Hi again Dean,

You sure want that hub 5 don't you? 😉

Fingers crossed that you'll get one soon.

The latest update (some info below) on the hub 5 from the following /Digital-life/Hub-5 Blog page 

"FAQ

How can I get a Hub 5? / I’m on Gig1 Fibre and need the Hub 5 to maximise my service

We’re rolling the Hub 5 out in phases, and we’re emailing specific groups of customers over time to invite them to order ahead of a wider launch in 2022. Only customers who receive the email invite will be able to order for the time being.

Why is the rollout being phased?

We’re ironing out some kinks around customers who have Gig1, Intelligent WiFi Pods, and home phone via hub. Once we've addressed these issues we'll start to include these customers in the rollout. You'll receive an email with an invite to order when this is ready.

Update 24th Feb 22: we've started to send email invites to a small number of customers who have home phone via hub ahead of offering this more widely to this cohort of customers. We'll share an update when we have some more news."

I haven't seen any more official information on the Stream Box.

Would definitely be happy to trial the Hub 5 😁 also interested in trialing the entertainment service if this has been expanded to multi channel customers. 

Looking for solution for an additional box for basic use but without the extra charge and cabling

 I'd be interested in taking part in any hub 5 or streamer trials as well

Hi @dmason197

If you have filled out the form to express your interest, you will be contacted directly if you are successful for the trial 🙂

[dmason197]

Well I've not even had any acknowledgement I'm signed up for Virgin Media trials?

Is there any further news regarding the Virgin HUB FIVE 🤔 😅 👀 

Kind regards

Hello @dmason197,

Welcome back, thanks for posting.

I am sorry but the Hub-5's are still on trial, they are being selected to customers at random.

Many thanks,
