  • Well it is a complete disaster now tbh, glad I'm not a mod on that shambles of a site.
  • Ahhhh, someone knew the s**t was going to hit the fan, or did you have to draw straws??:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    if nothing else, a lot of people are questioning what's going on, and some are realising the very close link with quidco.

    I hope people start realising that there's absolutely no point spending lots of time sharing the information just to line someone else's pocket. Especially when there are alternative sites (this one) that are open and completely honest about any income received.

    ...In other news, sorry for anyone currently trying to access UKDealShare (Well, since 10pm last night)

    Summary:Virgin Media has decided to have a UK wide Internet problem and therefore the server has been knocked out until they resolve the issue. It was working 5 mins ago but just as I was about to post a post outlining why the downtime happened the connection must have gone again :(

    The good news : The connection appears to be back up and running :beer:

    The bad news : I can't actually restore the site until I get home. I did think it was possible to do it remotely from work but it seems to have locked me out of doing this :(

    Hopefully the server won't set on fire tonight with all the deals that are likely to be posted from the past 24 hours or so!

    Thank heavens for that! I get a dialogue box pop-up, asking me for a username and password, thought I'd been ex-communicated! :eek:
