Why is my On Demand not working?

It may be that your Virgin Media On Demand’s not working because we’ve restricted your services.

We’ll always try contacting you before restricting your services.

There are two reasons your services would be restricted:

• If you’ve just joined us, we may apply a bar to some services, based on the results of your credit check. This can be reviewed after you’ve been with us for 6 months and have made all your payments on time.
• If you’re using services more than normal, we may restrict or bar them temporarily to ensure you’re aware of what you’re spending.

Go to our terms and conditions page for details on both policies.

To make a payment, you can go to our make a payment page.

When the rights of an On Demand show expire, we need to remove it from our service. Some shows do return at a later date with more episodes, or as a complete series.

Check the On Demand menu to see the latest episodes.
