Missed my football match because every time I go to BT Sport, the bloody thing says device not registered, register new device! now I'm blocked from watching even on those registered devices. I thought a device was a particular laptop, phone or tablet, but now as soon as you close your browser, you're blocked out. Help please!

The constant clearing of browser cookies may be exactly what is causing your issue.

Are you supposed to log out and not clear the cookies ?

Wiping out all your cookies is "like throwing the baby out with the bathwater".
There are good cookies & bad cookies (the ones that track you). Most browsers now have add-ons you can download that will block these tracking cookies while allowing the others to operate normally & keep all the site functionality you need.

This issue is not about cleaning cookies.
This is about a normal user being able to use the service for which she/he has paid.
If we use a computer, we subscribe to Virgin Media and have the contractual right by that legal agreement to access Virgin TV Go without hinderance, then surely the withholding of that right is a material breach of the agreement.
Of course, Virgin Media has it's own legal disclaimers. But perhaps sometimes, VM might just consider doing the right thing rather than the normal thing.
You need to register my single devices, not browsers. And you need to reset my devices now. I've not got a great deal of patience. If I can't watch the programmes that I wish to watch, then the breach becomes the breach.

VM do deliver the content however due to the way you are using ccleaner to clear cookies negates the instructions which VM advise you to follow.
Info below from https://www.virginmedia.com/help/tv/how-to-use-virgin-tv-go-app
Virgin TV Go is available for all Virgin TV customers, and is available on iOS, Android, Windows 10, PC and Mac.
Supported computers and browsersWe no longer have a Windows 10 app, but Windows 10 devices can use the website, and install the web app that is offered when visiting the website. To use Virgin TV Go in a browser please ensure you’ve got cookies enabled in your browser, that virginmedia.com is listed as a trusted site, your browser is set to allow protected content, and you allow pop ups from the Virgin TV Go website.
Note: If you register a computer using a browser, you’ll need to use the same browser with Virgin TV Go. Using a different browser, clearing cookies or using incognito mode will be seen as a different device.
CCleaner does offer you the option to choose which cookies to keep or delete. You could therefore add the cookies for TVGO to your Cookies to Keep column.
