I left VM 2 years ago and now my ntlworld email has been hacked. How do I close the account down?
I left VM 2 years ago after having had my broadband supplied by them for 15-20 years (originally NTLWorld). When I left I set up new email accounts as I’d been informed the NTL world email would be deleted after 90 days. unfortunately some of the services I’d used but unsubscribed to have been sending me messages with new access codes (some messages in Spanish), I’ve received some phishing emails with my NTLworld password being quoted and I’ve also been receiving a load of email failed to send messages - so my email has clearly been hacked. How do I go about getting my email deleted so I can put an end to the hackers pretending to be me?20Views0likes2CommentsUnable to log in to my VM account
Hi, I am not receiving the verification email to log in to my account. This also happens when I am being asked to link my virginO2 to my Virginmedia account and when I try to log into Sky Sports. My original problem was that my login email address was an old one that I no longer had access to. I have had several live chats and a long phone call, where my problem was escalated to IT. I have not heard anything now for 2 weeks. i have now managed to get access to that old email address, it sends and receives perfectly well, but nothing from Virgin to verify and access my account. Can anybody help with this? Thanks, Richard32Views1like2CommentsNtlworld email
Hi, I have just realised I still have an Ntlworld email that seems to still be receiving messages. There’s a lot of junk in there and it’s been years since I used it so for security, I just want it fully closed down. I don’t recall the log in details but can still access from my phone. Does anyone know how to just fully shut it down? I haven’t been a virgin media customer for year so I’m surprised the account still exists! thanks41Views0likes2CommentsDon't have any of our account details and Customer service is no help
I'm in a situation where we don't know what any of our account details are and have no documentation that has them. No account number, No name on the account, no letters through the door, no emails. I've been trying to call customer support for any kind of support as I want to keep being a virgin media customer but they're absolutely no help and just brick walling me at every opportunity over the phone.14Views0likes1CommentHow do I access/manage email aliases?
It would be nice if VirginMedia/O2 issued clear instructions regarding VM/O2 Identity creation for management of email aliases. At the moment, I have successfully created a VM/O2 ID for my primary account, I can log in OK and access/manage the primary email account. I also have several aliases, which at the moment are all able to receive and send emails via my PC and mobile clients. However there seems to be no way to be able to manage these additional aliases via the primary account, which used to be the case before VM/O2 decided to wind up the email service. My email aliases have multiple uses all over the web, (logins, registrations etc) and losing them and having to substitute "third party addresses" would be a nightmare! I have read alsewhere that a separate VM/O2 ID needs to be created for each alias. So, my questions are 1 ) If it aint broke, should I fix it? (In other words, since everything is working OK just now, do I need to create VM/O2 IDs for each alias?). More importantly, will the alias email addresses remain the same if I do?) 2) If YES, how do I do this safely without screwing up my primary login and/or all the aliases!! Clear instructions please! 3) If NO, (which seems to be the case since everything works (for now), how long have I got before I am forced to create these ID thingys (which seem totally unnecessary to me) Kind Regards Dave NashSolved88Views0likes5CommentsWhich flipping (polite version) username / password / PIN?
Every time I have an issue with VM and need to login I seem to be entering an incorrect password. No idea why, I have a password manager which usually tells me what I need to enter (one now filled with multiple entries some with copious notes). Quite often I go to sign in to Email and the bookmarked URL doesn't work (usually get an error message, again, I don't know why VM make this difficult everyone else seems to handle it). So, how many passwords/accounts are there? Could someone from VM just list where I need a particular password or username and for any online services where the actual login page is. For example, and not limited to: Broadband / TV - account Email (blueyonder) (incidentally the username for this now seems to be my Gmail email address, oh wow) Email (blueyonder POP3 settings for Gmail) Virgin Media TV 360 box (need for resetting yet another PIN) Customer Services - telephone username / PIN? VM Community anything I've missed? Why can't VM just have a single account name for everything and simplify it for all their customers who have a billion other passwords to remember and VM is not the centre of their lives?Solved108Views0likes5CommentsCan't login to VM account to access email
I'm am trying to login to my VM email inbox after reinstalling everything on my pc, i enter my login email address in to the VM02 sign page, it then asks for a passkey which i didn't set on my phone, i click on "verify another way" it sends an verification email to my gmail account but it never arrives. Is there a problem with VM sending the verification email?Solved76Views0likes4CommentsForbidden 403 - usual response doesn't work
I have been Forbidden access to my webmail (@ntlworld.com) for about a week. In the past, resetting the password has always remedied the problem - but not this time. I have done this five times - from different kit (desktop, laptop) and browsers (Firefox, Chrome) but to no effect. What else can I try?Solved72Views0likes2CommentsUnable to access my virgin media email account AGAIN.
Unable to access my virgin media email account AGAIN. Being told my email address is unverified despite going through this exact process a few months ago. I actually got an "email address verified" message this morning when trying to sort it out but when I tried to log in it still says I'm unverified. I've got ONE login attempt left before my account is locked. PLEASE sort this out, it's not acceptable!Solved109Views0likes2Comments
