GOV.UK NOT WORKING?

I have paid my NI to boost my state pension.  I manged to access Gov.Uk (pension) last Wednesday 29 March and printing out my new figures, which means they have taken my payment and updated my record.  Since then my wife has been trying to login to check hers as her payment was done the same day as mine and each time she tries gets this message:

Sorry, there is a problem with the service

This might be caused by a high number of people trying to use this service at the moment. Try again later.


For 5 days?


Anyone else having the same problem?


Thanks

    I've just tried and logged in with no problem.
    Googling on your question might have been both quicker and easier, if you're only after simple facts rather than opinions!

    I got that last night a few times and then got in.  I think the system is being overwhelmed.

    Tried my login and worked ok.  So tried hers and got as far as phone call with pin and got on,  however pension area was not available. Maybe it is because they are updating her record?
