Outside brown box cover

[lakelins]

I am re-joining Virgin broadband and have noticed that the cover on the brown box on the outside wall has come off and is now broken. I was just trying to get hold of a new cover but this seems to be difficult. Could anyone advise on how to get a new cover without the requirement to pay for a service visit?

Are you getting a quickstart pack? If you go for the Tech install option they will refit that at the same time.  Always a "safer" option in case other issues are present

When are you planning to rejoin?

Post up a photo of the box/damage.

Thanks John,

Already signed up for the self-install as I had the connection anyway. After signing up I checked the box and found it broken. Just a bit annoying to pay for tech install when the cover can only cost a pound or so.

Just wait until you are up and running and then call it in as a fault and they will send a Tech to fix it for free. A VM person can also arrange that for you on here - once you are up and running with an active account.

Post up the photo to help with that once you are connected

Hi lakelins,

Thanks for posting and welcome to our community 🙂

Sorry to hear the outside box is damaged, so I can arrange to get this fixed for you I'll need to confirm a few details first. I've popped you over a private message for this (purple envelope top right hand corner)

Hi there.  I have recently moved house and have virgin broadband up and running.  When I moved in the brown box was smashed.  Can I organise a replacement one? Thanks
