Re: Problem checking web mail

It has been sporadic for months. I dont see many consumers running their own email systems or knowing how to. I would not have a clue.

I pay Virgin a lot of money so I would hope more times than not it would work I know no service is entirely fault free.

Re: Problem checking web mail

Vm's webmail has been 'flaky' for years. Seems to be difficult to provide and maintain for some reason.

You dont pay them a lot for an e-mail service, overall its probably just pence in the rental cost.

It does work more times than not, in fact in recent years outages and issues have been very rare.
From my POV my cable connection has failed more times in the last 6 years than my e-mail (and I can count the cable failures on one hand, with fingers to spare).

Is that web mail though ? Normal email is fine, it's accessing through a web interface that always been pants with VM.

Re: Problem checking web mail

Definitely something going on, or an area fault but seems a bit coincidental

http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/6148878022

Power levels etc are perfect so it's not a line fault.

Re: Problem checking web mail

Don't use an ISP provided email service. It's pretty low on their list of priorities to maintain and run, but more importantly you have no guarantee to keep it if you ever change ISP's - a form of lock in.

Use one of the MANY free email providers like Outlook or Gmail.

Incidentally, I think in the 13 years I've used gmail I've had maybe 1 issue.
