Unable to register for My Virgin Media Account

Hi there,

 

This is so insane that 8 months after my services started, I still cant access my account online.

 

I have tried resetting my password and it doesnt allow me to create any password. I've tried about 30 different combinations, all giving the same "You can't use that password. Please choose another" message.

 

I cant sign in with my email because the reset PW link that gets sent to my email is "expired" as soon as I click on it.

 

 

I need access to my account ASAP to be able to manage it. How can I do this?

Re: Unable to register for My Virgin Media Account

Hi Amna12 👋

Thanks for using the forums to get this issue with your online account looked into, I am sorry if this has been causing some frustration over the past 8 months. I would be more than happy to look into this for you. 

Some things that we need you to do first are -

  • Try a different browser. 
  • Try a different device. 
  • Update your browser if it's not already on the latest update. 
  • Delete your cookies/cache. 

If you still cannot sign up for an online account after doing these steps, please let us know and we will help further!

Thanks,

Megan_L

Re: Unable to register for My Virgin Media Account

Hi francosiu, thanks for the message and welcome to the forums. 

I am sorry to hear that you are having issues registering with the online account. 

I understand that you have had a My Virgin Media account and when you sign in it is saying locked?

When resetting the password does this happen on alternative browsers? 

What error message are you currently getting? 

Kind regards, Chris.
