Facebook down for some in US and Europe leaving users unable to post or log in

Outages on the social media site began early Thursday morning.

Some Facebook users in the U.S. and Europe experienced issues with the social media platform Thursday, with many reporting troubles logging in to their accounts.

When trying to access their accounts, many users were met with messages reading, “Sorry, something went wrong. We’re working on getting this fixed as soon as we can.”

The problems went beyond simply logging in, with some users reporting being unable to access Messenger or business pages as well.

Trouble with the social media platform began to be reported around 3:45 a.m. and were ongoing as of 8:30 a.m. EST, according to Downdetector, a website that tracks outages. The website said that 57 percent of the outage reports originated from the app, while 18 percent were related to the website. Twenty-five percent of the reported issues were related to logging into users’ accounts, according to the tracker.

Downdetector’s map showed the problems were largely persistent near cities, including New York, Chicago, Washington, D.C., and Tampa, though problems had been reported elsewhere, too. Some users in Europe were also posting about difficulty in reaching the site.

Meanwhile, Meta's status page showed "no known issues" for Facebook at the time of the reported outage.

Some fed-up Facebook users took to X to complain of the platform’s issues.

“Brilliant can’t log into Facebook must be down anyone else having the same issues??” one user from England wrote, later adding,” Cheers guys I thought I was hacked.”

Others chimed saying they “ran” to X to see if others were also experiencing issues.

Facebook and Meta have not yet addressed the reported problems.
