I don’t have a virgin wall socket

Hi, just recently joined Virgin, I ordered a quick start kit but I don’t have a virgin wall socket. Is there any way to have an engineer come and install it? Anyone also know the price for an installation?

There may not be a socket.  It may just be a cable, so check outside for a brown or grey omnibox and trace the wires going inside.

if you find an internal cable you need one of these

that will let you connect the supplied isolator cable

Hello @Mikhail_Lopez.

 

Welcome to the community page, thank you for posting on here.

 

I am sorry to see you are having issues with your new starter kit.

 

Did you sign up online? Or did you sign up with an agent who checked to see if you would need a installation?

 

Please let me know.

 

Many thanks,
