Hi @Cressy69,

 

Have you a postcode of the area so that we can run a quick check for you too see if there is maintenance going on there?

Hi @Cressy69, I can see there’s been some congestion on the local 3G and 4G masts for the last few days which is likely causing some issues. We do apologise for any inconvenience, hopefully things pick up soon. 

In the meantime, it might be worth restarting the phone(s) and resetting the network settings. If you let me know the make and model of the phone(s), I can walk you through this, or a quick Google search should help!

 

Thank you,

Rory

Were just about to set off home so if it does come good its to late and we turned the router off and phones and it made no difference at all but it would as like you have just said there has been "congestion" on the local masts!

Thanks Paul
