I can't find out what my memorable word is

On a recent phone enquiry with Virgin I was asked for my memorable word. I have a 8 digit telephone password that I usually use but apparently that is different - I was told the memorable word has more than 8 digits.

I looked at the security settings on my account on the Virgin website but it wouldn't tell me the memorable word. It emailed me a link to verify my identity - which I did - but it made no difference - I still was not able to access any of my security settings. 

How can I  find out what my memorable word is? (if i have one). This has never happened before - i've always used my telephone password before but apparently that's not acceptable any more.

    Webchat Customer Services/Complaints on here, that's how I sorted mine out - you might be asked secondary security questions, if you get your primary ones incorrect!

      I clearly said in my post that my normal telephone password (8 digits) wasn't accepted - they said the memorable word has more than 8 digits.

      I also explained clearly in my post that when I attempted to access my security info (in the way you describe) email verification was required, which still didn't give me access to the security info.
