  2. Try the service on another device or switch between WiFi and mobile data, if available. If other sites also fail, check your internet provider.

Questions

Is Octotel down, or is it just me?

The Octotel status page reports no problem. This does not rule out problems with sign-in, payments, an app or a local network. Check the community reports above and report your experience.

How do we know?

We read the official Octotel status page. People can also report problems here. Their reports appear separately and may reveal issues before a provider update.

How often do we check?

The status page every 15 minutes, day and night. We keep 90 days of history: a day we have no reading for shows as "no data yet", never as working.
