Upgrade from TiVo to Virgin media 360 - Code error M63
Hi, Upgraded from TiVo to Virgin Media 360 just before 18th December 2025 and received the new 360 remote a few days later, but my box was still awaiting the update to 360 download icon. Anyway I received a text on Friday 2nd January 2026 to say that I’ve successfully been updated to Virgin Media 360. Only problem now my box now says: You have recently had an issue on your account. If you are still experiencing reduced functionality, call us on UNKNOWN. With the following error code: Code M63 means your Virgin Media account isn't set up correctly If you've only just set up your TV box, or have recently called us about this issue, leave the TV box for 2 hours while it connects to our network. If you're still seeing the code, or haven't recently set up the box, please chat to one of our team. This code only affects our Virgin TV V6 boxes and Tivo boxes. Does anyone know if this can be resolved, without the need for a technician visit. I’ve tried the following holding + holding power whilst restarting the box in order to try and force the update and/or holding - whilst restarting but this has not fixed the issue. Anyway advice would be much appreciated. Thank you. 😌266Views0likes5Comments
Virgin 360 is appalling
I’ve just submitted this as a complaint and I’m copying my complaint here. I wish I’d read these reviews before I upgraded. It looks like I’m not the only one. I called three weeks ago to report a minor fault on my TiVo box. I was advised “you need to upgrade to Virgin 360“. Your technician advised me with all confidence, “It’s much better, it’s quicker, you’ll have much more facilities than you have on the V6 system.” I did as I was advised. He was lying through his teeth. Virgin 360 is absolutely atrocious. Far worse than the V6 system I’ve enjoyed for 10-15 years. Far worse in every respect. The only benefit it gives me a occasionally being able to log onto other TV channels such as iPlayer and ITV X, which is of no use to me because I can do that from my smart TV. Let me list for you the way in which it is abysmal. It fails to record programs which I have set. It records a program but only records half of it. It records a completely different program to the one I’ve set, (I was actually watching a TV program late night, pressed record and went to bed, and when I got up the next morning it had recorded something completely different.) Frequently, very often, when I go to play a show I have recorded and which is showing in my recordings I get an error message, saying the show cannot be played. This happens a lot. When I login into iPlayer, next time I go to iPlayer, it wants me to login with a QR code all over again. This has happened to me several times in one week. Logging straight back in is about 50% effective. Numerous programs and channels showing in the TV Guide, I can no longer record. That never happened under V6. In addition, there are all those facilities I used to have that are no longer available. I used to be able to: Pause and go forward in slow motion Pause and go forward a frame at a time. (Useful watching sport). Go forward on record recordings or paused TV 15 minutes at a time. Watch at accelerated speed with Sound. Fast forward and when I press pause, it would jump back slightly so I hadn’t overshot what I was looking for. Move the TV guide forward in two hour blocks. Revert to the previous channel I was watching, with one click of a dedicated button. Subdivide my recordings into movies only, or partially watched. Recover recordings which I had deleted recently. And the remote control had dedicated buttons for, “info“, “subtitles,“ “my recordings” Overall, the previous V6 system apart from one or two minor issues, was flexible, user friendly and extremely robust. In contrast the 360 system is inflexible, flaky, falling apart, not user friendly, not enjoyable to use at all. Absolutely [REMOVED] useless.646Views1like15CommentsScheduled recording
Hi I have had 3 360 but had 2 of them replaced at the weekend so now have one 360 and two of the stream boxes. Since they have been fitted all our schedules for recording are not working it asks me to subscribe to view them? I believe they are linked to the removed boxes I have factory reset the 360 box and it now shows I have 0% recordings but the old schedule recordings are still showing and will not delete. On my go app it still shows my old 360 boxes so I think these need to be removed off my system. I have reached out to the call centre but I don't think they understood what I was saying. Any advice on how to remove the old 360 boxes off the one I still have203Views0likes9CommentsError code CS2214
Hi, the 360 box in the front room will no longer pause or rewind live TV, I can no longer record anything or watch previously recorded programs, ('Error CS2214 - Failed to play recording. There's an issue playing this recording. Please try again'). The box says recording space is full, I deleted over half of the programs, but no space got cleared and after a restart, the deleted programs had returned. I have tried a factory reset, (but kept recordings), but it changed nothing and I have also restarted my router, although how this would affect watching a program on the hard drive I don't get. Is anyone else having this problem and how was it fixed please? Is the hard drive faulty? Thank you Ste223Views0likes8CommentsSerious issue with TV360 recordings
So I have used the 360 box for years with no problems, but in the past month all of my recordings and planned recordings have disappeared twice. The apps stopped working too. An engineer came last week for an outage and afterwards I had to log back into all apps. Despite that, the issue with recordings disappearing has happened again. As I suffer from chronic pain especially in my hands it is very frustrating to say the least. This never happened with my TiVo box in years, and it had not happened at all since moving to the 360 until last month. The service now feels very unreliable. Please confirm if this is a known fault and what Virgin is doing to resolve it.191Views0likes7Comments

How do I fix this please ,I tried ringing up earlier but after 20 minutes on the phone being passed from various bot to bot and not speaking to any humans whatsoever I gave up .192Views0likes4Comments360 upgrade and apps
So, as well as the discussed 'shortcomings' of the supposed 'upgrade' (I wish I could go back to my V6 but apparently you cannot), is there a way to get rid of the 'bloatware' apps? Also, can I add my own apps? Or, are we to just accept that Virgin Media and their owners know better and I am paying for a service that I never agreed to? i.e. most apps I do not use, and you cannot hide/arrange any of them. Please do not tell me sure your most used apps are at the bottom and if you could just scroll past the stuff they are trying to sell me, or tell me to just speak into the device (I do not want to nor feel I should). Why not put the most used apps at the top? Almost like they want you to waste time/effort in passing apps that I might sign up for - no chance. I also feel l like I have been 'duped' into the upgrade...subject: "Your TV box needs an upgrade". Also, feel mis-sold on the 'you aren't getting the most out of your services". Is there a way to cancel a contract early on the basis of a degradation of service? Anyway, its that bad an experience I will not be renewing when my contract ends in December of this year.239Views0likes6Comments360 box stuck on welcome screen.
Several months ago and again a couple of months ago, the box stopped showing the icons for the apps and the channels would not load. I reset the box on the settings menu which fixed the problem both times. Today, the same fault with the missing icons on the apps and the channel not loading happened again. I reset the box on the settings menu and the box was stuck on the welcome screen. I tried resetting the box again by powering on the box while holding the - switch and the On button for 30 seconds. A screen appeared which showed what looked like a download icon. After a few minutes, the welcome screen came on and is stuck there again. Please can you help.936Views0likes9CommentsNo sound on iPlayer on V360
I just updated to Virgin 369 today, and have logged into all the apps I use (Netflix, Disney +, Prime, iPlayer). All are working fine except iPlayer which has no sound. I’m using my TV’s native sound output, no sound d bar or external speakers etc. Connected via HDMI, exactly as was prior to update (when iPlayer had sound)… Whats changed after update and how can I get sound on iPlayer?155Views0likes2Comments
