According to OnlyFans’ server status, the website and app is up and running.

However, users say otherwise.

Is OnlyFans down?

The OnlyFans website appears to be down for the UK, Europe and some parts of the US and Australia.

Although the company has not reported any official outages.

One user wrote on Twitter: “Your site has been down across most of the UK and Europe for about eight hours now.

“Any chance of fixing it or at least letting us know how long?”

Another wrote: “UK OnlyFans has been down all night and your yet to acknowledge this or make a public statement?”

While a creator tweeted: “Howwwwww is only fans still down?

“Us creators have stuff to do! and genuinely lovely chats in the DMS to respond to!”

How can I check if OnlyFans is not working?

Visit the OnlyFans website on a smartphone or computer to check if it is working for you.

Users are simply met with the OnlyFans logo when trying to access to site on 22 June 2023.

Twitter also tends to erupt with people complaining of outages when the network is down – so check out the social media platform for complaints in near real-time.

The website’s official social media profiles are also expected to release a statement if the outage is likely to last an extended period of time.

However, this has not happened as of yet, and OnlyFans’ customer support Twitter account hasn’t posted since 2020.

There is also a section on the OnlyFans website which details if problems are being investigated and is updated once they are resolved.

This could be down to maintenance or the server simply being overloaded, for example.

But also be sure to run through this checklist, to ensure the problem isn’t on your end:

• Make sure your Wi-Fi connection is strong
• Clear your cache and cookies on your PC
• Try opening the app in a different browser

When have there been OnlyFans outages before?

OnlyFans has crashed on numerous occasions, much to the frustration of its users.

Outages were also reported on August 5, July 29, 30 and 31, 2021, with more people moaning they couldn’t upload videos.

Before that, there were “glitches” on July 1, things weren’t loading at the end of June, and content was streaming “like dial up” in May.

Official maintenance was carried out on June 28 but the issue was swiftly fully recovered and verified as resolved.

“Partial degradation” of the website’s functionality was reported on May 14, with the site down for just over an hour.

Banking page maintenance was completed on April 4, along with several other investigations in early 2021.

The website was plagued with issues in November 2020, with two major outages lasting one hour and 15 minutes respectively.
