Maghull Internet Outage Explained | Liverpool News

A major internet outage hit Maghull, Merseyside, knocking out landlines and Wi-Fi for up to 3,000 Openreach customers after contractors accidentally damaged underground cables. Engineers are working around the clock to restore service, aiming for full recovery by Sunday — though local MP Bill Esterson is demanding an investigation, especially since critical services like pharmacies and GP surgeries were left in the dark. One pharmacy worker called the situation “chaos,” revealing how utterly dependent we’ve become on constant connectivity for even the simplest daily tasks. Openreach apologized and urged anyone still experiencing issues to contact their provider — minor glitches may linger after such large-scale repairs.
