Problems can occur when the exchanges don't match up, as Virgin have different areas to BT, or if the number is being moved at the same time, the original postcode hasn't been provided as part of the port request.
Apart from that, I don't know anything else that would cause a problem.
Was the number issued to you by Virgin or was it a previously ported number?
I've never actually seen a residential to business number port between Virgin and BT, so that might also be a factor

I believe that the number was originally a BT number, ported to one of the Virgin predecessors and now to be ported back to BT.
There was no indication of a fundamental problem, like exchange distance/compatibility, it was just a situation where BT claimed Virgin wouldn't proceed and Virgin saying that BT wouldn't play ball... with me piggy in the middle!
