Happening to lots of people.
Here is my boilerplate reply for this.
Your account will have been locked or disabled more than likely.
They will send you an email about it, but as you have had the account locked/disabled, you obviously will not receive it?
The other week it was locked for suspicious activity.
The following week it was disabled, and later on in the week it was neither, but required a password change.
You will need to call Virgin and get hold of Email support to get it unlocked or enabled.
I suspect they will be pretty busy due to all these accounts being locked/disabled regularly, so you might wait a while, but you do need to speak to a human being.
There is a sticky about this as the first thread, that does state you can do it from your account, by changing the password?
If you do call Virgin, apparently you have to wait 10 mins to access your mail?, I waited 20 and still not working.? Login and try changing the password yourself.

Edit:
I think there might be three states of email issues here.?
1. Account is locked. Need to call Virgin to get it unlocked. At the same time, it seems the password needs to be changed.
2. Account is disabled. Need to call Virgin to get it enabled. No need for any password change.
3. Account is neither locked or disabled, but requires password change.? The sticky appears to work only for case 3?
Lucky me has gone through all three states in the last two weeks. 🙂
