Uswitch.com now working on a Sky Connection

Over the last few months we have read numerous posts on here about Sky Broadband Users who are having trouble accessing Uswitch.com

Behind the scenes Easynet have been working very hard to resolve this frustrating issue.

Today we have noticed that Uswitch.com is now resolving whilst on a Sky connection.

Looking at the traceroutes provided etc. It was nothing to do with Sky / Easynet. (imho)

Re: Uswitch.com now working on a Sky Connection

Well I'm pleased it is now working, obviously. A little disappointed at not knowing why it wasn't working, and especially why I could access it by night 10pm to 10am and not by day would ease my curiousity. I did eventually get a reply from Sky support who just wanted me to faff about with my browser cookie settings. They obviously hadn't read the evidence I'd sent them (and the link to this forum) proving it wasn't just me.
