Re: had install today but?

As your installation is new, I'll assume that it is? This being the case (when you signed up with VM) you should have got a letter from them confirming the contract and all of your details etc?

If you can find that letter, then the information contained within same should have all the information that customer services require. find that and then get in contact with them again.

Good luck and Si thee

also if you were with s%y at least you have something to watch by the time they leave but not with VM only get ch 1 to 5ch then you get a message saying your card is invalid

so day1
no tv
no broadband
phone yes

now that is wot i call service at the mo dont think much of them
but they installed it in record time

any idea how long these upgrades take?

Re: had install today but?

well after a long long phone call she said it sould be on bye 10pm now it is 11:05pm still nothing but the the funny thing is im being charged for this
wot great service? not happy with this at all?
when they install the eqip they should see if the channels are working as do sky when they set it up. why does it take this long to get a card up and runnin
all they after do is send a signal wot is hard about that?
not a happy person oh still waitin for my text of the bloke who installed the stuff to text me my password for the broadband [thanks m8]
so cant even install broadband , no wonder virgin media is getting a bad name
come back ntl

at least ive got a pretty box to look at [pace] yep the old one's
and a modem doing naff all
phone line working at least something is working?

Throw it away as it isn't going to work.


As for the install problems a member of the team may be able to help you with it
