My neighbour recently got connected but I'm not eligible for some reason
Hi, I've been actively trying to get Virgin to come connect my house for years now. Filling in the form showing interest dozens of times but have had no success in the 10+ years of living at this property. Recently my neighbour inquired about getting Virgin and had to get permission to have Virgin come and potentially run the line across my property. This has now come and gone and I know that my neighbour has access now. I've called to the customer support team to try and get an engineer out to survey/connect my property but only get transferred from department to department with nobody knowing what to do in this situation. Allegedly an engineer came out and decided it wasnt economically viable to pursue connecting the property but how come my neighbour who's further from a main road has been connected? I'd greatly appreciate any help in this matter. Thanks.Moved from Sky to Virgin Media
Hi I've recently joined Virgin Media and now waiting for the equipment to arrive. I read online and when going through the process the following is mentioned "One Touch Switch: What is it and how does it work?" I selected to notify yourselves when I want to Switch across - but how does this work as its extremely difficult and time consuming to get through to an actual person to speak to? Does the Switch happen once my equipment has been activated, or can I install and let you know a specific date that I want my broadband to be switched on and cut off from Sky? Any help would be appreciated since as being a new Customer trying to reach you via telephone is an utter nightmare so far.... Thanks ZackSee 403 forbidden only with Virgin wifi for a ticket website
I want to buy concert tickets from Melon Ticket Global, which is a legal ticketing website in South Korea. I can open the website with my data or with other providers' wifi, but can't open it with the Virgin Media wifi, which is also my home wifi. I saw "403 Forbidden" when I tried to access it with Virgin. Unluckily, I can't use my data inside my flat, thanks to the concrete building :( I think this might be due to that Virgin Media uses its own DNS address. I tried to change my home wifi's DNS to public IPs (Google, Cloudflare), but it still didn't work. I used NordVPN at home, still not working. I kind of doubt that Virgin Media forces me to use its own DNS. Maybe I'm asking too much, but I do feel very inconvenient to go outside to access the website. And I'm still not sure it's Virgin Media banning Melon Ticket Global, or the other way around.Re-routing cable outside property
I have my fibre cable run from the back lane of my property, pinned to an outside wall running along the wall, around a side gate and then around the outside gable wall of the house into the house. I'm having some work done on the gate \ side wall which will need the cable re-routing from where it is, or, the tidier and easier option would be to run a cable from a newly installed cabinet on the street oputside the front of the house. Ive confirmed its a virginmedia cabinet but how do I find out whether its ready to have live installations running from it - it'd be by far the easiest and tidiest option but trying to ask this question through customer services hasnt got me anywhere. Any help appreciated.
Is this right?
Image Removed I have M500 package but am almost unable to use the internet at times...is this as bad as it appears to be or am I just not understanding something here? All I get from the app on my phone is that if it's the same in 24 hours virgin will look into this, but its been like this since the weekend at least.Residential address registered as business
Hi, I have been told my address is currently registered as a business address. It’s a 5 bedroom detached property, there is no business here. Customer service and sales have said that they can manually override this, (which is what they have done in the past as there is Virgin HBB and tv currently live at the address), but I would really rather it be changed to residential to avoid having to jump through these hoops! Thanks, EmmaIntermittent Signal in your area
I’ve noticed in the past week or so that my internet speed has been dropping randomly. I’m meant to be getting 350 download and was up until this last week where now it can drop as low as 100. It seems to fluctuate randomly. When I run a check on the VM app I get the intermittent signal on my area message. Rebooting the hub multiple times doesn’t seem to change anything. any advice or help emojis be greatly appreciated

I have been sent one of the crème coloured WiFi pods which the limited instructions say to plug on, give it 10 mins, and it should work. The light on mine keeps flashing and the VM Connect app says it is offline. I tried relocating the pod to within a couple of metres away from the router just to see if it would connect but it still doesn’t work. I also tried to remove and re-add it via the VM Connect app but it wont re-add. There seems to be limited support for getting these working, would anyone know where I could look next please? Thanks
