“Yet again LineOne mail is down!!” one annoyed customer tweeted the firm.

A third said: “Can’t connect to email…why?”

It’s not clear how widespread the issue is at present.

And we’re yet to find out what the reason for the outage could be.

LineOne is the old name for the company, which eventually went on to become Tiscali, before finally turning into TalkTalk that we know today.
