    My virgin mobile account doesn't appear on Equifax, Call Credit, or Experian, but my Virgin Media cable account does.

    Hi capitaine,

    I'm sorry to see this.

    If you'd like any help from me could you email me with your details via the link in our profile here?

    All you need to do is copy and paste the link into your web browser and it'll take you to the Contact us form on our website. To make sure it reaches me could you also quote the code WRT135 - MSE in the subject line?

    Once sent you'll receive an automated reply with a reference number. Could you update the thread with this and I'll get back to you as soon as possible?

    Kind regards,
