Virgin Media uses an internal area reference code to identify your location on their network. It is a short numeric code (one user reported theirs as 31) that appears on your account documents. This is separate from a standard UK geographic dialling code.
Where can you find your Virgin Media area reference code?
There are three places to look, and you only need one of them.
- Your monthly bill. The area reference code is printed on Virgin Media bills, according to user reports on the r/VirginMedia community on Reddit.
- Your MyVirginMedia online account. Log in at virginmedia.com, and the code appears within your account details.
- Your contract documents or welcome email. As a Virgin Media support moderator confirmed on the Virgin Media Community forum: "This is usually printed on your contract documents as well as your welcome email from us."
What does the area reference code look like?
Based on user reports, it is a short number. One Reddit user in the r/VirginMedia community found theirs was simply 31. Virgin Media does not publish a full public list of these codes or explain which regions each number corresponds to, so the code itself tells you little without Virgin Media's own systems to interpret it.
What if you cannot find it?
Check your original welcome email first, since most customers still have that in their inbox. If not, logging into MyVirginMedia is the quickest route. Your paper bills are a reliable fallback if you keep them.
This is usually printed on your contract documents as well as your welcome email from us.
