Power outage Spain affects Movistar

[Bessy765]

Hi all, lost internet yesterday late afternoon/evening now back on but slow, it appears there was a massive power outage just in case anyone was using Movistar

We've just found out that Spain has had a massive power outage which is causing issues and have declared a state of emergency.

The provider Movistar is a Spain based carrier so this has impacted their telecommunication services as they've had a wide scale blackout it seems.

We are currently just following the news cycle to see when it's expected to be resolved but this is unfortunately out of our hands at the moment.

All internet providers were affected. No leccy, no Internet.

I was cooking on the balcony barbie (I'm all electric) and candles at night, very romantic and a digital detox wont do me no harm'.
felt like back in the 70s UK power cuts

I was 15 when the three day week started working in a sheet metal factory, I loved the fact I was only allowed to do 8 hours a day, everyone else was on 12 hour shifts.

Did we suffer back in those day's I can't remember as many problems without Internet and coffee machines, our apartment here in Spain is all electric but still managed with the Paella burner but did kick myself for selling a double burner gas hob that spent many years in the awning and didn't need it obviously we do, once in a blue moon.
