Tuning in

Team,

I will try my best to be short.

a) had perfect account

b) moved a few streets away, techs visited and did their thing..

c) one box remains 'no catch-up available or my previously saved shows that were fine'

d) awaiting was appears to be an account problem, but tonight I opened up "my VM app" as I'm aware I'm due to typically pay $>> VM app states I'm disconnected, and my WIFI HUB shows nothing of my box's + VM4 gig hub also.

£ not a problem, but worried I) them will cut me off ii) I can't / sys wonts tell me what to pay iii) very nice local techs also stumped

ALL I DID is MOVE 5 Minutes away.

Trying to maintain my account, but Sysop peeps ain't got a clue. please & thank you Team.

Respectfully, John 'Paul

p.s: X2 1tb 360 & X2 mini 360 w/1gig Inc 220v powered amp for the above (VM Tech has passed all incoming stats). Has my x1 TB 360 took a sh*t by simply moving house????

Hi @bealerDSB 

I hope you are settling into your new property. Sorry to see about the issues with VM.

You are maybe looking at the details from your old property and not the new one in the VM app as when you move house you are given a new account number, so possibly VM haven't performed what they term a Move and Transfer which transfers your details across from the old account to the new one.

A member of the Home Move should be able to rectify that, or a member of the Forum team may pick it up in a day or two.

Error code 100:70 is displayed during initial setup when the box has not yet received its entitlement for Live TV.  This is normally resolved within a few minutes, however it sometimes needs a specialist team to update the VM systems with your box details and also .a possible tech visiit to swap the box.

CS3400 normally means On demand is unavailable, this may be due to your internet set up. (that could also be what's causing the 100:70 error preventing the box completing it's initial set up) Basically either the VM Hub is offline or Ethernet / Wi-Fi connection is not present.

Check power and RF connections to VM Hub and ensure the Ethernet cable if you are using one is securely connected.

If the 360 boxes are connected over Wi-Fi, reconnect the box to Wi-Fi network from the Settings > Network  menu.

EDIT I would also suggest double checking the white co-axial cables are solidly connected without any kinks.

My bad....forgot to add the code#'s currently from the splash pop-ups, whilst trying to play "prior perfect recordings at my previous home address", of last week are;

CS3400

and

100:70

grrrrr

P.P.S; my typical monthly happily paid bill is normally £128.86 ~ £132.49. [just so admin is aware I'm not a pen pusher looking to scrape a barrel]

Feel free {invitation} to elevate this ticket#, if you dare. As I'm sure you can sense this is NOT a 'coax' boom hiccup..

*hot* seems many people are viewing this valid post. Yet, current within this VM technician "forum" appear to have -1 gumption or historical basis; to chime in..

[hold off on the WiFi strength, power cord length, 2.4ghz land line EMF delta]

 

I'll post the findings in a few days Team.

Shame though, bet VM will swap 'the box'

Will check. Cheers mate (gonna put the bricked box cat5 direct)

Didn't think of that.

Updates to follow x

Wish I could add the photo off my screen that I've just taken.

Decided to use the factory reset option on the box and keep recordings, etc..

cat5 direct into box straight from VM4 outlet(test = pass)

still buggered. dam I wish I could post my lately screen on this forum. //I got a yellow triangle top left corner, with 12 picons (all nationalities,dunno why,VM is British)...saying ->

account error CS1011, we are unable to retrieve your account details please contact us. (Amongst same picons re: translation to French Swiss Germany Romania, everything.

//break//

I watched "Rip Off Britain BBC1" yesterday morning. Virgin Media was front and center... Apparently you, VM, got the highest accolade for the past 2 years ref:crap provider / service -_-

I worked & almost died four times whilst in the middle east; working as a mercenary for the U.S Army (D.O.D)

Terrible that in a civilized Country, easy protocols cannot be upheld. I'm adjusting fire towards your ombudsman.

Thought not

You can post a picture by clicking on the camera icon, and there is also the optionif it's too large to resize the photo.

The 360 box is used in other countries such as Holland. Even the older TIVO based systems had the same type of opening screen as they were used in other territories.

account error CS1011, we are unable to retrieve your account details please contact us. 

Confirmed CS1011 is an account retrieval error, this may just be a system error which might be able to be rectified  over the phone by speaking to TV Faults (option 2 when dialling from a VM landline or mobile) rather than sending an engineer.

Sir Richard Branson is not connected to VM/Liberty Global. He used to own three-quarters of Virgin Mobile, whereas now he gets paid £8.5million each year for the use of the Virgin brand name. He does not own any part of Virgin Media.

Hi bealerDSB, 

 

Welcome to the Community and thank you for posting. 

 

I am sorry to hear of the issues you have been experiencing since your move. 

 

I have taken a look from our side and can see you have recently had a visit from one of our technicians. How did this go?

Have you been able to use the service?

 

Thanks 

 

 

Nat

Nat, all sorted (my X2 1tb box's received new firmware), don't know if this was countrywide or just for me.

 

Took a long time mind you..

Just waiting for my Virgin media app to populate my upcoming bill
