I moved home in November but didn’t transfer my account at the time. Eventually I signed up again, with a new contract. Now I can’t NOT log into my old Virgin account and can’t log into my new one, not even using the email link provided by Virgin to access my new account. By default, it just takes me to my old account. MyVirginMedia app does the same.
how do I kill the old account and/or access my new account?

Hi MartinFisher, thanks for getting in touch.
Sorry to hear you've had some issues accessing your online account. It may be possible for us to 'move' the old account over to your new one - please get back to me via PM and we'll be able to take a closer look into this for you.

I can't sign in to my account
I can only be automatically directed to my old account, which is now defunct.
I posted about it this morning requesting a) to transfer the credit balance to my new account; and b) to delete the old account completely (because I've spent hours and hours on this already and I'm sick of it).
I was invited to create a new password for a new email address that the previous helper (Tom) created for me to solve the issue last time - now I can't access that either. The password isn't recognised.
Now, because I can't sign into my new account I can't change anything on Hub3, which was my aim this afternoon (to change the security setting from WPA).

Hi Martin,
You don't need your account details to sign into the hub3.
Open a browser and log into your hub 192.168.0.1 (192.168.100.1 if using a 3rd party router)
Sign in using your WiFi network name (VMxxxxxxxx) unless you changed it and your Settings password (unless you changed it) the details are on the base of the hub3

It is asking specifically for a password and it won't accept the Hub's password.

Hi again @MartinFisher
Looking at the number of characters in the screenshot for the password, it looks like you've entered the WiFi password and not the Settings password.
The Settings password is on the base of the hub and consists of 8 numeric characters.

Hi MartinFisher,
Thank you for your post. I'm sorry to hear about the issue you're having with signing into your hub.
Have you been able to try the Settings password advised by newapollo?

Yes, thank you - I have managed to access the Router using the Settings Password
