Has VM HQ been taken out by Putin?
Total internet failure, VM web site down (via mobile phone) & 150 blocked due to high volume of calls.
Is this how it starts? If so, Putin, we surrender!

Re: Has VM HQ been taken out by Putin?
Same here in RG12 area. Got to service status page on my virgin media and it says broadband service status is good. But it isn't. I finally got past the engaged tone on 150, but after 25 minutes listening to some pop music I gave up. Internet been down for a while now so I guess something major. Maybe Putin.

Re: Has VM HQ been taken out by Putin?
And just what are MI6 doing about this, may I ask? What are we paying them for? They should definitely have snipped Putin's cable wire by now, but I expect we're going to have to think a bit bigger if we're going to persuade him to leave go.
