Online Security
Hi No matter what I do I can't seem to turn on virus protection via My Virgin Media. I keep getting the message 'Sorry the changes you made were not saved, please try again'. Also I have a new privacy warning "This network is blocking encrypted DNS traffic". Once again there is no option to turn this off anywhere. I noticed that there is another (paid) feature Advanced Security. Is it now the case that to access any security features, you have to pay?Blueyonder email account compromised
Today it seems scammers from Nigeria accessed my fathers blueyonder email account. I deduce this from the mail hedder containing: X-Originating-IP: 102.88.111.43 I am wondering if there has been any large scale hack of blueyonder data? or anyone knows of a substantial number of similar issues lately? I am a long way away so trying to give my dad support remotely, and have just completed a full system scan of his computer but cannot detect any virus/mallware/spyware active. I also cannot contact blueyonder on his behalf via email, which is annoying... Any information / support would be appriciated
Need to change password on Blueyonder email
Hi, hope someone can help. I am an ex VM customer. When I left, I was told my email addresses would be deleted in 90 days. 5 years later they havent been, but hackers have now got access to my Blueyonder email address and the password. VM no longer gives me the facility to log on and change the password, but has left the email account active. This means hacker is trying to gain access to other online accounts etc by exploiting their access to my email account. How can I change the password on my Blueyonder email address or even just completely disable/delete the email address?spam call? They have my details what to do.
Hi i requested to disconnect my virgin media after dreadfull customer service and poor quality connection. The next day i received a call from an 0203 9804396 from VM outbound team. They said they 2nd tier and can offer further discounts they asked all my infomation and secuirty info. They told me to disconnect with my new provider. I follwed this up with virgin media today they said we did not call you. Was this a spam? What do i need to do now? Virgin media offered no advise on the call today. Again another reason why im leaving. They are probably worst ever company i have dealt with. Can anyone within the community help? ThanksUnable to send emails to virgin media users - Company IP address blocked?
From late 2023, our company IP address has been blocked by Virgin Media so we can't send any emails to VirginMedia.com, ntlworld.com or blueyonder.co.uk 'Connections from your IP xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx have been disallowed by admin policy.' Our IP address is not on any blacklist, is this something that can be resolved at your end? [MOD EDIT: Subject title changed for clarity]Virgin Technician Stole from our house
We joined virgin media in October and would advise anyone ever thinking of joining them to avoid. We had issues with the box that was sent to us (apparently it was new - it wasn’t and contained other previous customers details). A technician was sent out who although fixed the problem, STOLE £100 cash from our house. This was reported and took nearly 2 months before anyone attempted to sort it. A field manager attended our house and told us he would report back. He then called us and told us that we were being compensation and a cheque was being sent out to compensate for the cash. This all did happen, however; our next bill arrived and we were charged for the £100 cheque; so this money has already been stolen and now the replacement of it has also been added to our bill. I called the field manager who attended and he, alongside another field manager colleague have told us over 5 times; it has been sorted. Our new bill landed today, and lo and behold, there is no £100 refund, so nothing has been sorted. Virgin media are an absolute disgrace, please, please, avoid avoid avoid!
