I cannot get Virgin Essential despite many hours.

Despite numerous attempts I cannot get Virgin Essential. Finally after many hours and attempts I was told I would receive confirmation via SMS despite never giving my phone number?

    Hi Kieron3 

    Are you a new or current VM customer?  If a current customer them VM may have taken your contact details via 

    your https://www.virginmedia.com/myvmo2 account. 

    If you do have a My Virgin Media account it's worth checking to see that in contains your correct contact details.

    Have you tried contacting them via the online messenger chat on the right hand side of the following page
