Home number not working

I changed from Sky to virgin back in April, however I have just noticed my home phone number hasn't changed to the number virgin gave me, its still my old number I had with sky. How do I get this rectified? Thanks

    Hi Smudge017 👋 Thank you for your post and welcome to the Virgin Media Community 😀

    Just to clarify, did you request that your landline number with Sky was ported across to us? 

    Also, are you wanting to have a random number assigned to your account or a specific number?

    Please pop back to us at your earliest convenience.

    Regards,
    Daniel

      No I didn't ask for my number to be ported. Virgin contacted me via email with my new number. However this doesn't work but my old sky number does! Am I eligible for compensation in a phone service I have not yet being able to use yet I'm billed for?!
