AP52 on v+ box

Gavin78 · 15-02-2011, 20:43

Was fine at 7pm tonight went out for food came back 30 mins later and tv was blank so rebooted the box and now its sticking on AP52.

Been doing this on and off about 5 times now over the last 1 1/2 months sometimes the internet has gone as well.

This time the net is fine but the box is playing up. read a few things on the net about AP52 and a broken box.

What should I do just leave and and see what happens or give virgin a call?

There's a problem with the tv service. Not sure if it's a local problem (I'm in LS3), or a wider issue. The VM service status page gives an eta for resolving it as 2330.

Just checked the VM status page to see that its down as tried the box upstairs

I'm in LS9 and I've got the same. It was ok earlier but I've just got in and switched it on and I couldn't get any TV channels but On Demand worked ok. I switched off, waited a few mins then back on again and now get AP52. At least if others are having it it's not a problem with my box. Must be the service that's down. Airports in the north also had a problem today I see. What'll go next I wonder??????

Gavin do you mean the Brit awards? Terrestrial and Freeview are fine - the Brits are on ITV.

Not effecting normal tv though.

Although in the 12 weeks or so I've had vm this is about the 10th time Ondemand hasnt worked. Last time I personally had cable it was called NTL I lived in coventry and it was complete utter crap. I'm now in a extelewest area and I had cable for the first time in about 10years. I can honestly they're consistant lol.
