No account access or email access for over a month - VM - 02 mess

I have totally given up with Virgin Media and I have now had to complain in writing to the Sunderland address as Virgin Media have broken their contract with me.  I have also asked for a  paper copy of my contract to be sent by mail but still waiting.

I was unable to to complete the stupid, annoying Virgin Media - 02 email confirmation purely and simply because I only use a landline  hard of hearing phone due to deafness, VM   confirmation texts can only be sent to mobile phones, a seriously unacceptable state of affairs when one is cast out due to a disabilty.

I am now at the point where Ofcom is the only way to go forward.

I am past caring about the email address and have registered elsewhere but I do need access to my account in order to check my contract details as the current payment will increase if I cannot cancel by giving 30 days notice.

I have been without access since July 14th - It is incredible that people can receive  text by landline phones with other companies  but not so with Virgin Media. One only has to read various on-line message boards in order to see just how many other customers are having problems since the VM-02 disaster.

I tried using the message boards earlier but gave up as I was sick and tired of having to identify myself, using 5 minute slots for help, adding digits from my password etc., it was never ending.

I have just been left with this mess but still have to pay Virgin Media every month.  I am now looking for another provider who will give me the service that I am entitled to but not receiving. I will not be renewing my contract.

    Three weeks before the VM-02 nonsense kicked in I was also  left with a faulty HUB3 which affected my access to the internet, I finally managed to get it replaced.

    I even took my computer to a local repair place to make sure that it wasn't the computer that was causing the problem, the computer was fine.

    The only good thing about Virgin Media is the broadband speed.
