MINOR Closed VoIP
AFFECTED
VoIP
STARTED
Nov 20, 10:35 AM (20 hours ago)
CLOSED
Nov 20, 11:30 AM (19¼ hours ago)
DESCRIPTION
One of our VoIP carriers is reporting that they are aware of some issues that may be impacting calls – engineers are investigating and more information will follow as soon as possible.
Resolution: One of our carriers had a problem affecting calls - this would have affected some inbound calls to some numbers that we host.

Our carrier reports: Following on from our earlier issues we are now confident that we have isolated the problem but the underlying cause is still being investigated. Our initial findings are, as you can expect, that the failover systems did not meet our expectations in this event and that itself will be taken on as a project by our team to ensure greater resilience going forward.

Since 14:30 we're seeing packet loss on Data SIMs. We're investigating this with our carrier as we're not seeing loss elsewhere.

MINOR Closed Data SIMs

CLOSED

DESCRIPTION
At 11:02 we saw a number of Data SIMs drop and immediately reconnect. This looks to be caused by something in the mobile carrier. Outage for affected customers would have been very short (a few seconds for most)

CLOSED
Sep 01, 07:09 PM (2½ months ago)
DESCRIPTION
We're currently investigating reports of routing problems to some destinations.
Resolution: BGP is used on the internet to exchange where to route IP addresses. Messages are constantly sent between routers to update this routing information. Today, some of our routers had failed to properly update their routing information which in turn caused routing to some destinations not to work.

CLOSED
Aug 05, 04:00 PM (3½ months ago)
DESCRIPTION
We have erroneously sent some customers a bill for "usage topup". These are in the process of being credited as they were sent in error. This was caused by the change we today to remove the monthly quota on some customer lines.
Resolution: Credit notes have now been issued - we do apologise for the problem this caused!

CLOSED
Aug 02, 10:18 PM (3½ months ago)

Customers had been reporting problems accessing some services run by Apple this evening. Earlier in day we re-enabled our direct peering connection with Apple, and traffic seemed to have moved over OK, but it appears that this is the cause of this problem.
Resolution: We've disabled this new link, the affected Apple services are working again. We will contact Apple to discuss this further.
