Amazon, We're Sorry But...

[pastafreak]

...there was an internal error in our system. We logged the problem and will investigate it later. Our apologies for the inconvenience.

I've tried completing an order several times, and have repeatedly gotten this message.
Is Amazon down?

I've just placed an order about 20min ago with no problem.

I tried 3 or 4 more times on my tablet...no joy. Just placed the order via my phone...easy peasy. No idea why the problem on the tablet.

No big deal, pasta.

Just don't keep using the tablets, monitor the situation on your phone.

I'm getting messages that my payment method needs updating. Phoned them up and everything is fine. Basically, they said ignore! Perhaps their systems are in a total mess. ( I had another similar problem 2 weeks ago and had an email about it but that was an error too)

I ordered a lot of things yesterday that went through fine. Perhaps I clogged the system ;0)

After using my phone, if was ok on my tablet.
I noticed that things stalled on my tablet at the payment stage...the box to click on was a pale pink. That's not usual. I bet the system was overwhelmed by the burden of so many shopping.

Talk about blogging the system. I used my card in town a few times yesterday...as I often do especially now.
Final shop card declined...apparently if used more than 3 times, pin is required. I started to type it in...mind went BLANK! Very BLANK! I couldn't for the life of me remember it...numbers were running through my head as I went to the atm. Thankfully it came back to me...but oh, the embarrassment!

[pastafreak]

Err...*clogging* the system.

That happens to me Pasta. (Quite a lot these days). And if I phone the bank and they ask for my security code!!

I once went to the cash dispenser and instead of just typing in my number, for some reason I thought "What's my number?" and couldn't mind on it.

It took a couple of days of my trying not to think on it before it come back to me.

The more you try to think of something, the worse it gets. And then but suddenly comes to you hours or days later for apparent reason when it's no use to you!
