Default Internet running slowly for anyone else?

Tried getting a couple of quotes for insurance renewal - mcdirect & express insurance websites weren't working so gave them both a call. The phone operatives said they were having trouble with their internet & internal systems running slowly. A few other websites I use often are running slowly but I just downloaded a 3mb file in about 9 seconds. Bit baffled - DDoS failures spreading across the net maybe? Any tech's know anything about this?

Its Hovis spamming the world about Cardif winning the cup of something silly, I would check your service providers status page as its more likely to be a local thing with them then the 'whole' internet going down.
