Virgin TiVo down

21 replies

So, Virgin TiVo boxes are apparently down nationwide.

Ours has been down for a couple of hours now. Anyone else?

I don't really watch the tv much in the day, it's on for background noise so it's just a bit irritating.

Mine is back up as of 2 min s ago

Isseywith3witchycats · 02/12/2021 14:09

Ours is still not back on so listening to planet rock on alexa

ratspeaker · 02/12/2021 14:10

Yes been out all morning, TV, email and even their service status.
We have an internal aerial so I'm using that but can't listen to Planet Rock on Freeview.
Then I remembered dab radio. Dusted it off. Happiness now

And I'm wondering why I pay Virgin now

ratspeaker · 02/12/2021 14:11

Oh didn't know Alexa could get planet Rock.
Come to think on it I might get it through laptop

EBearhug · 02/12/2021 14:14

Yes, I usually have the radio on in the background in the day. I'm listening through my laptop now.

ours was off earlier. just checked and back on now.

FlipFlops4Me · 02/12/2021 15:12

Ours is still off. FreeView going strong though, so DH is settled (disabled and TV means a lot to him).

Ours has gone again. In the middle of Lingo, annoyingly, as I do like a quiz show when I'm feeding the baby Grin

Our virgin tv is down but I have been enjoying the peace and quiet of having no tv for a while.

Our internets absolutely fine but I can't access their website. Presumably because of heavy traffic.

Ours is down too, glad it's not just me! Only wanted to have BBC News 24 on in the background.

Samcro · 02/12/2021 16:12

scratch what I said earlier ours is down.

Mummylin · 02/12/2021 16:38

Mine went down just before 11am , I still have internet and house phone, it's just the tv. It's seems it's very widespread , hope it comes back on soon ( waves to Samcro )

HeartsAndClubs · 02/12/2021 19:25

Still down here. Only TV though.

Means I’ll have to go and watch masterchef in bed, under my nice new warm duvet with my hot water bottle. But we all have our crosses to bear. Grin

RoseDog · 02/12/2021 19:31

It's down here except channels 1 to 4 like back in the olden days Grin

Mummylin · 02/12/2021 19:37
