Virgin.net - Process for account Deletion / Hacked

Hello,

I left Virgin Media in 2015, and also ceased to use a Virgin.net email account At the time I recall a message from Virgin that the e-mail accounts were not going to be usable after a certain date.

I set up a forwarding rule from my old Virgin.net email address to my new e-mail account.

In March 2023 I have started to receive hotel booking confirmation e-mails (from a well know travel website) forwarded from my long time disused / but still open Virgin.net account, that I have not made.

I can no longer access the Virgin.net email account.

Please could you advise on the process by which Virgin Media can suspend / delete my old Virgin.net e-mail account.

Hi @J1970 

Thanks for posting and welcome to the community.

I will send you a PM now to raise this to IT for the email to be deleted.

Many thanks John.

I understand that there is a website that I can go to check that this orphan email address has been deleted, but will IT provide any confirmation?
