Lots of comments on their FB page. Some folk are being very argumentative and demanding refunds etc. Personally, I have never had any major problems with that site.

It's very reminiscent of the comments you get on here when there is an overhaul of things. :-D

I find it very rare to have a problem with the site and if we do they do fix it quite quickly unlike some other threads I could mention ;-). Up and running great again now
