    Forum good for me but main site completely down - Windows 7 and firefox.

    Wasn't sure if it was because they had to adjust the weekly email with the ebay £5 thing or not but its been down for a good 10mins as I clicked it on from the email as well

    Hmmm...... :think:
    ERROR

    The requested URL could not be retrieved

    While trying to retrieve the URL: http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/

    The following error was encountered:
    • Unable to forward this request at this time.
    This request could not be forwarded to the origin server or to any parent caches. The most likely cause for this error is that:
    • The cache administrator does not allow this cache to make direct connections to origin servers, and
    • All configured parent caches are currently unreachable.
    Your cache administrator is webmaster.

    Looks like the Thompson's and eBay offers are playing havoc with the site.

    From the Twitter feed: Thanks for all the notes about the site struggling, mega popular email this week. The techies are working on it as we speak. MSE Archna
