Before doing anything else with this site I suggest, as I have many, many times
before:-

There needs to be a proper 24/7 help desk and a proper SLA with members.

When something goes wrong with the site there is just no way of alerting anyone
out of USA working hours and even after that often nobody responds. This is no
way to run a global e-commerce site of this scale.

Currently I cannot access the BL catalog using any browser on PC or tablet...
and this has being the case for hours...surely this requires a response at least
from someone, somewhere!!!!!

+1! Should go without saying, but apparently it doesn't!

  Hi Robert,

I got your email and have started the alert process after testing the problem
on several devices. So we know this is going on and are in the process of fixing
it.

This seems to be the very same bug we had yesterday after the launch of the new
TOS.

Great, thanks for the response, that is at least good to know. I still stand
by my original post though and with respect if the problem is known then it would
be really helpful if there were a message/banner on the site advising members
of this..especially those who don't use the forum.

Thanks again for your quick reply though, much appreciated.

Robert

Here's a novel idea. Roll back to the old ToS and we have our site back.
IT upgrades are always terrible planned and lack any testing.

Russell, I just noticed that when I log out, the catalogue works fine, but when
I log back in, I get the "General Error" message. Chrome, Win 10 desktop.

Thanks for this input. This is what we are experiencing as well.

Do you have any ETA on a fix?
