    Yes, as of yesterday, when pressing 1 to bypass the telephone tree messages as per normal, it cut me off each time instead of skipping to reading out phone number. Ho hum, adds a bit longer to the process. 

    Scratch that, it's doing it when I'm not pressing any buttons. Seems to be intermittent.

    Make your own Pot Noodles using a flower pot, sawdust and some old shoe laces. Pour in boiling water, stir then allow to stand for two minutes before taking one mouthful, and throwing away. Just like the real thing!
  • Yes I’ve had it cut off after the “thanks for calling the competition line” message. 😢

  • Same for me, I’ve only managed to get 1 or 2 entries so far
  • I've tried calling a couple of the other numbers and it's doing the same, sometimes it works sometimes not
  • Yep, I'm having the issue intermittently too. 
  • yes - it's happening more often now

    It's getting worse for me. I'd say 1 in 10 calls are successful. Some calls are even failing to connect at all now.
