Hi All,

The changes were made at 5am yesterday (London) and made public 5 seconds later. We are unable to control the level of freshness your ISP likes to keep their data at I’m afraid. But I must admit I didn’t think it could go on this long, I thought they were more on the ball than that.

I do appreciate your frustrations, we are on Sky and using their DNS servers we are still unable to see our own site.

If anyone is fed up waiting check out this

What is going on? I have tried on 3 different computers using 3 ISP’s and it’s the same message, page not found. Have gone to http://anonymouse.org but this will not allow login to account. Come on Ebid get it sorted out. Trying to access Ebid UK for 24 hours, page not found message! What is going on?

“eBid will be going for it’s move to a new data centre in Dallas, Texas at around 4am GMT (5am London, Midnight New York) tomorrow morning.

We will be moveing hundreds of gigabytes of data over the atlantic and it could take a few hours. We will also be chaning our DNS entries which will mean the efficiency of your ISP will determine when you will be able to see eBid again, some could be as soon as we flick the switch back on, some could be a few more hours.

We hope to flick the switch back on at 7am GMT on Monday.

The changeover will not have any affect on URLs, the site will not look any different, it will just be over 200% faster and bulk uploads will be around 1000% faster.”
