanks for posting on our community forum!

 

Just to confirm, was you being upgraded from the normal landline to our 21CV service?

Re: New Fibre Phone Adaptor

Hi Travis

I can't see anything on the Adaptor I have received that mentions "21CV Service".  I just received a very short adaptor from Virgin Media and on the card it says "Your phone service will be switched to our fibre network" I subsequently got a letter saying "your home phone services are changing on the 16th March 2022" and if I don't set up the adaptor that my current home services will no longer work and I won't be able to make or receive calls.

Regards
Roy

Re: New Fibre Phone Adaptor

Hi Pauline_Z

It is correct that I spoke with someone at VM yesterday and was told I would receive a text within 4 hours with a date and time for a tech appt. 
Typically no such text has been received so I joined this forum this morning to try and establish if others were experiencing the same problem and if so what the solution might be since it appears that a tech appt is not forthcoming. 
If the BM system shows that a tech appt is required can you do anything to ensure that such an appointment is in fact made and kept. 
Look forward to hearing from you.
