EFHWEB3 Status Update

November 25th, 2008

The network problem affecting EFHWEB3 on Monday has been largely resolved. We have brought forward the planned migration from EFHWEB3 -> EFHWEB5 for many accounts, and over 90% of the sites affected by the problems on EFHWEB3 are now working correctly. Please note that the FTP service is still being worked upon as a lower priority to allow us to ensure all affected websites have been fixed.

If you are still experiencing problems with your sites, please email support@eurofasthost.com with details and we’ll look into it for you straight away.

Once again we apologise for the issue that affected so many sites on Monday, and we will be taking steps to ensure the problem doesn’t happen again. Thank you for your understanding.
