Hub 6 Arrived - Caked in Dust, Must be a Used One

[mcfc4heatons]

Upgraded to the fasted Broadband package, received a Hub 6 in a plain cardboard box today, the item is caked in dust, clearly a used item. You have to ask yourself which idiot at Virgin thinks it is OK to send stuff to customers like this? Bottom line, I need to send it back, cancel the upgrade and leave Virgin as I have had enough. Can someone advise the best course of action, I do not want to be on the live chat again for god knows how long, all the call centre people on live chat want to do is flog an upgrade

I think it is Hub 5, whatever the latest version is

All kit supplied is rented, so don't expect brand new.

You should, however, expect the device to be in decent condition.

it's going back, iIam not accepting something caked in dust, least of an electronic device

Totally agree. I'm also not a fan of used goods.

Who knows how many times VM's modems have been passed around. Who knows what's happened to a 10th hand modem? Does VM have a biohazard disinfection policy??? Could have been urinated on for all you know or even worse could be infected with herpes or something.
