Activating Volt benefits
Good morning :) A few weeks ago, my service with Virgin Broadband started and early last week I got an email from O2 (who I have been a customer with for years) saying they have activated my Volt benefits. I can see I now have the increased data limit on my O2 account. I am yet to hear anything from Virgin about the extra benefits though. The update came from O2 because I had to manually prompt them about something (I was having trouble with the app) and thought to ask off the back of it. We have attempted to follow the guidance with the My Virgin Media app, but I'm stuck in a loop and I am unable to find a way to activate the benefits as mentioned. It could be that the address format isn't matching up correctly (it doesn't allow me to format them the same way for both O2 and Virgin) but I have read there is a way for this to be manually activated on Virgin's end. Is there anyone here who can help me activate my Volt benefit? Many thanks!41Views0likes1CommentUnable to get volt benefits on my o2 sim even though my volt Benefits are active
Unable to get volt benefits on my o2 sim even though my volt Benefits are active with virgin media. Signed up With Virgin and o2 start of July and been having a nightmare since. Not getting any benefits of volt on my o2 and keep getting same link which isn’t working to try and link them together! Need help please68Views0likes3CommentsVolt Speed Boost
Morning all, I am an exisiting O2 customer, and signed up to Virgin as a new customer on 22/7. My O2 data has doubled and is showing as active, but my Virgin speed had not yet doubled. Is it abnormal that they activate asynchronously? I'm aware it can take up 14 days but that will be on the 5/8, so I accept I'm preempting this. Any advice is appreciatedSolved48Views0likes2CommentsVolt benefits on my Virgin Media Broadband
Hi, I have very recently (last week) rejoined VM as a returning/new customer. Having successfully installed the Hub 5 and being back on-line I want to know if I need to do anything to gain the speed benefit on the broadband? I was informed that the 516 Mb broadband would increase to 1Gb as part of the VM/O2 Volt benefits. My O2 mobile speed appears to have increased but the VM Broadband is still reporting to be operating at 516Mb. Is there anything I need to do or will this speed increase be applied the coming days? Thanks92Views0likes4CommentsVolt Benefits Not Applied
My M500 broadband was activated on Sat 5th July and my O2 and VM accounts have matching emails and street addresses. The volt webpages say that my data and speed boats will be automatically applied with 14 days but nothing so far. Since it's not been automatic is there anything that can be done to give it a bit of a nudgeSolved68Views0likes1CommentMissing volt benefits
Hi, I’ve had vm broadband for 3 weeks and I’ve been a long time o2 mobile customer. I have received my volt double data for my mobile which was applied very quickly without issue. However, I’m awaiting the double broadband speed. Can support help with this? I did try to follow the guidance https://www.virginmedia.com/help/virgin-o2-benefits and chose “Still waiting for volt benefits” which then goes to a broken link on o2… which wasn’t helpful.

After a recent holiday my wife and I discovered that while I could use the Volt benefit O2 bolt-on Travel Inclusive Zone, she couldn't and ended up incurring a charge for using data outside the normal roaming zone. Our Virgin account is in my name because we couldn't open it as a 'joint' account when we first signed-up, many years ago. We both had Virgin mobiles which transferred to O2 in the big switchover and the Volt extras only seem to apply to my mobile. Is there any way my wife's mobile can be included for her to gain the Volt extra roaming benefit?274Views0likes1CommentVolt Benefit
Hi, Can anyone help? I have both O2 mobile and VM broadband (installed 4 weeks ago). Volt benefits applied to O2 within 3 days of VM installation. To date no volt benefits applied to VM broadband. Can anyone please help with how to activate VM Volt benefits? Thanks287Views0likes1CommentVolt Benefits
In early April this year I renewed Virgin Media contract with a bundle that includes the 500Mbps broadband package. At the same time I agreed to swap my mobile phone to O2 and looked forward to benefiting from the broadband speed and data allowance increases that the Volt scheme offered. A couple of weeks later I noticed that my package on the Virgin Media website was showing as having been increased from M350 to M500. I have never been on this broadband speed and when I questioned it, the representative I was chatting with agreed that this was a mistake and said that they would submit the necessary form to get our broadband increased to the 1Gbps speed that I was expecting. I subsequently received an email confirming that this change would be made and which noted that this could take up 14 days to come into effect. That was 15 days ago, and still nothing has changed and I have heard nothing further. As for O2, the MyO2 webpage acknowledges that I am eligible for the Volt benefits but none of them have been applied to my account nearly a month after I moved over to them. I would be very grateful if someone could sort this out for me and if I'm not posting this in the right place then I would be equally grateful to be told the proper forum for posting this in order to get a resolution.Solved1.6KViews0likes3Comments
