Council phones go down
The Oxford city council’s phone system went down for several hours yesterday.
The council announced at 10.40am that its phone lines had stopped working and that nobody at the authority could contacted by phone.
The fault, which included the council’s 249811 customer service number, was repaired later in the day.
