Hi all,

I wanted to start this thread as another way of letting you know about outages and ‘known Issues’.

I will do my best to keep it up to date with every known issue/outage we have so please look here if you are experiencing any issues (Especially if the call centre is busy)


Thanks,
Joe.

Why hide this info here? Should it not go on the Slingshot.co.nz newtork status page?

Very good point and this is the main reason I joined geekzone as slingshots forum/network updates is useless.

hellonearthisman, I noticed you were a very regular poster in the slingshot forums in the past, is this why you came here as I have?

Hi All,

This outage listed is on our network status page.
Granted it is not as clear and easy to read as this version but I am working on getting that changed.

I think the sticky idea is a good idea too, also if we can keep posts to a minimum it will keep this easy to read and find info on.

Thanks,
Joe.
