However its gone down again today from 0800 so you won't get this.
It was fine for me each time cron downloaded emails avery 10 minutes.

IMHO a customer should not have to go to the homepage of their isp to
see a service announcement. Its simple enough for an isp to email their
customers. Most people on broadband connections get their email in
(almost) real time. I almost never visit paradise or orcon's home page.

Same here. I recently had a similar experience
No. You are assuming that:
a) The customer uses the ISP's email service

Yes. I agree with you all. My point was there's no point in complaining
here about something you were never offered. Just because you think it's
simple and obvious doesn't mean that someone else does. If you think it's
a reasonable enough thing then call Paradise Customer Services and ask

There's nothing in the TC about announcing outages, so there's no reason
