Netflix down: latest updates as service slowly comes back online
Netflix is still down for some
Is Netflix down? The streaming service appears to have suffered some intermittent outages on October 18, with issues persisting into the following day.
It appeared to be happening across all regions, with our UK and US staff noting a problem. We saw sporadic functionality for the site across the globe, with the Netflix website and app at times failing to load and other times simply loading very slowly.
The outages appear to be recovering, with the Netflix site now live and functioning for most across browsers, smart TV apps, iOS and Android – though at least a handful of users are experiencing a separate issue on their Android phones.
