Update
Our engineering team has been working around the clock to establish the cause of the increased latency, which has been difficult to trace due to the complex nature of the issue.

I’m pleased to report that we have identified and taken steps to mitigate the root cause. Although we still need to implement a full solution, we have applied temporary resource to some of our business critical services to minimise any further impact.

We continue to closely monitor the situation and want to reassure you that availability of the application remains our highest priority.

Whilst we invest heavily into system availability & disaster recovery, we will continue to make improvements in this area in partnership with our cloud services partners to ensure that any issues, when they do occur, are dealt with as quickly as reasonably possible.

Service availability updates are always posted here, and our goal is always to provide open and transparent communications with our customers when we do experience issues with the platform.

Status will remain in "Degraded Performance" until engineers are satisfied that this issue has been mitigated.

We will publish further updates as they become available, however our customer service team are always on hand on 03333 222 000 if you have any queries.
