Easy access to my NTL mail via virgin mobile

Ordered a Virgin Pay As You Go SIM card and use the 30p/day. Quite handy. But there is a problem. When I tried to access my ntl webmail via virginmedia.com web page it costed me lots of time to download. DOes anyone know a simple address to direct to the login page?

I know this might seem a bit of a roundabout way of doing things but you could try picking your ntlworld emails up using something like google gmail? The virginmedia website is blocked in work but gmail isn't so I've set gmail up to get my ntlworld emails via pop3.

Doesn't matter how many roundabouts, as long as it is faster than straight way.
Can you give some tips about the roundabout? I never used gmail, but I do have a hotmail I hardily use.

Unfortunately the ntlworld.com e-mail experience isn't that great at the moment.

Once your e-mail is migrated to Virgin Media Mail then it will work alot better on a Mobile Web browser

Have to confess that I only discovered the gmail way of looking at my NTL emails earlier today after being frustrated by the office web filter. That filter blocks hotmail so I can't see if it's possible to pick up NTL emails via that route. I will take a look this evening (haven't checked my hotmail this month).

So NTL mail service is still not part of Virginmedia?

Even better...Tried on GPRS and it is fast enough to get my mail to phone. Now I can sit down to craw eBay without hurry.:D
Cheers, guys!
