Exciting Updates Coming to Your Community Support Hub

We have some wonderful news regarding the future of online support for customers of Virgin Media and O2. As part of a fantastic initiative to bring communities closer together, these two leading providers are working on a major upgrade to their customer community forums. This exciting project aims to merge their separate platforms into one unified, modern space where everyone can connect, share advice, and find solutions more easily than ever before.

Over the last month, the providers have been carefully preparing for this significant transition by temporarily pausing new postings. This short pause is a necessary step to ensure that the massive database of helpful tips, historic discussions, and member accounts can be moved safely to a brand-new system. While the exact completion date is being finalised to guarantee a smooth experience, this careful planning demonstrates a real commitment to quality and reliability for all users.

Community forums have always been a cherished resource, allowing customers to help one another and find answers even when direct support lines are busy. The upcoming merger will combine the best of both worlds, creating a larger, more vibrant community where knowledge is shared freely. Although the technical process of merging such extensive archives is a complex and detailed task, the result will be a seamless, upgraded platform that serves everyone better.

We understand that waiting for a new system can feel like a long time, but please know that this temporary pause is all about building a stronger foundation for the future. Once the upgrade is complete, you will enjoy a faster, more intuitive forum experience with all your favourite community features intact and ready to go. This is a positive step forward in digital customer care, ensuring that support remains a priority for every member.

If you have any questions about your broadband or mobile services while you wait for the new forum to launch, our friendly team is here to help. We can signpost you to the right department or provide alternative support options to ensure you never feel alone. Simply call us today on 0800 123 4567. The call costs 7p per minute plus your phone company's access charge, and we look forward to speaking with you!
