No wall socket for home kit

apurvagupta100

Hello,

I ordered a new VM broadband connection and I got the self install kit. I started following the steps but found out I don’t have a VM wall socket to plug into. What should I do now? I need help from a technician. How do I contact one?

Thanks

not all installs have an internal box

start outside and look for the external wall box - 6" square ish usually on wall facing road or pavement - brown or grey usually - follow any cables that come from it and go inside - if there are non look inside opposite external box as they may just have drilled through wall - as said it may just be a cable rather than an internal wall box

if you find a cable you need one of these to attach the cable that came with the quick start kit

if you still cannot find anything then you need to ring to book a tech

Hi Tony,

I have checked everywhere but I don’t see any suitable box or socket in the building. Please help me get in touch with a technician. 

Thanks

Thanks so much, Tony!

I called that number before but didn’t know I was supposed to choose “Activate connection”. To anyone else who runs into this in the future, follow this selection route: Broadband -> confirm post code -> activate connection -> need help, and they’ll connect you to a customer service agent

Hello,

 I just got the home kit but I see no Wall socket with the Pin, The only wall socket labelled V is traced to a NTI wall socket.

Please help urgently.
