X IS down as thousands report outages on the social media platform, formerly known as Twitter.
Thousands are left unable to message or post on the phenomenally popular platform.
Tech website Downdetector has announced: “User reports indicate problems at X.”
Since 9.25am today, complaints have skyrocketed with 10,883 reports of X outages on the website.
Downdector provides real-time updates about the performance of online services.
The site only reports an incident when the number of problem reports is significantly higher than usual.
Before 9am there were no reported issues with X.
Users have taken to Facebook to warn others that the platform is down, sharing their concerns.
One wrote: “Can’t access.”
Another added: “Yeah, what happened?”
A third ominously responded: “So it begins.”
Earlier this month Downdetector reported that more than 5,038 people encountered problems with Barclays.
Customers frantically reported that they were unable to log into their mobile banking app and internet banking services.
More than 50 per cent of the reported problems related to difficulties with mobile banking and the bank quickly scrambled to resolve the issue.
Thankfully Barclays said the outage was caused by a technical issue and was not related to a cyber attack or any malicious activity.
