Question upgrade to virgin now no VOD
Did a set top reboot this morning and successfully downloaded the Virgin media software. All well and good to this point,then tried VOD and a message to say it is temporarily unavailable? rang 151 got fobbed off with a call back in 3 to 5 working days. my STB is the samsung 2110, and I live in the Teesside area. Can anyone enlighten me please

Re: upgrade to virgin now no VOD
I have just had a V+HD installed and was hoping it was because of that (the V+ hasn't activated yet).

The Samsung I've kept for multiroom's VOD works fine.

VOD was unavailable for me last night on both V+ and V-Box (Samsung with V software) - Loughborough.

Re: upgrade to virgin now no VOD
Im sure I said this in another thread, but give the poor company time to settle down, with a merger it's not as simple as connecting the 2 networks and billing systems togther and praying it works, in fact that might never happen, people seem to expect Virgin Media to suddenly excel the sum of NTL and Telewest which isn't going to happen for some time, have some patience

1. Take the box out from the mains.
2. Hold the top 3 channel buttons on the box
3. Plug the mains back in, keeping the buttons pressed in for around 20 seconds and let go...
4. sit back and let it update to the v software

No, there's instructions on how to update a pace box somewhere on this forum. Can't seem to find them now though...
