PayPal Issue Today

They apparently upgraded something today and that went sideways for "some customers", me being one of them. So basically it looks like a transaction is all good, the websites are happy and say they are all good. But you never get a confirmation email from the website you are purchasing from and the transaction doesn't appear in your PayPal account.

However, you DO get an email from PayPal with a transaction ID, etc. That seems to show up fine, for a couple of hours, and then the link is dead. Talk about confusing... did it work, or not?

They are apparently aware of the issue and basically just told me to hurry up and wait, and that the transactions will eventually go through (hopefully within 24 hours).

So, just a heads up to anyone fielding PayPal issues today from their customers, this could be the issue.
