Latest from NEOS Regarding Restoration:
Dear Customer You may start to see your services recover but please be aware there are many fibres/tubes to complete so services will remain at risk until all fibres are spliced and the cable is back in the ground. Fibre supplier initially advised approx. 10hrs for splicing of whole cable but they appear to be slightly ahead of schedule. We will further update further as splicing progresses and will advise of ETR when we have further detail of progress. Thank you again for your continued patience Kind Regards NEOS NOC
