“I work Service Desk and EVERYBODY and their mother was coming up and yelling at us, like SORRY ITS BEYOND USSS we told everyone cash only, shut the doors, and filled up carts with cold stuff that was still good to run back.” DownDetector, a site that monitors outages, noted that on July 7th, an abnormally high number of people claimed to be having issues with digital payments and processing at the store. At the time, Walmart declined to comment, though the company’s website presented a standard “We’re having technical issues, but we’ll be back in a flash” message whenever a customer tried to search for an item.
