Title: Localbitcoins.com is down Post by: pegasus7293 on February 03, 2020, 09:51:31 PM Looks like the site is down. Can't login, just sends me confirmations over and over in the email, then never lets me in. Sometimes even the website won't load. Even get a 503 error.

Title: Re: Localbitcoins.com is down Post by: BitMaxz on February 03, 2020, 10:41:08 PM I tried to access the LocalBitcoins site but it's working fine and there is no tweet about the issue from their official Twitter account (https://twitter.com/LocalBitcoins/status/1222466919485149184). Except on Jan. 28 Maintenance but it was done look "The scheduled maintenance is currently over (https://twitter.com/LocalBitcoins/status/1222070697205424128)"
Your DNS might be blocking you for accessing LocalBitcoins try to replace your DNS with Google DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 or try to use a VPN service. Title: Re: Localbitcoins.com is down Post by: pegasus7293 on February 03, 2020, 11:47:35 PM ok. looks like it was Safari apple iOS issue.
Works on desktop if you stop it from trying to authenticate before the capcha.

First, they close the service for 25 countries of the world, then various throws appear regarding the site not working, as well as messages of various nature related to the difficulties of withdrawing funds from local Bitcoin users. Some telegram channels make the most sad forecasts. Title: Re: Localbitcoins.com is down Post by: Findingnemo on February 12, 2020, 08:40:46 PM Actually, the platform behaves quite strangely. I don’t know what the developers are up to, but what is happening raises many suspicions. FUDsters take advantage of their change in their ToS recently to exaggregate more to be changed in the bitcoin price movements. But I am constantly using localbitcoin.com much often and never faced any issues and if there is maintenance from the team they will give prior notice to every user.First, they close the service for 25 countries of the world, then various throws appear regarding the site not working, as well as messages of various nature related to the difficulties of withdrawing funds from local Bitcoin users.
