We've seen an increase in buffering over the last week or so - and we're working desperately to find out what the cause is. 

If you're having issues with buffering - please follow these steps to help us out:

 

Click this link: http://www.ipdiagnostics.com/request.action?case=F-CS-1285842&URL=tdvott-s.akamaihd.net&client=akamai
Once the link is clicked, it will display a tracking ID, so please PM this to me - it helps us isolate when the buffering has occurred via our logs.
Date and time also helps us enormously - ideally the date and time when buffering has occurred 

Thanks!

Are Spark users reporting buffering or mainly non-Spark users?

There's no pattern - it's across a range of devices / ISPs / Locations. So as you can imagine, it makes it harder to pinpoint a cause!

Ohh this is weird. Had complete failure issue and clicked the above link and everything came right.
Restarted phone. Tv with chromecast. Moved from android to ipad. Nothing worked. Clicked the above link after 20 mins of messing around. All good.

OK - so the support ticket that the link is pointing to is closed. Just hold fire while we work through a new process for capturing feedback. 

I'll update this thread once we have more info
