My site, along with seemingly the entire of Fasthosts seems to have gone offline. Anyone got any news, or having similar problems?

It would seem there are no straws left in the box marked Fasthosts now.

Also, some Telewest fibre has been cut which has downed the whole Gloucester area, where Fasthosts are based/have fibre to.

Yes, they used to have a BT fibre too, but costs were cut. Not for us customers though.

Friendof mine used to work there, and apparently they did ditch BT. Not sure if they've got a diverse routed service still but it doesn't look like it.
