Royal Fail
BleepingComputer has been monitoring the ongoing outage at Royal Mail that has now exceeded 24 hours.

Track & Trace website visitors are met with a "Service temporarily unavailable" message, leaving them unable to track mail and parcel deliveries.
BleepingComputer observed, up until early morning hours of yesterday, the Track & Trace API was returning an HTTP 429 status code—indicative of too many requests received by the server.

Without being able to pay online, users would be left unable to print postage labels from home.
