KARENSKELLY,
If the loo has worked in the past then the most likely cause is that debris has blocked the fill valve nozzle. It needs taking apart.

or the float is catching on something.

I have a very similar problem.
The cistern refills, but incredibly slowly.
I have opened it up, to try and see what is going on, the valve (i think) is spraying water out in a fine mist rather than filling the cistern quickly.
Can i fix this, or do i need to buy a new valve?
Really confused.

Colonel Moran,
You also need to take the valve apart and remove any debris in the nozzle.
