Seems that all Yahoo services are down, including all those provided for BT. I haven't been able to access my email for over 6 hours.

BT's service status page http://www.btyahoo.com/broadbandhelp/status is not working.

The BT service status telephone number tells us about a problem at a single exchange before mentioning in passing that there may be a problem with everyone's email.

The Yahoo UK homepage seems to be working aswell as the status page but most of it is blank.

My e-mail is showing a 404. Strange.

I've tried again and it's showing a 404. Yahoo.com seems to be fine (I'm on Blueyonder).

EDIT: I can get back on but a few images aren't showing. I typed uk.yahoo.com instead. Not sure if that makes much of a difference.

Yeah I can now get uk.yahoo.com but the news feeds, mail and images don't work.

It's telling me I have new mail but refuses to show it to me.

Apart from the fact that POP3 email access (to Yahoo Mail at least) doesn't work.

looks like the downtime was caused by a power cut: http://news.zdnet.co.uk/internet/webser ... 615,00.htm
