Incident Report

Summary AI Generated

BigCommerce's contact center experienced a 6.5-hour outage caused by a third-party service provider failure, rendering Phone, Chat, and Web case support unavailable. The BigCommerce Account Dashboard and Support Call Center were both affected, with customers facing complete loss of support access followed by intermittent errors as a regional fix was progressively rolled out. The incident was fully resolved once the service provider restored operations across all regions.

Our contact center is experiencing technical difficulties due to issues with our service provider. Phone, Chat, and Web cases are temporarily unavailable. We will resume operations as soon as possible.
