Account retrieval error code

[Jennihi12355]

Hi i received my new tv box and WiFi hub yesterday . Ive been trying to set it up today after receiving a text to say it was all ready to use. 

I'm getting error code CS1011 ( we can’t seem to find your account details . Please call customer service ) . 

so I called customer service and was told there are problems with the on demand services at them moment etc  and that this would be dealt with in the next 1-2 hours . 
This has now passed and still no tv service at all just this error code . Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi @Jennihi12355 

There have been a few issues with activations for new customers and customers receiving new equipment since the nationwide outage yesterday.

Systems should all be up and running properly tomorrow so the activation should go through then.

If it doesn't I suggest calling  0800 953 9500 to activate the box. You will need the box serial number, and your account number and area code.

You could also try contacting  New accounts and Set Up for them to complete the setup and activation. That would be options 1,1,1 and 4 if dialling 150 from a Virgin landline or mobile, or options 1,1,2 and 4  if dialling 0345 4541111 from any other phone

Thank you . Fingers crossed it’s up and running tomorrow. I have already called the number to activate so thank you for that suggestion too . 
I wasn’t sure if it was linked to the other issues others were having due to the error code . 
thanks again for your help
