Hello mark128

 

We're sorry to hear of access issues relating to your email account, we appreciate the concern this can cause and you raising this via the forums. Welcome to the community.

 

Do you have access to your online account still? If so, follow these steps to help resolve the issue:

 

  • Sign in to My Virgin Media
  • Go to Account settings, then Account details
  • Tap Manage next to Manage your Virgin Media Mail app password under Virgin Media Mail
  • Then, under Virgin Media Mail app password tap Get password
  • Continue the flow and a new secure password will be generated, and the mailbox unlocked
  • Update any third-party apps that may be use to access your Virgin Media Mail emails with this new app password.

If you have already tried these, can you confirm if you get any error messages at all either resetting or trying to access the email account?

Hi 

thanks for the reply.

i can still log into my account online. i have reset the app passwords many, many times , changed my main password and followed all the instructions. 

i still cannot access email from either the web or app. it just says locked, and then to follow the instructions which i have and it stays the same

 

the error message i recieve form the app is failure to connect due to pop3 or imap i think. i have followed the virgin instructons for both of those and its still the same.

cheers
