So when does SE plan to credit our accounts for the multiple ongoing service issues?

It seems ok now, but at the time it was always packet lost.

Okay. Good to hear. If you have trouble again, you can find out more by doing a traceroute to your server and looking for the hop with the packet loss. I like to start with a traceroute and then ping the hop with the trouble to see how severe the impairment is at that point.
