I've seen this both from my machine at work and from my machine at home.
 
NS14 is down too.
I switched my domain over to NS1 & NS2 just so I could start receiving emails, including the one needed to create an account for these forums.
Not sure if NS1 & NS2 are safe / allowed to be used when you're on the legacy free tier though. Would be happy to switch to an alternative when advised to.

I'm also having trouble with DNS resolutions to my domain. Was set up for NS18 and NS9. Switching to NS1 and NS2 as a test. Any idea how long this should take before things start resolving again?

I also just opened a ticket with zone edit, but I have no idea how long it will take them to respond.

Hi folks...

The error on those nameservers was discovered and fixed at the co-location facility and services was soon restored.

I am very sorry for the inconvenience.

thanks and take care
sandy
