WiFi Pods Not Connecting
I’ve been trying for a long time now. Got a brand new hub 5, everything is working fine apart from my video doorbell which stops working as soon as you put it outside…ergo pointless. They sent me a pod. I’ve plugged it in all over the house, eventually trying in the same room as the hub, just over 3 metres away with nothing in between. Still the pod just flashes when I plug it in and never connects. Tried on my desktop (Mac) and via the VM App. I’ve reset everything twice and deleted and downloaded everything again…same result every time. Online chat got nowhere either and I don’t work hours conducive to calling in. Anyone help?23Views0likes1CommentWiFi Pod and Hub 5 connection issue
I'm trying to get my existing WiFi Pod to connect to my new Hub 5. I spent all day yesterday trying to speak to someone via phone and via messenger service and just kept going round in circles. I've read on other posts on here that I need to get VM to re-pair the pod to my new hub. Any ideas how I can get to speak to someone to do this?! Any help appreciated!15Views0likes1CommentImpossible to speak to anyone at Virgin Media
Three days ago it took me over two hours to get an actual agent on WhatsApp. Last night it took me another two hours in relation to a wifi pod. After all of that they said they could not help order a second wifi pod just then as I needed to wait until today so the first was processed on the system. Today it took THREE HOURS to finally get an Agent on WhatsApp. But in the meantime earlier this morning the VM Connect App now fails to see my hub. So I made the mistake of telling the agent about that problem first to try and get that bit fixed. Then when he had finished dealing with that issue and said he would pass it on to Tech Support with a 5 day turnaround time, the agent asked me if there was anything else they could help with. The timestamp for this question was 15:15. I started to type a message explaining my real reason for messaging about the second wifi pod requirement, and posted this with a timestamp of 15:16 - only to learn the Agent hadn't even gave me a single solitary minute to answer his question, and instead had closed the conversation! Absolutely disgusting customer service. It now tells me there is at least a 102 minute wait time for an agent. FIVE HOURS to speak to someone at VM? Are you for real. Worse though - I tried ringing up instead therefore - my first experience of contacting VM by phone... And have discovered that it is actually impossible to speak to VM for real by phone. Every single way I try to speak to an agent - whether I choose a Technical Issue, a Billing Issue, or any of the other menu choices, the end result is always a "Thanks for calling VM - we have sent you a text message with useful information" - and then an automatic call termination. What on earth are you playing at Virgin Media. It shouldn't need NINE hours so far of my time on to WhatsApp Chat, just to order the essential second wifi pod. Do you really think that is acceptable customer service?Solved24KViews4likes16CommentsFirst wifi pod has not given my house full coverage (Gig1 package)
I have just moved into a new house which has struggled for connection throughout the house. We had a wifi pod delivered which has partially improved the issue but there are still areas of the house with little to no connection. I did the wifi speed tests on the Connect App but don't have the option to order additional pods. I read we need to have had the first pod for a certain amount of time for this option? Considering there are still areas of the house with zero connection I think this matter is fairly urgent but I can't seem to find any urgent remedies. I was told that this package (Gig1) means I am eligible for more pods so I don't know why their is no option to order them. Very disappointed with the VM experience so far, starting to wish I considered BT.106Views0likes7CommentsWifi Pod Order
Hello, How do I go about checking the status of my WiFi pod order? I recently ordered a second pod on the app around 2 weeks ago and it said that I should be sent one in 3-5 working days. I never received any email or confirmation that this had been sent though and my app says there is no orders? When I have tried to go through the app to order one again now it says I have recently placed an order for one and should have had it delivered by now, which i haven't, and then to contact customer support. Is someone able to check on my account that there is an order for one and if I can expect delivery of this anytime soon?

My WiFi pod has stopped working and will not reconnect to my hub. White light continues to flash. Have removed and tried to reinstall on VM Connect. Have restarted Hub. Have left pod unplugged for few minutes and then restarted in the same room as Hub but still not reconnection. Is there anything else to try or do I need a replacement pod?

Hello, We had a "health check" engineer visit yesterday, and one of the things he did was switch our Hub 5 for a Hub 5x. Everything's good, except our WiFi Pod which does not seem to be connected to the new Hub. It is displayed as Offline in the Virgin Media Connect app, but instructing it to reboot through the app seems to work. Could we get the WiFi pod updated to work with the new Hub please?Solved334Views0likes5Comments
