Dixons and Currys down

**jrisby** · 29-09-04

not sure if this was announced (i've not seen anything) but both dixons and currys are currently down for "upgrading".

**Hayley Read** · 30-09-04

Did you see a splash page saying this when you went to their sites?

**jrisby** · 30-09-04

Yes, I wouldn't have posted unless I had seen it Hayley.

I think one said for upgrading and one said for essential maintenance.

Dixons and Currys weren't aware?

No, nothing you can help me with Hayley.

I simply posted because the sites were down and I thought it was good form to let other affiliates know in case they were running expensive PPC adverts.
