If you cancel your services we’ll give you access to your Virgin Media Mail account for 90 days before we close it. This should provide enough time for you to save any contacts, emails and files you wish to keep.
Ensure you have backed up all important emails and transferred all your contacts and linked accounts to an alternative email service before the account is closed.
