Maybe you bandwidth is too slow. The speed of internet is not enough to refresh the balance out.

Other users are talking about this already in another thread too. When Blockchain.info goes down, the wallets don't usually reflect the correct balances. It is kind of weird that they have not even acknowledged that there is a problem yet, usually they are quick to do so...

If you're worried check your address on another blockchain to see if your funds are still there.

This is not the first time that something is happening like this. The last time, they restored the site in less than 12 hours. So we probably don't have anything to worry right now.

if your scared, this reveals many things:
1) your relying on an online service for something that causes you emotional distress if lost
2) your relying on an third party for something that causes you emotional distress if lost
3) you cannot be arsed to double check your balance using a different option
i think its time you reviewed your lapse in security. and get a proper bitcoin wallet program....
if anyone else is getting worried about blockchain.info balance issues. then you too should realise that you have obviously more than 'disposable' income stored in a online third party service. and then do something about it

Less than 12 hours? Great... Imagine GMail down for 4 hours...  |

Not sure why you're having trouble but it has worked for me since I started using bitcoin at the end of 2010.

It's not only about personal wallets, it's about businesses using blockchain.info API. But you are right, it's definitely time to switch to other platform. |

Have a look at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=605737 (my project to develop a new blockchain explorer. See http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/279ssy/dont_panic_blockchaininfo_is_not_connected_to_the/ for more info about the Blockchain.info situation. |

Thanks for all your replies, i checked the blockchain using other services and the funds are safe..
i also have backed up the private key of blockchain.info wallet, so i think i have done my part as a responsible non technical person,
But i was scared because , what if they had lost all private keys and someone had sweeped them all...that is a concern

Less than 12 hours? Great... Imagine GMail down for 4 hours... Be reasonable. Blockchain is a free service, and they are facing a funds crunch lately. There is a shortage of support and admin staff, and that delays any restoration work. |

There is a shortage of support and admin staff, and that delays any restoration work. +1 if anyone is relying on blockchain.info and is getting emotional. ask yourself this: 1. have you donated anything to them, because you rely on them soo much you want to ensure they continue to be reliable? 2. why havnt you donated to them you tight fisted bastards ( joe, i love you all really ) 3. why not use another wallet service as backup. you do realise that you can dump privkeys into any wallet and be able to continue as you were. you are not locked into blockchain.info. 4. if you are a business just using blockchain.info. why are you not also using API's of other explorers, as a double checker. |

The last time i checked, i did not donate anything to facebook and google too...i think blockchain.info should go public and get some wall street money |

Whenever Blockchain.info wallet is having problems, I do not login at all. I use more than one blockexplorer to check the balance of my address and the coins are always untouched. Why don't I login? You may ask. I am a bit paranoid about Blockchain.info being hacked and by logging in, I will disclose my password to the hackers  |
