Can't link accounts

Hi, hoping someone can help. The ultimate problem is I can't access my online VM/O2 accounts, but the core issue is due to an email account.

I can no longer access my VM or O2 accounts online.... keeps telling me to link this and link that, then I get to a point where it is trying to send a verification email to an old @ntlworld.com email address that I have NEVER used! I've spoken to VM a few times, and each time they keep fobbing me off with 'it will be resolved in a couple of days'. I've now raised the issue with O2, and they told me it will be resolved in 3-5 days, but I'm not confident.

Anyway, does anyone know HOW an old @ntlworld.com email address can be accessed through OUTLOOK, or any other app/website or other, without knowing the password? I have a PW that I used to login to my VM account with, but that doesn't work trying to set up in Outlook.

Cheers

Paul

  • Join the queue. I’ve had this problem since 8th July. Still stuck in stasis. Its been escaled six times no less but nothing has changed. Latest assurance is they now have ‘dedicated’ looking at this, that was four days ago. Still no joy, good luck and on top of your frustrations, its going to be a long haul
