Three mobile data network GOES TITSUP across Blighty
Customers yell: 'My internet is broken. Arrrrggggh'
Three UK is battling what appears to be a major outage affecting its mobile network.
The company has been quietly fielding hundreds of messages via micro-blurt website Twitter, which seems to suggest that the disruption is widespread.
@ThreeUK what's going on with the mobile data? Down yet again 😬

But Three had yet to release a public statement about the TITSUP (Total Inability To Service User Porn) status of its network at time of publication.
The Register has asked the operator to tell us what has gone wrong with its network, and to let us know if it has any idea when the service will return to normal.
El Reg will update this story as soon as we know more. ®
Update
A Three spokesman gave us this statement after publication of this article. He told us:
We apologise that some customers are experiencing problems with data services currently. Our engineers are working to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.
Update 2
It's baaaaaack!
