30 minutes before 'blip' time. Pretty acceptable. This is what I get 24/7 until the dreaded evening 'blip'. I would just like to know from VM what they feel is the cause and what they are going to do about it. Is it temporary or permanent? If it's permanent then I will be asking for refunds.
I haven't had the promised Himalayan phone call yet.

I will retest if and when the blip commences this evening.
