EDIT Monday 17 November: We're back to usual programming!
Original Post:
Heads up, Solmates: the Australian Government's ABN Lookup service is clocking off for a bit of scheduled maintenance from Friday 14 November 9:00 PM to Monday 17 November 8:00 AM (AEST).
That means any Solo feature that checks or verifies your ABN might not play nice during that window. While applying for Tap to Pay, for example, you could run into this misleading error message:
“ABN not found. Check that the ABN was entered correctly and try again.”
So before you spend time triple-checking your typing and spiral into existential doubt, just know that it’s not you, it’s them. If your ABN’s valid and everything looks right, sit tight and try again once the ABN Lookup service is back online.
In the meantime, feel free to visit the official page here for the outage announcement:
We’ll let you know if anything changes, but otherwise, things should be back to normal after Monday at 8am (AEDT).
