Unable to log in to My Virgin Media

Very frustrated here, I am unable to login to My Virgin Media account page.

I click the "Forgot password" button where I have to input my Date of Birth and Mother's Maiden Name, which I do.

I then click the purple "Continue" button and get the swirly Virgin logo animation and then NOTHING happens.  I then click "Having trouble? Please contact us and one of the team will help reset your password." which is NONSENSE because there is NO-ONE there and all the options are complete nonsense and irrelevant when your site doesn't even work.

PLEASE can someone help me get into my account so I can reset my password and manage my account?

Thank you.

I will say I have tried Chrome and Edge web browsers and have disabled Ad-blocker as well thinking that might help but it still doesn't work.

Re: Unable to log in to My Virgin Media

Hello Hayley, thank you for replying.

It has always been the same account, although I did once change the email address associated with it.

I think somehow the Virgin system might confused as I changed my login email address to @virginmedia.com (from the @gmail.com) address I was using for years.  So;

1) @virginmedia.com  - set up  and used with Virgin technician when I set up my broadband etc on the day

2) I changed it to @gmail.com  from within the account page and used this for years until one day within the last 6 months or so...

3) ...I decided to change it back to @virginmedia.com and I think maybe its something to do with this changing back to the original account email name that has somehow messed it up.

I can provide my Account number and Area reference and anything else if it makes it easier to get this seemingly unique issue fixed?
