Frequently Asked Questions.

  • How can I access My data manager?

    Members can access My data manager by logging into My Account on the web or through the Virgin Plus My Account app.

  • Who can use My data manager?

    If you’re the account holder of a Virgin Plus mobile account you can use My data manager to set up, remove or change blocks for lines on your account that include data usage.
    Use the tool to block data for smartphones, tablets, or other connected devices. It can’t be used for Prepaid, Talk and Text, and Pay-per-use.

  • What can I do with My data manager?

    My data manager lets you do the following for each Member or device on your account:

    • Block data for a period of time:
      Choose to block data until you decide to turn it back on, the end of your billing cycle, the end of day, for the next 30 minutes, etc.
    • Block data on a recurring schedule:
      Have data turn on or off at the same time every day (e.g. bedtime, after work) or just on particular days (e.g. school nights, weekends).

    Remember, when a block is set, only mobile data is blocked, so Members can still use Wi-Fi for voice, text or to access the Internet.

  • When are notifications sent to Members and account holders?

    Members are notified in real time by text when a block is set, changed or removed from their line. Members can also see the settings for the block on the My Usage page in My Account, but can’t change or remove it.
    Account holders are notified if a block request fails to apply or if there are any changes to My data manager functionality affecting active blocks on the account.

Troubleshooting

If you can’t set up or remove a block:

  1. To ensure Members on your account have not incurred $50 or $500 in overage charges and had their data blocked, check for a data block warning on the Mobility Welcome, My Usage, or My data manager pages. Affected Members would have also received a text alert.
  2. Toggle airplane mode on/off on your device or turn the device off and back on again.
  3. If that doesn’t resolve the issue, turn the “block data” toggle in the tool on/off again.
  4. If the issue continues, please try again later or contact us.
