Hi Adrian,

The quickest way to get a remote would be to call 150 from your Virgin phone, mobile or landline, or 0345 454 1111 from any other phone or wait for a member of the forum team to pick this up which could be 2 to 3 day's.

When phoning choose the option to report a fault, then ignore all the options offered and you should then be placed into a queue to speak to someone.

Hi AdrianWhyte 

In the meantime, if you haven't already done so,  you could download the TV Control app and use that as a temporary remote.

There are links to download the app for ios and android systems on the following page :-

My V6 remote on/off button is not responding.  I tried ordering on the VM site but kept going around in circles.  I tried using the chat function but that wasn't working albeit was within the working time.

Can anyone suggest a solution - getting frustrated.
