Today I've noticed my TV keeps freezing, I log onto the computer and keep on to check whats up, I noticed I'm getting millions of correctable/uncorrectable codewords, then my line just dies with T3/T4 errors appearing, my power levels go haywire, even going as far as -28.42 before randomly locking to one download channel, eventually my modem just completely freezes and I'm forced to reboot losing what I originally had.

TV/Internet has died as I write this, currently showing

Upstream(Thing is, this is useless as ive had to physically reboot the modem to try and get online losing all the stats, this was posted after the last reboot, but the upstream levels have dropped to as low as 29, I've had as bad as 35 T3 timeouts in one day..)

This keeps happening, my internet dies, my tv freezes for moments or completely for a little while, its only just started today, what could cause this? Please help. I've been on the 50mb tier since it came out and have not had problems this severe before.

Call Virgin you've an issue affecting your downstream path given it's killing your TV as well and there's probably nothing you can do about it. Might be an area fault which they might advise you of.
