Emergency Server Maintenance : RESOLVED

Emergency Server Maintenance

We have fixed the problem that caused this failure.
Although we have fixed the problem and brought back the system to the stable state, there are some parts of data that we could not extract from the backup.
- Some users in FREE PLAN that registered during June 6th to June 14th will need to re-register again otherwise you will not be able to sign in. Paid members are not affected by this.
- Some snipe data that were scheduled earlier (during June 6th to June 14th) will not be shown in the "Ended Auction" section. If you need this data, please email us again. We will see if the extracted data does not corrupt the current data.
- Paid members who are affected by this incident will receive a refund or credit.
PayPal - will receive a refund in the next 7-14 days.
Credit card - will receive another free month of service (due to high credit card processing fee).

Customers who emailed us in the past 48 hours and have not received any response back, please stay put. We are speeding up to answer all of your emails.

In the past 48 hours, we have been working hard to fix the problem and would like to thank you for your understanding. We apologize for the inconvenience that may have caused.
