Can't connect to London underground WiFi after changing device

Problem:

You just changed your phone/tablet/device. Now you can't connect to the free Virgin Media wifi at London underground stations.

Solution:

  • Call your phone company's tech support (For EE it's 150, the 1, 3, 4)
  • Tell the level 1 support person that you've already tried all the troubleshooting steps including a network refresh
  • Ask to be put through to level 2
  • Ask the level 2 tech to un-register you from London underground wifi, wait 24 hours and re-register.
  • After that, follow the process for a new WiFi password (for EE it's texting EEWIFI to 9527).
