Re: Is the BBC website down?

I can ping bbc.co.uk but I can not get there. If you ask me its a routing issue on Virgins Network. This is why it effects more than 1 website!

No! All the other sites I've tried including Facebook are super fast.

Ah not down. Works fine for a few mins, then returns half the webpage like it did on that screen shot of the Virgin Media Status page.

Re: Is the BBC website down?

www.bbc.co.uk is very slow to load on my work connection (BT). News seems to be running better but still a bit sluggish.

The BBC have a whole slew of servers and Ip addresses, but just for comparison I'm seeing 212.58.251.197 for www.bbc.co.uk (which isn't working very well) at the moment.

Re: Is the BBC website down?

I have called a Principle Technician on his mobile phone, he has confirmed the website does not load properly and he has escalated the issue.

Why does the Virgin Media Help Desk not do this??? Do the customers have to do there job for them?

Not just the UK, I'm trying to go via Sweden and it's not working there either.

Twitter indicates that this is widespread: http://twitter.com/#search?q=bbc%20down
