Major Network Incident

HD395964

 

 

Hello,

 

We need to make you aware that a major network event has been declared affecting the Shetland Isles.

 

The root cause of failure has been confirmed and is due to a sub-sea cable planned works carried out by a third-party provider. Due to a break in a third-party subsea cable connecting Shetland with the Scottish mainland, some phone, broadband and mobile services are affected.

 

Engineers are working to divert services via other routes as soon as possible  and our external subsea provider is also looking to restore their link quickly.

 

Anyone who needs to call 999 should try their landline or their mobile, even if they don't have signal from their own mobile provider.

 

We will provide further updates upon significant developments.

 

We're sorry for any inconvenience

 

Thanks,

 

Michael Gauterin
