I think you are safe... as stated on their website:

Code:
Your funds are safe
For redeeming the funds after expiration, you can use a tool we've developed specifically for this purpose - see Gentle

For 2of3 recovery see this guide here

Bro, I have just mnemonics of that wallet.  And I don't understand how to use that tool much. Can you guide me please.  Seems it is asking for any type of zip file to upload.

I used this site to check the status of the site in question
http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/greenaddress.it
...and I also tried to access the site, it's currently up and running, no problem with page loading.
Have you tried to contact your ISP?

Greenaddress.it will send you a zip which contains the nlocktime for the transaction if you have email registered. You can set the time for it to be locked or can't be confirmed till that specific block, default is 90 days. Go to http://greenaddress.github.io/gentle/ and key in your mnemorics and put your zip file. Next, the transaction to push will have the inputs and the private key. Once the status goes to 0, you can push it and it will confirm very soon. The private key is needed for you to spend it elsewhere so you have to import it into another wallet.

That site only pings greenaddress.it to make sure that it isn't down and is hence not accurate.

But it is indeed up again.

@letyouearn

Apologises for the disservice, there has been a problem but as you said it has been since resolved.

The recovery zip is the one sent via email (if you have setup your email on GreenAddress) - I would strongly advice to set it up (and to also setup PGP if you use it) and multiple 2FA options (and backups, of both the mnemonic passphrase as well as your Google Authenticator code if applicable)

For best practices please check out https://blog.greenaddress.it/greenaddress-best-practices/

For any enquiry please don't hesitate to get in touch at info@greenaddress.it

Thanks
