Update from the EU Blog:



'While we are investigating the cause of the Network outage, we wanted to
alert you that it may be a full day or two before we’re able to get the
service completely back up and running. Thank you very much for your
patience while we work to resolve this matter. Please stay tuned to this
space for more details, and we’ll update you again as soon as we can'.
