Anyone else experiencing UTVipXL speed problems at the moment?

    Each time I've dialled the XL number today I've heard three long beeps followed by strange dial tones. I then connect at 12.0kbps (as opposed to 24 or 26 normally). The PAYG UTV number, Pigsback number and XL rollover number are all working as normal.

    UTV support told me that mine was the first report of this they'd had all day. Is anyone else having similar problems?

    Edit: It's getting worse-I'm connected at 7.2kbps now.:rolleyes: Coincidentally we had the Eircom winback heavies around late Tuesday night (I had thought we'd be safe residing in the wilds of Mayo but apparently not) and I had told them how good our XL speeds were compared to the Eircom PAYG number. Hmm....

    Good to know I'm not the only one-I've had a few failed connection attempts well.

    I'm still connecting at 7.2 on XL, even at 4am. Just tried the pigsback payg number, got the weird tones and it hung on me. Tried pigsback again and it is ok now. :dunno:

    Have made two calls to UTV support and am still waiting for them to call me back...
