Both neighbours have virgin media installed. But I've been told that I can't receive any services. I've contacted virgin 4 times, they were supposed to call me back. But never do. Every house on the road is listed when you check to see if you can get the service except mine.

Thanks, Emily.

Hi Zak,

 

I am having the same issue. We have a new house built after the rest. Every other house in the close can get services but not us. I tried filling in the form and calling, but nobody is understanding our situation and are just trying to go through the packages that we can't even purchase!!

Hopefully, you will have some insight on what to do now?

Thanks

Thanks for your post samhw,

 

Have you spoken to the team company built the property for you?

 

It's often the case that companies that build a number of properties, have an agreement with Virgin Media and access to exclusive offers. 

 

It may well be worth speaking to them to see if they, not only have offers available to you, but if you can be connected to our network, or if you have already

 

Kindest regards,

Hi

I have same problem as several time pointed in this topic.

I will move to a new flat. Tried to order broadband from virginmedia. When I enter the postcode, the neighbours in the left and right of my flat can get the service, but I can't (my apartment No is not in the list). Can this be malfunction in database? How I can ensure that it is possible or not? If not, can I ask to install the service for that flat?

 

Thanks.

Thanks for the post and welcome to our community.

 

You can confirm this with the sales team over 0800 183 1234, however, can we please confirm if you're renting or buying the flat in question? If renting you'd need to confirm if this may have been due to the home owner or building owners permissions. 

 

Thanks, Emily

Hi,

I have the same situation. Every house down my road is listed to be able to receive Virgin Media when you check to see if you can get the service except mine. I have the little Virgin Media access hole outside my property and I have contacted Virgin Media loads of times and they even sent an engineer to check once who I spoke and he said nothing is wrong but for some reason the website says I still can't get Virgin media. Please can someone look into this and finally resolve it - I have been wanting to sign up to Virgin Media for months now but it seems it's a situation where the 'computer says no' so I can't get it. 

 

Thanks,

Hello,

I am having similar issues has highlighted above from other posters.

i will be moving to new property and would like to keep my package with Virgin. Unfortunately, when I search for the address, (Number 6), it does not list as being able to receive services.

The strange thing is, numbers 1/3/5/7/9 can receive it, as aswell as every number from onwards 10-50, but the evens 2/4/6/8 cannot. The houses are not new build, and our house no.6 is in middle of both 5&7. It looks like an error but I’ve had no look trying to get an answer.

Would someone be able to look into this for me please?

Thank you

Ben
