PayPal

Down tonight for 4 hours

[Birdman]

Just a heads-up.

PayPal:

The PayPal site will be taken down for maintenance tonight. The site will be unavailable from 11:00 PM to 3:00 AM Pacific Time. Thank you for your patience.

I wonder if it's tied to the regular ebay downtime on Fridays? This sounds like one major serious update:

During this time, the entire PayPal system will be unavailable. Members will not be able to log in to the PayPal website or make payments using PayPal through external payment buttons, including those on auction listings and other websites. The Help Center will also be unavailable, and no PayPal emails will be sent during this time.

nah this is a rarity, and it was actually yesterday not tonight when this happened...

I'd say they are 99.0% uptime at a minimum (99.9% = 9 hours a year downtime)

show me another service with only 2.9% fee, 38 countries and 99% uptime and I will switch :)
