   Further to our last update.

   Due to the unplanned outage last night we are experiencing issues. As a result all traffic has been routed through an alternative BGP route and is subsequently causing congestion on this secondary route. We are currently in conversation with a supplier to establish whether or not we can bring this primary route back online. Despite this we are seeing that services are restored, but with issues.

   Further updates will be made available as soon as we have them.

   At this moment in time, contact with the supplier is still currently underway to establish whether we can bring the primary route back online.

   We treating this with the highest priority that we can to restore complete service to all services affected, and apologise for the inconvenience caused so far.

   Further updates will follow as soon as they are available.
