MSE Slowed Down Today?

Options
My broadband is flying, all other websites are blisteringly fast, but MSE seems to be wading through treacle. Did they forget to put a shilling in the meter? :D

    This forum seems fast enough to me right now. Did you forget to put a shilling in the meter?

    Probably different routing for the two of us and somebody forget that shilling in one of the routers on your path.

    Absolutely SLOW. Not so much slow as waiting between clicking on a thread and then that thread opening.

    Yup, hanging for me between page loads.

    "Waiting for images2.moneysavingexpert.com" seems to be the killer for me, often hanging for 2-5 seconds.

    Yup, it's taking seconds to download pages. We get so used to instant response nowadays that a few seconds seems like an eternity.
    Tall, dark & handsome. Well two out of three ain't bad.

    Glad you posted, MSE is very slow for me too.


    Using Windows 10, IE11.


    Other websites seem fine, just done a speed test and achieving broadband speeds between 68 - 71 mbps. No problems there.


    I thought the technicians would have sorted by now.
