    Yes, I'm on the phone to them now.

    I'm wondering if it something to do with Virgin network.
  • I use the same combination as you - Chrome - Santander - Virgin. No issues.

    One thing I'd check would be Chrome - Settings - Advanced Settings - HTTPS/SSL and check that 'Check for server certificate revocation' is not selected.

    Nope. I'm with Virgin also...;)
    I was thinking about the certificate permissions like fenlander, but not sure if that would affect all the browsers you've used. Worth a try though.

    No it wasn't selected.

    Virgin have had a look and can't find anything wrong. Its strange. I don't have any probs with other sites and Santander are certain they don't have any problems.

    If I do a computer reset to a couple of weeks ago - could this maybe help? Not that I know how to do this or what the implications are :eek:

    I have heard that ISP's can sometimes cache stuff you want to refresh. Seems a bit unlikely in this case, especially as others on Virgin are having no problem. Don't know if rebooting the Virgin router would force a refresh, but might be worth a shot...
    Or if you can try your laptop on another internet connection and see if you still have the problem.

    If you do a 'System restore' it''s reversible if it doesn't solve the problem.

    Yes, could take the laptop to my dads and try on his connection.
