These companies need to carry out a disaster plan on their business operations and stop whining at mother nature. Companies that decide not to ask the question, "our business relies on a phone/broadband being available 100% of the time, whats our backup plan when someone or something disables that line", should never get compensation.

I live over 35 miles away in East Sussex! Apparently my exchange is routed through Paddington. Anyway, they are trying to reroute and may or may not be successful, either way the estimated fix time from BT is 4 days, allegedly.
