Anyone having issues with xbox live?

I'm sure that if it had been a different time of year, then these errors would have been sorted by now, with Christmas, MS was probably running a skeleton shift office staff, so any problem solving would, in theory take longer. The obvious solution is, if more servers are needed for the number of users hitting live at christmas time, and they have sales records to show X number of units sold in the months coming up to christmas, they should have gotten more servers up & ready before christmas.

As much as i can understand why people are peeved, its usually, as said, an impecible service, its been a hassle, but i'm happy to forgive and forget. Discarding the 2 weeks of problems since christmas (10 days here, started working fine on the 3rd jan) i've had perfect performance from, and access to Live, since 2nd Dec 2006, aside from scheduled downtimes.
 
Yep, been fine today. I wonder if it's all sorted now? Or is it because most people are back at school/work?

I would hope not. This is arguably the most important time of the year for this service so should be fully manned. Anything less is daft.

p.s

Hit 4k gamerscore not long ago. :D just wnated to say it

Service was pretty much back to normal tonight, went funny for about 15 minutes I reckon but was fine after that.
Hopefully this is all sorted now. :)
 
Played for about 5 hours today and it was perfect, good job as much profanity was had between me and my friend (who stayed over) who wanted to play.

I agree its the first time a constant problem has appeared as far as I can remember, but come on its been rubbish since Xmas day, surely they can add more bandwidth by now, to me it looks like they are just hoping to get away with the influx of members and hope it calms down a bit soon without actually doing nothing.

It's not often I agree with you but we pay for this service.
 
I agree with Mr.Men to, it's not the fact that it's only like £1 of service we are missing but times that by 10 million users and its a problem.

Had one connection problem at about 12:30-01:00 this morning but apart from that it was flawless. Even xbox.com is far quicker than it has been in weeks.
