Precenence: Junk

I'm having a real big problem receiving temporary pass codes from Virgin Money. They have a timeout of 5 minutes however they are taking 6-10 minutes to appear in my email. 

When they do eventually arrive, despite having a rule set up to put the messages into my in-box, and having the source email address in my address book, they always go into the spam.

When I look at the source, the code looks like this:

Return-Path: <no-reply@mail.uk.investmentsandpensions.virginmoney.com>

 dmarc=pass header.from=mail.uk.investmentsandpensions.virginmoney.com (p=none sp=none dis=pass)
Precedence: junk

 

The last line "precedence: junk" is clearly spurious and I believe this may play a part in the delays in the messages coming through to me. Can anyone tell me why this is happening and more importantly, how can this be fixed??

  • Hi davey1956,

    We're very sorry, however this forum is for Virgin Media services only.

    We're unable to assist with any Virgin Money concerns.

    You would have to reach out to Virgin Money directly please.

    We're sorry we can't be of more help.

      Thank you. I am not asking for help with the Virgin Money side of things. Rather, I am trying to understand why your email system labels the emails as junk and takes an over-long time to deliver them. By creating a Gmail account and requesting the Virgin Money codes be sent to that address, I have found the problem does indeed lie with the ntlworld account. Codes arrive within 60 seconds to the Gmail account compared to sometimes 10 minutes to the ntlworld account.
