Right, so you bought your verge and downloaded the Electrum Verge wallet. You might have found a receive address and actually sent some coins to your wallet. However, now your wallet won't update, you can't see your coins, you panic.
Stay calm and try what 
The only thing I want to add is that it's possible that the wallet still doesn't connect. The verge team have added new servers and you can check the latest ones on their twitter account.
Here a list of the current most up to date servers. Try all of them until one works!
