Logging in shows old account instead of new account

[Noone]

Hello,

A few months ago I had cancelled my account due to relocating and after relocating, I signed back up to virgin media. Everything is installed and working fine.

However when I log into my account, I'm taken to my old deactivated account and not my new currently running account. Is there anyway to have this rectified?

Kind regards.

Hi Noone,

Thank you for your post and welcome to the community. 

I'm very sorry to hear about your online account. 

It sounds as though you may have used the same email address for the old account as the new account. 

Can you confirm if you have been on our website and registered the new account?

Hey Martin,

Thanks for getting back in touch.

I did use the same e-mail address as the old account as the new account as that’s the e-mail address that I use. When I signed up for the services again, I logged into my account through my e-mail address and did so using it.

When I log into with my e-mail address there’s no option to register a new account or view other accounts?

Unless you mean sign up completely again? If that’s the case, I did try but it says ‘Account already set up’ and when I sign in, it takes me back to my old account. There was an option that says ‘Trying to register for a different account’. I did that also, provided my surname, new account number and area reference then click ‘Continue’ and it takes me back to the whole ‘Account already set up’ and once I sign in, it’s my old account again.

Kind regards.
