Summary

A major internet outage in Maghull has left residents and businesses offline for three days after third-party contractors dug too deep during sewer work, severing Openreach cables. Local MP Bill Esterson called it “disgraceful,” highlighting how critical internet is today — with a pharmacy owner describing chaos, no phone lines, and no card payments. Openreach engineers are working around the clock to repair multiple damaged cables and stabilize the excavation site, apologizing for the disruption and aiming for full restoration by early Saturday evening.
