Wierd logging in issue

This morning can't log in to either NatWest or Santander banking sites -can't even connect. Yet able to browse freely elsewhere - I've got the hated Rapport installed so just wonder if this is causing the issues ??
Anyone else?

    Having loads of problems here 50/50 logging in to any sites. I think last night's storms may have killed something. Rapport not installed.

    edit : downdetector showing loads of problems.

    edit : The only sites that seem rock solid are Plusnet and EE, everything else is slow - even MSE.

    edit : Tesco Bank OK, can't get into TSB, Santander or Halifax/BOS.
  • I can't log on to Barclays.
    Don't wait for your ship to come in, swim out to it.
  • I'm with BT broadband, and can't get access to Barclays or Santander, I think it's something linked with BT or PlusNet. Plusnet have posted a link on Twitter, stating that they are aware of an issue.

    Internet very iffy this morning.

    Lloyds, Bos, Halifax, TSB, M&S, First Direct, Barclays, Barclaycard - all unable to login. Nationwide and Yorkshire bank seem ok. Also various other sites - some ok and some not.

    Using Safari on a Mac. Rapport not installed. BT broadband.

    Can't get in to natwest either.

    I don't have Rapport installed.

    BT Broadband.

    It seems to be a problem affecting UK ISP's (certainly BT, probably others). Using a proxy (based in Germany) I can access natwest.com though I wouldn't attempt to use any proxy to log in to my account for security reasons.

    Definitely a BT problem. See their twitter feed

    unable to log in to any of my bank accounts with different banks?
    looks like the whole banking system is down-never known this before?

    Has to be weather related - atmospheric pressure / lightning strikes? I can't access any bank sites and BBC site is iffy. Other sites don't load well.

    May be forced to read a book instead!
