Any other customers of Lloyds TSB been experiencing major difficulties in accessing their online banking portal ?
Made 8 attempts to Log-In in the past fortnight and only connected twice.
No explanation or even a mention on their Homepage of any ongoing issues and a Google News search shows only a couple of very brief stories of 'Denial of Service Attacks.'
How can a major UK bank and its customers continue to function in such circumstances ?

I haven't seen any problem. However I do use the Lloyds Bank app on my phone and iPad.

Hit BBC news pages now:

Thanks for putting up that link, herein lies the problem for me ;

"At the time, the bank was adamant that the "vast majority" of users were able to gain access to their accounts and move money around as normal.

It's likely that systems engineers blocked all internet traffic from overseas locations where the attacks seemed to be coming from, halting the disruption at least temporarily before the attackers switched their activity elsewhere."
