As requested by Mod Team. posting again re the issues. Support team say they were resolved, but they're ongoing here.
Since Thursday evening, cannot access mail - server unreachable/ time out messages.
Have tried various browsers, devices, password changes etc with no luck.
What did work on my phone was turning off Wi-Fi. Unable to use mobile data / hotspot with laptop though as signal is poor indoors (plus that would be a workaround, not a fix!) Appears to be an issue Virgin has with my network? Aware this applies to others too as got this workaround from this board.
Received a text message from a company asking if my mail is down as they've been trying to mail me, but it's been bouncing back.
the issues identified by support definitely haven't been resolved, sadly = would appreciate any help!

More people tonight telling me mail to my address is returned as undeliverable - really hope this is sorted out soon !

@energise You posted in another thread Re: Can't access account or emails - Virgin Media Community - 5481708 that you had moved to an area that doesn't have Virgin Media and that as a result you no longer have a VM Broadband account. This, together with the non delivery messages that your contacts are sending you, are all indications that you VM email address has been closed down.

I only moved three weeks ago,though, and was assured the email would be available for 90 days - have checked on mobile data tonight, and the emails folk got the non deliverable message on have actually reached my inbox.. all very strange !

so the initial problem ( time out) is resolved - but now I cannot sign in as it says my email and password don;t match ! Both are correct.
this needs to be fixed.

As the issue is with a Gmail address you will need to take it up with Gmail. The VM Forum Team can only help with virgin media email issues.
Have you replied to the Private message that the VM Team sent in response to your new thread started today?
