Would've loved to be a fly on the wall in that office - But then it would probably send my empathetic anxiety through the roof. I can imagine some stressed people for 45 minutes give or take.

I was a bit quick to blame vodafone when I first was notified of an issue as I could resolve fine (I'm with 2 Degrees) but tested on two clients both on Vodafone and it didn't work on either.

Must have just been 2D dns caching the records. I soon found it went higher and was just looking at dns for digital.govt.nz and sure enough the NS servers for that domain reverse to Liverton Security.
