Delete old virgin media email

[Jg16]

Hi there, I left virgin media about 3 years ago when I moved to a non virgin area but my old email address is active and I’d like to delete it, is someone able to help?  Thx !

Hi Jg16 👋 Welcome to the community forum! Thank you for posting. 

Sorry to hear you are needing some support with getting a historic email deleted. They should usually be deleted automatically after 90 days of the account closing. This is outlined in our email policy and FAQ's page here 👉 https://www.virginmedia.com/help/broadband/manage-email-account in the 'How to close or delete an email account' section towards the bottom of the page. 

We can help arrange this for you, we just need to confirm a few details via PM to do so. - You can find the PM in the top right corner of the page in your Inbox. 📩 We can then return to this public thread with another update when possible. Thank you for your patience in the meantime!

Wishing you all the best. 🌞

Hi All 👋 Just returning to update the public thread. 

Thanks to Jg16 for PMing with me and confirming the details needed to raise a request for their email address to be deleted. 

We are just awaiting confirmation this has been completed, which can take up to 9 days (but is usually much faster.). 

Let us know if there's anything else you need! Thanks again for your patience whilst we get this finalised and confirmed. Wishing you all the best. 🌞
