Back here (just outside Guildford) in the last 5 minutes.

Same as others really, intermittent problems with different sites from about lunchtime then total Broadband and On Demand (TiVo) loss and a dead 150.

Still can't get over the fact that the only way to get decent info about what is going on in these circumstances is online, which of course you can't access!

Thank you for your patience.
Is that actaully correct or was that a [Mode Edit - do not use asterisks to evade the swear filter] take?

Similar here in Huddersfield.

re: MAJOR NETWORK ISSUE (17 Jan 2012)

I'd just been using the internet and was interrupted by a call from VM and a recorded announcement telling us that the local fault we reported yesterday had been resolved. Went back to the laptop only to find no internet and 150 engaged....... lol

All back to normal now as I'm sure you've gathered....
