Hi @tel29 

Welcome to our community forums and thank you for your first posts.

Sorry to hear you have been losing signal with your TV service. We can understand this is not ideal and we want to best help. Are you losing signal on multiple channels? Does this happen on live TV or on demand? What happens after rebooting your device? https://www.virginmedia.com/help/virgin-tv-restart-or-reset-your-box#tab2

Thanks,

Hi tel29, 

Thanks for coming back to us on this one with an update. 

We're sorry the reboot hasn't helped. I've done a deep dive into your connection and TV boxes and have found a few things that need addressing. 

We won't be able to fix things remotely so I would like to arrange for an engineer to come to take a look at this for you. I just need to confirm the address to ensure we are booking the visit on the correct account. 

I have sent you a private message regarding this. Just click on the little plum envelope at the top right-hand side of the page to access your inbox.

Thanks,

➡ The technician will confirm during their visit if any of these instances apply, and if so, a £25 charge will be applied to your account.
