Hi there,
After researching all morning regarding Facebooks downtime I have found a few conclusions which you may be interested with!

Apparently, according to various twitter 'tweets' Virgin Media customers are unable to access Facebook with their Virgin Media WiFi.

Is this true? Can anyone confirm this?

Thanks, Lewis.

    I can access Facebook OK. It could be some sort of routing issue which will not necessarily impact all customers.

    No problems for me either. I have been on and off Facebook quite a bit today.

    My connection is fine too but i have seen a grumble on a Kindle forum from someone who can't get any wireless access to FB.

    I had issues with VM/FB earlier this afternoon, it appears to have cleared up.
