Hi Carley

Sorry for setting up two threads! I can't see any questions in the other thread - just seems to be a welcome message. Am I missing something?
Thanks very much.

Thank you Graham.

No, I'm not an active customer - I had to leave Virgin in 2021 when I moved to a village with no Virgin coverage. I had been a customer for 20 years.

I am using Mail.

Thanks again,

Richard.

Thanks for getting back to us Richard,

You would need to have an active broadband account with us in order to use the email service. 

You'd usually get 90 days after cancelling the service to save any important email etc. But you would no longer be able to use the Virgin email.
