Week Long Email Problems.

Evening Guys,

I think its fair to say that a lot of us have had a hugely difficult week,because of issues we have all had,with RECEIVING(sending email has been effected)emails.

"As of right now how are things with your inbox,are you back up and running and receiving the correct amounts of email without the technical woes of the last week,or are you still suffering?"

    Zammie21 In my case I have had no issues in the last week with receiving emails to my Virgin media email addresses which includes blueyonder addresses as well.

    As I understand it the fault that was affecting a small number of VM customers was resolved over the weekend.

      You've been lucky then,Graham_A.

      Given the amount of people that were peppering the forum over the past week all with the same story of woe,the problem impacted peoples incoming emails,on several fronts.

      For me,missed doctors appointment,a missing holiday receipt from Tui,and multiple emails from Amazon.

      And given I am still dealing with my mums estate who recently passed,I REALLY do hope that I'm not missing any very important emails.

        Zammie21 I'm not sure that luck comes into it.  I changed time critical accounts to non VM email addresses several years ago.

        I would be cautious about extrapolating the number of people affected with the number of posts on this forum.  Generally people only come here when they have an issue.

        Also, as VM stopped issuing new email accounts two years ago the number of accounts still open is limited.
