Try again it was running slow for 10 mins, appears to be fine now. ---

Try again now - 4pm on a day towards the end of a month is always a bad time to try - a lot of people are claiming salaries early and the Monzo servers are smoking 🖥 🔥 ---

Being unable to cope with a predictable demand increase isn’t what I’d expect from an agile fintech bank. ---

To be totally accurate, my experience was: I claimed an incoming payment early at 4:05pm. There was no sound at first (the usual incoming receipt notification sound) so I checked the feed. The overall balance showed the payment was now in our account, but the feed still showed the greyed-out entry. Out of curiosity, I tried to claim the payment again, but it said there was a problem (this is a correct result, given the circumstances - I’d already claimed it) It took about a minute for the feed to show the incoming receipt. So it seems to be a delayed processing issue with updating the feed entry, not the overall receipt of the credit into the account. ---

It did cause me a slight bit of anxiety whereby a 3 fig sum wasn’t showing up in the transaction feed for x2 Monzo users. I’ve never had any problems at 4pm before, I usually take the money and move it about no problem 🙄 ---

I thought that more nodes were just automatically spun up to cope with surges like this 🤔 ---

I think it’s probably a coincidence. I’ve not noticed complaints/problems at other 4PMs. [Previous page](https://community.monzo.com/t/monzo-servers-down/114196.md?page=1)
