PayPal System Availability and/or Current Problems Report

If you wish to check on the status of the PayPal network, you can see their latest news here:
https://www.paypal-notify.com/eventnotification/search?eventSearchType=PayPalSiteStatus

You can see current system information and review past system problem reports.

This may be useful if you find that your transactions are not happening properly or if you have customers complaining of problems while using PayPal as a payment method.

Re: PayPal System Availability and/or Current Problems Report

Further, within your PayPal account preferences, you can subscribe to email notifications about system problems and scheduled maintenance activities.

Here is a sample email which was sent today:> mtsoncall Jan 08 2007

The PayPal APIs were intermittently unavailable between 01-08-2007 08:08 PT and 01-08-2007 10:00 PT

During this time API calls intermittently failed with a 500 error.

This issue has been resolved.

We apologize for any impact caused by this incident.

Sincerely,
PayPal Merchant Technical Support Team
