Thousands of TalkTalk Users Lose Internet in UK Outage

Tens of thousands of TalkTalk customers experienced internet connectivity issues on Friday morning, with reports flooding in from across the UK.

DownDetector, a popular outage tracking website, recorded over 30,000 reports starting around 10:00 BST. Affected users took to social media, particularly Twitter, to voice their frustrations, especially those working from home.

TalkTalk confirmed the issue was resolved by approximately 11:30 BST, but did not disclose the cause. In a statement, the company apologised for the inconvenience, noting that some services remained unaffected during the outage.

The incident mirrors a similar failure at Virgin Media a month ago, which caused intermittent problems until the following morning. Virgin Media attributed that outage to a technical fault in its core network.
