Vertikal Down

You may have noticed that Vertikal.Net was down for several hours today, this caused by a catastrophic line failure into the centre where it is hosted in Switzerland.

We can only apologise for any inconvenience which also knocked out all of our email in both Germany and the UK, causing great frustration this afternoon.

This is the first time we have seen such an outage in three years – the last time it was a fire in substation. Hopefully it will be a great deal longer before the next such incident.
