Recovery of deleted email account

Good evening,

I was trying to set up my virginO2 account but inadvertently deleted my wife's email account as she was logged into pc. Is it possible to get my wifes secondary account reinstated? I am the main account holder.

I've been in touch with customer services via whatssapp and they told me to try and log in after 2 hours, which hasen't worked. She's waiting important emails & i'm in the doghouse.

Thanks in advance

    Was it deleted via My Virgin Media | Virgin Media or from within an email client; if the latter then re-setting it up again should resolve the issue?

        Hi there leebert 👋 Welcome back to our forum and thanks for your post 😊

        We can certainly take a look to see if this email address can be recovered. I'll send you a PM to confirm your details so this can be done.

        Regards

  • Hi Lee

    just wondered what help you got with your query.  We just have the same situation, but we put in passwords and nothing happens.  My husband’s account works, but mine doesn’t at the moment.   Is there a number to ring or something?  Need some help if possible please.🙇‍♀️

      Hi Mausie, 

      Sorry to hear the same thing's happened to your email account. I'll do my best to help

      I've sent you a private message.

      Thanks,

  • So what happened Lee?  I know it was a year ago, but I’m the wife in the same position today!  Virgin said my email would be reinstated in 3/4 days last Thursday (28th Nov) and nothing so far.  How long did you wait?  Did anyone help you? If so, who?
