VIRGIN MEDIA
Virgin Media will be carrying out work in Bishopstoke over the next few months. They will be dividing Bishopstoke into sections to have new cabling and cabinets installed and will be providing information to the Parish Council about when each section will begin as the project continues. The Parish Council will then publish this information on our website and Facebook.
When work is due to begin in your street you should receive a leaflet explaining what is happening about 1 week before the work begins. It is expected that each section will take around 1 month to complete.
At any point during this process Virgin can be contacted with questions or with complaints by emailing expansionworks@virginmedia.co.uk or by ringing 0333 000 5925.
Additionally there is a Virgin Liaison Officer, Edward Wicks, who can be contacted directly at Edward.Wicks@virginmedia.co.uk.
Edward has committed to making this process as painless and easy as possible for residents of Bishopstoke and has said that anyone with any issues should feel free to contact him so that he can deal with them as quickly as possible.
