I need to report a fault on vulnerable & elderly parents landline, tv & broadband.

[japitts]

The quickest way of doing this will be to call from any other phone, 0345 4541111 and follow the options for "I have a fault with my phone service" which I would imagine would flag the vulnerability. I don't know whether TV or broadband faults are flagged in the same way.

Forum staff work through posts on here, but it takes a few days to respond.

The Tivo box in my elderly frail sister's bedroom suddenly stopped working this afternoon.  We need either an engineer or a replacement box as soon as possible.  Please advise,  Thank you

@tinapartPlease call VM C/S on 150 or 0345 4541111 to report your fault. It will (probably) be the quickest way of getting your issue resolved.

Hi tinapart, 

Thank you for your post and welcome to the forums. 

Sorry to hear of the issues that's been had with the equipment. Can I ask if you could expand on what has suddenly stopped working? Is there any lights on the box or does it boot back up etc? 

Cheers.
