in Gone off!
Anybody know anything? It's been down for hours and they're not giving out any information when you talk to them.

I do hope this isn't yet another Denial of Service attack, with a consequent loss of customers' data.

    Just called them and they said that its down for maintenance and updates and to check back in should be up and running in the next hour?

    Could just be fobbing me off though ;)

    They've done some kind of update which is absolutely shocking.

    Completely reset our account (no order history, favorites or anything else like that - all lost) and the new website is basically unusable.

    Worst update to a large company website service I've ever seen!
