Hi
My phone, or rather Virgin Mobile, has decided it doesn't want to let me connect to the National Lottery.
Worked fine previously but today I'm getting ssl protocol errors. Fixed network is fine. Other mobiles are fine and if I swap my Virgin SIM with my wife's O2 the phone connects without problems. All age restrictions / parental controls are OFF.
Any ideas?
Cheers

Hey stedav99, thank you for reaching out today. I am sorry to hear you cannot connect to the National Lottery page.
So this has happened today, have you definitely checked the app to see if partner controls are off?
Also, have you got a new phone recently?
Could you also let me know if your phone is iPhone or Android and are they updated to the latest IOS?
I also have some tips on this
Thanks.

Hi Matt
It's the same on various devices using the Virgin SIM - 2 x S1 Ultra and 3 different Samsung pads, all of varying ages, all up to date with patches etc. All exhibit the same behaviour - won't connect with the Virgin SIM but are fine with an O2 SIM.
Parental Controls are switched off but I've just noticed that when I click to go to that page it's changing my number to that of another phone on my account (ending 905). Do Parental control settings affect ALL phones on the account or do I need to set them individually? If individually how do I change for a specific phone? Ideally I want Parental controls switched off on all numbers on the account.
Cheers

Hi stedav99
Thanks for confirming that.
"Parental control settings affect ALL phones on the account or do I need to set them individually? If individually how do I change for a specific phone? Ideally I want Parental controls switched off on all numbers on the account."
Settings are specific to the mobile number.
Can you try a few steps for me to see if these work;
If none of these steps work, please let us know and we'll investigate further.

Hi Carley
No, other sites don't load, BetFred, Bet365, William hill
Cleared cache and cookies, no difference.
Nothing installed that wasn't there yesterday.
Have now worked out how to get to Parental controls page for the number that doesn't connect and it says Parental Controls are OFF.
Cheers

Do you get the same error message when loading up the other betting sites?
Can you confirm what device you have? Or please check the steps online on how to reset an APN (Access Point Name) on your device and let me know if that has worked.

Hi Carly
Yes, same error ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR
Get the same error if I put the SIM in:
My S21 Ultra
Wife's S21 Ultra
Samsung S7 pad
Samsung S4 pad
Grandson's Firepad
all work if I swap to an O2 SIM
