Hi guys

As you may be aware, we're having some service problems right now that
are affecting multiple services, including:

* The status page (viewing it and the ability to update it) along with
some other parts of the website such as selfcare
* Text news server
* E-mail (including Webmail) for those with blueyonder e-mail
addresses
* Webspace for those on xTW (ex-Telewest Network)
* Some broadband access problems for those in the North West (xTW
customers only)
* Some impact on TV for xTW customers

The problems are also affecting the technical support guys, who can't
currently post to newsgroups.

Our teams are working their socks off to fix these at the moment and
to restore service as quickly as possible and the good news is that
these services are now starting to come back online.

Apologies for the inconvenience this has caused.

Alex

Re: The Virginmedia website appears not to be working.

joglynne,

Much appreciated.

I have to say that in Scotland the Virgin TV service was fine, apart from around 2:30pm this afternoon the picture would go black for a few seconds, this happened 6 times at various intervals, the sound would continue as normal, so I thought perhaps this was something to do with them testing to get it all back up and running again, would that be the case do you think?

As far as my internet is concerned I am able to connect ok, but as I have a blueyonder email address this is still currently down at present, can't send any emails either.

Regards.

Re: The Virginmedia website appears not to be working.

It was a localized issue here, been out all day come back all up and running.

But I see we had a few other faults dotted around.
