Moved house, given new account number but can’t use existing virgin media account details

Hi, we moved house at the end of November 2019. I called Virgin to help move the connection to new place. The person on the phone signed me up to a new tariff for the bundle I had. In the process a new account was created for me which I wasn’t aware of. My virgin media app is accessed through my primary email but it’s still linked to the old account which is now inactive. There appears to be no way to de-linking the old account number and linking the new account number to my virgin media app. I don’t really want to set up a new account with different email as I don’t access it and will likely miss important emails. The strange thing is that Virgin do have my current email on the new account as I get emails from them but cannot get online to view my account. Will be grateful if old account can be de-linked and new account linked to my login. 
Thanks,

AJSolomon

Hi, can you please also help? Same problem.

Hi there @Freezy, welcome to our forum and thanks for your post.

I'm sorry to see that you are having issues with logging into your online account with your existing details. As these will be linked to your old account number you won't be able to log in using them unless the account is transferred over.

I will be more than happy to do this for you, so I can do this, I will send you a PM to confirm your details.

Regards

Nathan

Hi, I am having the same issue, I have tried calling but the lady on the phone was unable to help me? When I log in to my account using my email address, it is still linked to my old account number. Can someone help please?

Hello Ian, thank you for reaching out on our help forum and this thread.

We're sorry to hear you've had issues accessing your online account recently due to this transfer, would you please be able to tell us if your services in the new property are now active and how long has it been up and running for, if so?
Also, has the former account been disconnected and services turned off?

We'd be happy to help you by having a look into the account to see where we are with the account move process currently.
Please, let us know more here and we'll get back to you asap.
