Hi Thomas,

As another VM customer, I can well understand your distrust of "customer support" understanding the issue.

Have had similar problems in the past, and eventually discovered that it was Virgin's non-responsive DNS service.

8.8.8.8 (Google's service) has been *much* more reliable. I've had no problems since I put that first.

Regards

Ian

Hi there,

just wanted to check if any other Virgin Media users here are experiencing this: When I try to go to http://bitfolk.com or when I try to ssh to my VPS it takes forever before timing out. Worked fine yesterday but started seeing the issue this morning.

I've called Virgin Media's support and they say they'll fix it within 24-48h but I'm not confident the person I spoke to has fully understood the issue.

Best,
Thomas
