What the heck has happened to my Ntlworld Virgin media mailbox access?
For 3 days now I have been getting the 'mailbox unavailable try in an hour or contact support' message. I have done all this and reported it twice in 24 hour apart. Apparently a trouble ticket has been raised but no resolution yet and no explanation. This service is beginning to suck.
I may be forced to go elsewhere.

It may sound like a tired cliche but:
Changing the password solves this in most cases.
Sign in to My Virgin Media, go to My Profile and/or Manage Accounts depending on whether the account concerned is your primary account or an additional one. Select the account concerned and then click on Change to the right of password if a primary account or View/Change then change to the right of password for secondary accounts.
If that hasn't unlocked your account after waiting 15 minutes post back and the VM Forum Team should be able to help you further.

Password resets etc. Did not fix this problem.
It was cured after about 4 days and is still ok. I presume Virgin IT support responded to the trouble ticket and fixed it but I have had no info or update.
