Still down here in the UK. Been down since around 6.30pm BST (GMT+1) and it's now 11.37pm BST. I hope these idiots rectify the issue soon as we've got payments to process. Being as big as they are you'd think they'd have some type of back-up procedure for maintenance... Some how I don't think this is a scheduled service interruption! Ummmm…. Still down here in the UK.
