Moving socket

[tbourner]

I've tried finding on the website how to book someone to come and move my Cable&Wireless input point to a new location on my wall, but I can't find anything about that as an option!

We also haven't had a working phone line for several years, but that's actually a benefit as we can just use our mobiles and not come home to spam answerphone messages every day 😄 . But even so, I also looked for phone line faults and get stuck in some kind of loop of the same 3 or 4 pages.

Anyone any idea how to book a person to come and move our point? And maybe to fix our phone line at the same time?

Phone in to customer support. They will move the socket and rewire it to where you want it.  Charge is £25.

Thanks, but on the website it says to do everything via the website if possible rather than phoning - isn't there a way to request it without phoning? Considering I don't have a working Virgin phone.

If you can wait here for a while a forum staff member may pick this up and help.

Hi @tbourner 

You can call VM on  freephone number 0800 052 0422 then option 2 faults.

When calling Faults you will hear the automated response asking you to press 1 for the link to online support etc.

Ignore all the options and don't press any buttons then you should be placed into a queue and an agent should pick up the phone.

You could try the text messaging service. Just send  a text with a description of Faults  to 07533 051809. Your message will go into a queue and a representative will respond to you as soon as possible.

It's not actually a fault, and they do say to keep phone lines available for those with more urgent needs. I'm currently on some kind of WhatsApp chat with them, which is good.

I can see that members of the community have advised of the charge to move a socket within your home and how to go about requesting it. I believe you've already requested for this to go ahead with the team.
