Unable to Log Into MyVirginMedia or VMConnect

Hi,

Can anyone assist, I have been unable to access the above APPS for over 8 weeks on any platform.

I've contacted support and have a IT ticket opened but every time I make contact they tell me it will be 'sorted' in a couple of days and nothing happens. 

Any advice would be appriciated.

TIA

  • Hello Maccy609,

    We're sorry to hear of the app access issues experienced, we appreciate you taking the time to raise this with us via the forums.

    All apps require a VMO2 ID to access, more help on this can be found here. You mentioned a ticket being raised, was this due to the access issues or issues setting up your VMO2 ID? Tickets can take up to 5 working days to resolve but it can take longer depending on the issue and it's complexity.

      This has been going on for over 8 weeks now, far more than the 5 days you mention, I can’t imagine it’s that complex.

      It’s access issues, I’m unable to access/sign into MyVirginMedia to view my account or VMConnect on any platform.

      Hello philski69​ 

      We're sorry to hear this is still ongoing.

      As it's been quite a while since we last checked your account, we'll need to complete security again over a private message.

      If you can check your logo at the top right of your screen, that would be great.

  • I had the same problem going on since August with no joy. Tonight I set myself up with a google email account and tried that, it worked first time and connected both my virgin media and O2 accounts together so I can access them with the 1 log in, Hope it works for you

      Hi philski69,

      Thank you for your post. We're sorry to hear you also had this issue with logging into the online account. 

      We're glad to hear it has now been resolved with the new email address.

  • had same problem, fixed it myself by getting a google email and signed in with that. it all worked even transferred account across from my original email address

     

  • No joy at all, just get the run around every time I make contact. I can't even access my account to try and complain or get any further assistance. Was told 5 day turn around to fix, that was 14 days ago, still nothing and no updates at all.

    Cheers Philski69, I'll give it your suggestion a try.

      Tried a new email address which was fine but won't let me link the account just says...

      We found your Virgin Media account, but unfortunately we can’t link it to your Virgin Media O2 ID right now.

      The irony is I left Sky for Virgin due to the poor service and cost......what a mistake that was. (apart from the engineer who attended at install who was fantastic).

        Try logging in on your O2 account on your phone and see what happens

         

  • I’m having the same issue. I cannot log in to my account using any platform or device. Just keeps taking me back to either the sign in page or a blank screen. Any suggestions?

      I was able to log into 'My Virgin Media' a few minutes ago - but I couldn't follow the instruction to change a password that are pinned here on this Forum as the 'Virgin Media Email Settings' option seems to open the 'ID Settings' page, which is as much use as a chocolate teapot if you need email settings...
