Yep, that's right. I just tried calling from my mobile and it's not working. Sounds like the text I got through was just a fluke... maybe if you try enough times you will get through. I just tried calling my mobile from my desk phone, and it took about 15 seconds to connect, but did get through.
We're getting the same in Oxfordshire with Virgin. I did manage to call my mobile from our home phone, but I can't call out from my phone, except to call "789" for some reason. I tried voicemail and that didn't work either.

yes I was in sutton surrey and could not use my virgin mobile to make calls, but i did receive a call from a house line and I was able to send texts but then that stopped as well.
It was working again around 6.15pm i think.

I have been with them since march and this is the first problem yet.
