I have had Virgin Media internet for around a month now, and have tried to sign up for a Virgin Media account with the information that was emailed to me (Account Number and Area Code) however whenever I do I get the error message "We can't find an account with the details you've provided. Please contact us to register."

I am sure all the details are correct as they are the same that Virgin Media emailed to me and have phoned Virgin Media support however I was passed from one person to the next every 10-15 minutes for over an hour and no progress was made.

I hope this can be resolved quickly,

Thanks a lot, Seth

Hi Seth,

Is the account number 8 or 9 digits in length?

The majority of accounts are 9 digits in length, if yours is only 8 didgits then add a preceding zero.

For example if it was 12345678 then you would enter it as 012345678

Hi Gareth _L,

I have exactly the same problem, 9 digit account number and the email address that Virgin Media has been emailing me on isn't recognised. If you could help me I would be most grateful.
