I’m trying to log in online to change my password. I can access my email fine on my phone but my saved password isn’t recognised when I try to log in online…so i click forgotten password and then it asks for email address then says email address not recognised.
I don’t have a Virgin account anymore but i even used the old account details that it requests when I click forgotten email address.
I only have one other email address and I’ve tried to use that too.
Im afraid that if anything happens to my phone access I’m totally locked out of my account
I see many others have the same issue but can’t see any solutions
Sorry to say but you need an active broadband subscription to continue using VM email addresses (virgin.net, virginmedia.com, blueyonder.co.uk, ntlworld.com)
The info below is from the 'What else to do if I'm leaving' section on the https://www.virginmedia.com/help/leaving page. "Any emails you want to keep from your Virgin Media email address, as this will close 90 days after your disconnection date. Just make sure you forward anything important to a new email address."
Also section D.6 of the VM/Terms_and_Conditions
Any email address allocated by us to you will at all times belong to us and you may not transfer the address to any person. If this agreement ends, yourright to use that email address will also end and you will no longer be
able to use the email address, so please make sure you have an alternative email address and let your contacts know of the change, as we cannot do this for you. Please see our acceptable use policy for more detail on email
address usage and our Help and Support page (by clicking here) on what happens to your email when you leave us.
