I just need to get this off my chest. I moved into my new place at the end of August this year (2023). I decided to get Virgin broadband. Simple enough you would think ? It turned out the previous occupant had left a debt with Virgin. So there was some kind of restriction on the property. I had to send ID and proof of tenancy etc. Eventually I sorted that. On Friday my new Hub 5 arrived! Exciting right ? Wrong. It wouldn't work. Just had a red flashing light. I tried re - setting it and turning it on and off. Made sure the cables were all tight. Still just a red flashing light. I was so [MOD EDIT: Language] off! Is it too much to ask for the thing to work ? Why is there always a problem ?

Sounds like the incoming cable is disconnected. You will need a manned install. If you wait here a day or two a VM Mod will pick this up and arrange. Otherwise you’ll have to ring in.
