Hey guys - tried to access a few online vape stores - looks like Sir Vape, Vape Cartel, SAVapegear and Atomix are all down? Vape King & Lung Candy are online. Haven't tried anyone else yet.
@SAVapeGear @BigGuy @KieranD - any idea what the issue might be?
 
I can get to them, All up this side. Might be an ISP issue?

It's quite strange. I've tried a few other vape stores since my post - most are working fine for me. VapeClub though also giving the same problem - just doesn't load and eventually says it can't connect to server. I'll try a re-start and reset (I'm on a telkom LTE line, normally quite fast and stable)
 
There was some maintenance on shopify. But the sites are back up.
 
Just tested them all and they are all operational.
 
I can also confirm connection time out problems on Sir Vape and Vape Cartel sites. I`m on Telkom Mobile LTE as well so maybe an ISP problem. Lucky I put in my order earlier.

*Edit switched to Vodacom Mobile now and those sites work. It`s a Tellkom ISP problem.
 
Hmm :confused:
I've reset my router and restarted the laptop - still down for me. On Safari and Chrome (on a mac). It says that the server where the page is located is not responding.
I'll give it some time and try again a little later
 
Ok so it looks like Telkom, and maybe just LTE lines. Hopefully it gets sorted soon. I'll report back
 
Must be an ISP thing, I'm on afrihost and browsing the various sites, not a single hiccup

@Blu_Marlin if you get a chance to test your Telkom LTE line again, please let me know if you can access SV or VC. If I tether using my iPhone (MTN) I have no problems, but still no joy on LTE

@KB_314 I just tried via Telkom LTE now. There is still a problem reaching those websites via Telkom LTE. It seems that the problem is also affecting Telkom sites as well. I can not check my LTE balance nor go to the Telkom website via my Telkom LTE but I can access those website with my Vodacom connection.
 
Yep - same with Sir Vape & Vape Cartel. Still no signs of life.

My better half "logged a fault" - but we all know what that means when Telkom is involved.

It's been this way since Friday evening - at least, that's when I noticed it for the first time.
 
Telkom Fibre - No issues with ANY of the above mentioned web sites. I can browse them perfectly...
 
Im using telkom mobile but seems its working now after 4 days
