Edit5: People have had flyers through their door in the past few days, thank you to Ross from the BE forum for scanning his and saving me the bother : )
Edit4: The migration / update to the site failed? Or at least it is all back to how it used to be anyway
Edit3: Looks like it has been taken back into maintenance mode and is inaccessible again.
Edit2: Woo, new BE site layout too, not sure their site is supposed to be back online just yet.. but it appears to be! This is evident with the links being broken for the forum, account login not working and the SSL cert being invalid on some links!
Land Line + Bonding now offered:
New Main page:
Edit: This work has now started and the forum is down with a notice about upgrading the site, the BE website is offline. Customer services can help with general questions but not account changes or line profile changes.
The BE accounts / line profiles etc. system, forum and website will be down for upgrades from:
18:30PM / 30.08.2010
to:
05:30AM / 31.08.2010
Someone came into IRC today with some potential info to what is being done: "Also just phoned Be and apparently there ADSL bonding service will be starting in the next few days (beginging of sep)" [nice typing / typos too ; )]

Problems
Problems with the following sites..
2010-07-30 22:44:02, by drsox
Due to the IWF filter that BE have in-place on their network, the following sites have issues:
www.fileserve.com - No page load or "You need to wait 600 seconds to start another download."
hotfile.com - "Too many failed attemtps to login from this IP address." complete with typo, "503 - Service Not Available" or absolutely no response.
sharingmatrix.com - Looping "10 minute" wait count down or "An Error Occurred".
uploading.com - "Sorry, you have reached your daily download limit."
If you are experiencing problems with these sites please raise a ticket about it with BE and also comment on the forum thread.
If you think another site (not listed above) is having problems due to the IWF filter then please also post on the BE forum thread above.
Until recently we had a checker where you could investigate if this was the case yourself but we were told to take it offline : (
