All boxes down?

Down here in Manchester,since last night but nothing on bigmaq,usually quick on there which is making me wonder if it`s local or national.

its a local problem, some channels ok some not, probably either a local fault or maintanence, not keys

Aye,thought so,it was just that all the channels that are scrambled,are scrambled and the fta ones are ok which led me think it was a key issue,which was the case the last time it went down.

If anyone had actually checked the VM service status page, they would have already noted the problem: Virgin Media > help > service status > status ticket:region=NW

Didn`t even know they had one,but i does now

That VM status update only refers to M38 area of Manchester.
Seems odd that only scrambled channels are affected.. Im still holding out for a key change

Indeed!

Getting strange now,all my other services work fine,inc the v+ box i have in the other room,all channels no problem,just the euro`s gone.It does feel like a key change,but seeing as i have no idea how the signals work etc i can`t say for sure.

As stated it is an area problem,there is no key change.
Wigan is also down.
