And yes I did let TS know so someone can hopefully build a picture of what may be going on.
Hi mr-b

Thanks for the proxy hint!!!!

Just confirmed that there are horrendous problems in the area at present due to some proxies not caching pages - this was from Tech Support this morning.



Like you, I tried manually adding a proxy to IE. Strangely, Birmingham proxy address cache1-brhm.server.ntli.net with port set to 8080 works well for me, but cache2-brhm.server.ntli.net remains a disaster!

This way I was able to access my (NatWest) home banking for the first time this week.

Tech Support said do remove the proxy in a few days when the issue is fixed (hopefully)
