As posted elsewhere - Plusnet site is AWOL - thoughts

[#1]

Why does this seem to preferentially happen on public holidays or other times when staff aren't around

Is this

• Just one of those odd things
• Murphy's Law strikes again
• Sabotage to let Chat responding staff have a few hours off
• I am imagining it

Some of us are around today.

You've acknowledged that there is a problem but not answered OJs question - which was "Why" is it happening?

@rongtw - I'd be surprised if it was that Bank Holidays are generally on the quieter side (From the call centre side of things anyway)

@7up - I've shared the details I have to share.

Maybe this is somewhat OT.

Yesterday, Good Friday so I would not expect a great deal of work causing interference, in the afternoon my SNRM  and Sync went haywire. Sync dropped from just short of 8000 to 6500 or less. Grrr unbelievable!
