The root cause of this problem was an invalid URL linked to a security certificate. To resolve this issue we replaced the URL with one possessing a valid and secure certificate. A buildup of processing jobs accumulated during this period and we immediately bolstered the capacity of our worker processes to clear the processing queue.
We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused.
We are currently experiencing system wide performance issues.
This is due to a backlog in our back end jobs processing. We are adding additional server capacity in order to clear the backlog and restore performance.
Additional server capacity resolved the issue
