As Peter said, you can report these yourself on 0330 333 0444.

Or use the 'general enquiry' route from here.

Yeah I think it's a good thing to post the pictures on here so people can see them, might make VM think more then look after there property etc.

Not pretend everything is hunky dory.

Lol yeah thanks a lot my man. My Avenue is easier to pronounce Edward VII Avenue but some people struggle with the roman numerals.

On the VM green box I posted yesterday the pavement it's on is all dug up from the box to the top of the road about 30 feet. So not sure what's going on there. It's cornered off with workmens fencing, that's why all the rubbish and leaves are around the green box. I contacted my local councillor a Tory to ask why thats been like that for over a year now, there finding out for me apprently.

As this is not a Virgin Media run forum that is unlikely to happen.

Re: Virgin media ignoring reports of open green box, any ideas?

Well ours is still hanging off, im up to 25 reports now, including the help from people on here

Still no repair and looks like some one has kicked the front now so its even worse.

Why wait until its beyond repair? I would fix it myself but they will probably call me and bill me for messing with one of their boxes.
