    Guess the data's are sound and safe. The only problem is that while its down we can't proceed with new orders. Subribtion during this time may get delayed and the more the like.

    Now they have put up a maintainence message. - Even inside the account. I was able to login an hour ago but couldn't go any further.

    There was nothing mentioned about mainainence about 11 hours ago after it was down first.

    I am VERY upset about this.
    Earlier (the first of now three times its down) I was a bit amused.. I said from the start that it looked like an attack on paypal.
    I was amused at the fact that someone managed to get PayPal, the one website in the world I hoped had the best security, down.
    Now I'm just upset.
    The beginning of the month is when people have the most money to spend, and is the time when I make the most money.

    I know its not paypals fault, but if they dont get it back up soon I'm really going to loose my mind.

    It's not routine maintenance... Something is truly screwed.. The problems go above and beyond getting to their web site. I'm not seeing money come in/out, and after taking a break to get some gas in the lawn tractor, to my surprise, pay at the pump did not want my PayPal debit card. Said the card was not accepted, or had problems, try again... Tried several times...

    The problem is a bit more wide spread than just the web site.

    Could you at least have read the entire thread? =/
    Some script kiddies are probably just attacking the paypal servers.

    No, Paypal isn't shutting down, but everything isn't the way it should be either.

    Let me ask you this, how many websites do you have.. or how much of YOUR revenue do you depend on Paypal for?

    PayPal is nearly my only method of income online.
    I use adsense / maxbounty and other aff programs, but a day without paypal can mean thousands lost.
