O2 notification emails not received (ntlworld account)

Question

I have recently realised that I hadn't received any billing notification emails from O2 since March.

I contacted them and it appears to be OK at their end and so this became a problem when I went to change my contract as I didn't receive the account change documents either.

I have an ntlworld account and we all know this has been problematic. So I asked them to send to my gmail account instead and it worked.

I do not have O2 blocked in any way to my ntlworld account - Has anyone else had a similar problem?

Hey DancinDiva, thank you for reaching out and we are sorry to hear you haven't been getting your O2 bills.
Has this only been happening with O2 bills, any others one?
Has this now been updated for you?

Sorry about the delay - the notification of your response went into the spam folder.

The ntlworld email address was checked as correct by me and VM advisor. So it should have worked. Instead I have had to change the notification address to a gmail one and that is working fine.

As for whether any other emails other than O2 bills, I don't know as I can't tell if I don't actually receive them. You have got me worried now.

Thanks but it is rather annoying that VM went over to O2 and it's O2 emails that I was not getting, forcing me to change to another email address for my account.&nbsp;I wonder if VM trying to force us to stop using ntlworld so they don't have to keep supporting it
