Customers of TalkTalk are currently experiencing a major internet outage that began around 7 AM today, March 25, 2026. Reports indicate that the outage is affecting users across various parts of the United Kingdom.
As of 8:10 AM, many customers reported issues with their internet service, although some noted that their physical line connection to TalkTalk remains active. This suggests that the problem may be related to TalkTalk’s DNS servers or an issue with peering and routing.
Interestingly, some users have found that using a VPN appears to resolve the connectivity issues temporarily, allowing them to regain access to the internet. This workaround has been noted by several customers who are trying to navigate the outage.
By 8:17 AM, it became clear that the outage was also impacting TalkTalk Business customers, further broadening the scope of the service disruption. However, reports began to emerge around 8:20 AM that some customers were starting to come back online, indicating a potential resolution for at least a portion of the affected users.
Despite the ongoing issues, TalkTalk has not yet updated their Service Status page regarding the outage, leaving many customers in the dark about the situation. As of 11:11 AM, there has been no official comment from TalkTalk addressing the outage or providing further details.
The lack of communication from the ISP has led to frustration among users who are seeking clarity on the situation. Many are turning to social media to express their concerns and seek updates from the company.
As the situation develops, customers are advised to monitor their connections and consider using VPNs if they are experiencing difficulties. Details remain unconfirmed regarding the full extent of the outage and the expected time for resolution.
