PS5 suddenly stopped connecting to WiFi
Has been ok for a year on the network and now saying this “Can’t connect to the server within the time limit. There might have been a problem in connecting to the network, or PlayStation Network or the server of the service provider might be temporarily busy”23Views0likes2CommentsHub 3 constant red light
My virgin hub 3 router has a constant red light on the front for the past 3 months. I have followed all the reset instructions and move its location but it has made no difference. It also regular closed WiFi signal to the TV boxes. Having read this fourm it looks like it needs replaced but I cant get trough the self help guides to speak to a rep on the issue. Can someone please help here? Thanks James51Views0likes5CommentsVAT receipts?
I need VAT receipts for my Virgin Media invoices but there doesn't seem to be the functionality in the Billing section of my account to obtain these. I would be grateful for assistance.

Dear Virgin Media Team and Community Members, I am posting this detailed report to highlight the significant delays and poor communication I've experienced with my broadband installation. As a new customer, I expected a smooth process, but it's been anything but. I'm hoping an official VM representative can investigate my case urgently, provide a firm resolution, and confirm compensation details. Below is a comprehensive overview of the situation, including timelines, communications, and impacts. Contract and Order Details: - Service Address: Eastleigh, SO50 - Contract Summary Sheet Created: 6th November 2025 - Contract Summary Sheet Number: 100387XX1587 - Minimum Contract Length: 24 months - Services Ordered: M500 Broadband (Full Fibre Connection) + Netflix Standard with Ads - Broadband Speeds (as per contract): Advertised: Download 516 Mbps / Upload 52 Mbps Normally Available: Download 498-542 Mbps / Upload 48-52 Mbps Minimum: Download 258 Mbps / Upload 26 Mbps Detailed Timeline and Delays: - 6 November 2025: Originally promised completion around this time after contract signed on 6th Nov. - Mid November 2025: Surveyor visited and identified "additional/extra work" needed near roadside and request complete way leave application form - 4th December 2025: First rescheduled installation date – missed, no show. Reason given: extra work on outside. There is completed the wayleave form and returned - 18th December 2025: Second rescheduled date – again delayed with same "extra work" excuse. - Current (31st December 2025): Now pushed to 10th January 2026. Still no progress, no permit details, no subcontractor info. I've called Pre-Install Team (0800 052 1734) and Customer Services (0345 454 1111) multiple times – always "waiting on contractor" or "extra work required". I've checked Hampshire Council and one.network myself – no VM roadworks permits listed for my postcode. Interim Solution Issues: VM suggested using a broadband dongle or extra SIM card. I purchased one as advised, but signal in SO50 area is extremely poor – frequent drops, low speeds, completely unusable for Work from Home (Zoom/Teams calls impossible). I've told VM this multiple times. They verbally promised reimbursement for my costs and compensation, but nothing in writing yet, and no clear amounts or dates. Impact: This has caused major disruption to my work-from-home setup, extra costs, and a lot of stress. The repeated missed dates and vague excuses are unacceptable. Compensation Expectations: Under Ofcom Automatic Compensation: - Missed appointments: £31.19 each time - Delayed start: £6.24 per day from first missed promised date This already adds up to a significant amount. Interim dongle does NOT reduce this entitlement as it's inadequate. I also want full separate reimbursement for my SIM/dongle costs. Requests: 1. Please urgently review order and provide written confirmation (email or PM) of: - Exact reason for delays and "extra work" - Firm installation date (no more changes) - Subcontractor details and any permit status 2. Confirm full Ofcom automatic compensation calculation and credit timeline 3. Confirm reimbursement process for my interim costs 4. If this cannot be resolved soon, provide penalty-free cancellation option Any advice from others in Eastleigh/Hampshire with similar driveway or delays work? How did you get it resolved or claim compensation? Thank you – really hoping the VM team can step in and sort this quickly. Best regards, AlexIntermittent connection
I’ve been having this issue for months where my connection is perfect for maybe a few days to sometimes over a week, then it will just completely disconnect for hours, for days if not weeks. I’ve had an engineer come round, they replaced my hub with a hub 5 (originally a hub 3) which seemed great at the time but the issue just never fully went away. Done all i can to attempt to fix it, but realistically there’s not a lot i can do. this is todays connection: https://www.thinkbroadband.com/broadband/monitoring/quality/share/42b53d2b86f43b5e4cb51298e5366c734a636424 The above images are some of the worst days ive had but there have been only maybe 5/6 days like this so far (a majority of the time its just 20 minutes then its back for maybe 15)210Views0likes9CommentsHub 5.0 Connection Loss

I’m living in postcode B90. During these months ,the boardband service was keeping unstable. The service was keeping on and off especially on Sat, Sun or Public Holidays. It’s totally disappointed. Is that the services demand over load the server ?17Views0likes0CommentsHub 5 dropout
Afternoon, I recently contacted VM to discuss possibilty of obtaining a pod to assist an issue in 1 room of our house that has low wifi signal and they accepted that 1 was required, but as i refused to pay the £8 monthly charge (i don't agree with it), they then offered to upgrade my b/b to 1gig package and sent the new hub5. Since it has been about 10 days now, i am finding the Hub 5 keeps dropping signal in that my phone says connected to wifi but no internet access. Having used the VM Connect app, it does a test and says unable to connect to network but then it can connect instantly and says all is good. I have also noticed the wifi coverage is nowhere near as good as it should be in other areas of the house, rather than the 1 initial room that we had previously. In the room where the hub is, we have full strength wifi. Reading the forums now, it appears many other people have experienced similar issues with Hub5 so hopefully someone from VM can help here as the webchat option is waste of time in my experience.
