In answer to request for backbone info, yes, the Northern part of the TAT-14 transatlantic cable has gone down. The Southern half went down earlier this month and hasn't yet been fixed so traffic has to go without a very high capacity link, hence congestion/slow links/packet loss will be seen to the USA on a large number of UK ISPs.
