Investigating
We are currently investigating a major service disruption impacting the availability of our support channels. The issue is related to a widespread outage with AWS US-East-1 (Amazon Web Services), which is affecting key Internet services globally. Customers may experience difficulty reaching Lightspeed support via phone and chat. We are monitoring the external provider and actively working to restore connectivity as quickly as possible.
Workaround: Email Support is operational. If you require assistance, please send an email to the support team of the specific Lightspeed product you are using, which can be accessed at www.lightspeedhq.com/support
