Re: Cant create password for Virgin Media account

Was this ever resolved? I’m having the exact same issue. I’m trying to create a My Virgin account and every time I get to the password creation section, it tells me that I “can’t use that password” eventhough it meets all the requirements. It even tells me that it meets all the requirements. I’ve tried so many times and it’s really frustrating. Please help!

Re: Cant create password for Virgin Media account

Hello - I have tried all the above steps too, yet have been through about 50 password options. Is this a known glitch at this time? Many thanks for any help you can give us. K

Re: Cant create password for Virgin Media account

Hey @cstephens,

Welcome to the community and thanks for taking the time to post your issue on the forums.

Have you tried to create a password using the below criteria

 

  • 8-10 characters 
  • Starts with a letter 
  • Includes at least one number 
  • No special characters

If so, can you try a new browser for me? This has worked for me in the past to solve this. The last thing to try if the new browser doesn't work, try clearing all cache/cookies, auto fill passwords and browsing history.

Regards,

Steven_L
