The primary place to report faults or for service requests is Customer Services on 0345 454 1111/150 if you have a VM landline or wait two or three days for a VM staff member to get to your post.

Hi there @Cato671
Thank you so much for your post and welcome back to the community forums, it's great to have you here.
I am so sorry to hear that you have faced an issue with your remote and thank you to Tudor for their advise here so far.
Have you been able to speak to the teams or do you still require assistance?

Hi Cato671 If you go to this address, https://www.virginmedia.com/help/how-to/tv/issues/remote-issues?buspart=uk_soc_cus_cab_gmf_socialmed... choose damaged or whatever the problem is and it will lead you to "order a new controller". I did it this way and had the controller by post within 4 days. In the meantime download Virgin's app "Virgin Media Control" to put a virtual controller on your phone

Hi @Cato671 Thanks for speaking with us today on the forums. 👋🏼
I'm glad we have resolved the issue and have managed to send out a replacement remote control.
As advised - holiday season may cause deliveries to be delayed.
