Incident history

Every platform incident, including the ones nobody outside the Office noticed. Records are kept indefinitely.

  1. Delayed text message delivery on Commonwealth Notify

    INC-2026-031

    Started · Resolved

    Affected: Commonwealth Notify

    1. We are investigating reports of text messages taking longer than usual to arrive. Email and letters are unaffected.

    2. The delay is caused by a queue backlog at one of our two delivery suppliers. Messages are being delivered, but up to 40 minutes late.

    3. We have moved traffic to our second supplier. The backlog is clearing and new messages are being delivered normally.

    4. All queued messages have been delivered. No message was lost. We are reviewing why automatic failover did not trigger.

  2. Commonwealth Pay unavailable for 41 minutes

    INC-2026-024

    Started · Resolved

    Affected: Commonwealth Pay

    1. Payments are failing across all services. We are investigating.

    2. A configuration change to the payment routing layer was deployed with an incorrect certificate reference. We are rolling it back.

    3. The rollback is complete and payments are succeeding. Around 3,100 payment attempts failed during the incident and were not charged. People affected were asked to try again.

  3. Slow sign-in on Commonwealth ID

    INC-2026-011

    Started · Resolved

    Affected: Commonwealth ID

    1. Sign-in is taking longer than usual. People are able to sign in, but some requests are timing out and need retrying.

    2. The cause is an undersized connection pool following Friday's release. We are increasing capacity.

    3. Sign-in times are back to normal. Median sign-in is 1.2 seconds.
