    Hey mate using phone too linky fails, I don’t suppose they have given any more info?

  • message from Virgins website timed 18:25 today: (I’m on Virgin Cable but can’t access ebay)

    If you’re calling having lost your internet connection since 5pm, we are currently experiencing a nationwide fault resulting in loss or intermittent loss of connection. Please do not change any of the settings on your router. You may need to power down your router for 5 minutes and then turn back on, one ore more times to re-establish your connection. Our engineers are working to resolve this issue as soon as possible. Virgin Media apologise for any inconvenience caused.

  • Bob Mitchell

    Crawley – down.
    Not just DNS though – I tested with alternative name servers with little result.

  • Nicola

    I wonder how long they’ll take to fix a ‘nationwide fault’!? 🙁

  • MM

  • 3 User

  • Paul

  • lee williamson

  • Yoooogz

    down in bristol!!!!!!!!!!! help me virgin media, neeeeeeeeeeeeeeed inttttteeeeeeeeeerrrrnet accessssssseeesss!!!

  • Havoc

    Virgin down nationally. Over heating of core backbone routers in London area which is impacting all network.

  • Monts

    Ok it’s back on now….20 minutes of ipad browsing coupled to my iPhone zapped 20% of its charge!

  • Harry

    Middlesbrough and whole of north east is down bad times!!!

  • MM

    Dodgy Aircon then… ?? ^^ 🙂

  • Romford Rob

    No internet at all for a few hours now in Romford – on line via a PAYG dongle. Virgin not answering the phone and upto about an hour ago couldn’t get through, but the TV has stayed on. Am a bit naffed of with them as the service status bit of the website said it would be resolved by 8.49pm – another unrealistic statement.

  • Yoooogz

    Still waiting in bristol

  • Jon

    Over heating! That implies a serious failure by the HVAC suppliers, which for a major switch centre with redundant grid connections, UPS and AC systems simply should not happen, or a serious managerial failure to engage the right service level in some part of the service (saving money by skimping on preventative maint etc.). If thats the case, heads should be rolling for this.

  • back on here in bristol. reset your router and give it another go

  • Yoooogz

    all good in bristol, thanks

    I’m happy to see you all found this site useful for connecting with others affected by the issues with Virgin Media last night.  I’m starting work on revamping this site with the view to make it much more useful and provide further information in future.

    Cheers.
