Open Reach close India Call Centre till June. Fingers crossed you don't loose your phone/broadband

Received from my phone/broadband supplier (Daisy Communications)

Dear customer,

BT Openreach – the organisation that maintains the UK PSTN & ISDN infrastructure which supports traditional (non-IP) based telephone lines, along with ADSL and fibre broadband connections – announced on Tuesday that it had closed its overseas call centre due to a lockdown in India. This has now restricted all orders and faults to key critical services until at least 1 June.
 
In addition, Openreach has declared a Matter Beyond Our Reasonable Control (MBORC) on ALL products, effective 24 March 2020 at 23:59. The declaration of MBORC means Openreach may not be able to meet its normal Service Level Agreements (SLAs) / Guarantees and removes the recourse normally available to suppliers when these are not met. This also unavoidably impacts all communication providers, including Daisy Communications, in ensuring services are provisioned and repaired within the normal guaranteed timescales.
