There is a fault disruption

We are aware that a technical issue is affecting access to Facebook and instagram for customers of many Internet service providers. We are working with Facebook to restore full access for customers,

We have identified the problem and an engineer is on their way.

Reference no: F004078452

Due to be fixed by

Apparently, this unusual problem is affecting the HSBC website too.

Wonder if there's been some hacking taking place to take down certain sites.

One of the methods that modern day terrorists use is to cause disruption and financial loss via the internet...

Earlier this morning I was having weird problems with certain sites(eg HSBC banking), but by mid-afternoon the problems had gone.

looks like it is a dns issue again!

That would explain why I never seen the issue! Once again folks, don't use Virgin's DNS servers ;)

Yup, just think how many problems could be avoided if everyone bought their own proper router. In this one case alone, how many tens of thousands (or even hundreds) coukdnt access fb and how many calks did it generate to India? I am just glad that most of these annoying hiccups remain transparent to us.

Right, because clearly most people with their own proper router don't just leave the WAN to DHCP, which would pull Virgin's DNS anyway.

It's very slow here in Cardiff. At least an hour or so.

Problems popping up http://downdetector.co.uk/problems/facebook


Most of the UK is glowing red on the outage map.

Most of the reports are from VirginMedia customers.
