Page is saying they're having technical problems, but all distribution centers are receiving/sending discs.

Update: Netflix spokesperson Steve Swasey on the outtage: "It's unanticipated and our engineers are working feverishly on it. We regret the inconvenience and appreciate the patience of our members."


Wonder how many death threats they'll receive this time around?

I sent one back on Thursday expecting it to be received Friday like normal but it's now Monday and still not received.
Website being down doesn't help
I'm glad I'm using redbox on my non blu-ray titles.

Exact same thing here. Turned in two on Thursday and they're still not recieved. I realized this morning that I hadn't put the Mist in my queue, but I guess I'll be missing out on that now.

Site seems to be back up. They didn't ship me anything today though. My queue says my three DVDs are "shipping Tuesday."

Exact same thing here. This totally f**ks my sh!t up.
I would call and complain but I don't wanna be a dick so I'll just take it I guess. This makes me sad though. Espescially after having been screwed by not having anything ship on Friday like it should have anyways but noooooooooo, it was "good Friday" or whatever that that even means so I get screwed again.

I got the "shipping Tuesday" as well. Thankfully, it was only one title. My other returns should be arriving tomorrow.

This sucky,sucky...I, too, returned 4 on Friday and 1 on Saturday only to have three shipped on Tuesday...I simply don't understand why these sites have these major problems so frequently? Don't they do weekly maint? This isn't rocket science...or is it?

Apparently Netflix wanted to save a few hundred thousand dollars by not shipping movies on Monday

Mine also says shipping Tuesday...at least it is a Blu-Ray. Still annoying though.

I'm about to call too. I got the same broken disc in the mail twice in a row, now waiting for the third. And they waited until today to ship also. Over a week of rentals gone just to get one damn movie!

Well, I had a movie returned this morning...and now they say my next movie will ship tomorrow! Two days in a row with shipping delays. I may have to give them a call to see what I can get from them. Blockbuster has been better before this. Maybe when BB starts offering online streaming for all I will switch back.

I called - apparently their system was down yesterday, so they shipped nothing. The girl said everyone would be getting 5% off their next bill because of it.

She also told me tough shit that I've gotten two broken discs in a row.
