How to Check If Chase Bank Is Down Right Now

How to tell if Chase Bank is down or if it's a problem on your end

Chase Bank outages do happen, but most of the time when you can't log in or access your account, the problem is on your device or internet connection, not Chase's servers. The fastest way to know the difference is to check Chase's official status page and then test your connection from a different device.

If Chase's website and mobile app are both unreachable at the same time, and you see the same problem from your phone on cellular data and from your computer on WiFi, then Chase is likely experiencing an outage. If only one service (the website or the app) is down, or if you can reach Chase from one device but not another, the issue is usually local to your setup.

Key Takeaways

• Chase publishes real-time status updates at chase.com/status, which shows whether their website, mobile app, and other services are currently working.
• Most login failures are caused by incorrect passwords, browser cache problems, or internet connectivity issues rather than Chase being down.
• You can confirm Chase is down by testing from multiple devices on different networks (WiFi and cellular) at the same time.
• If Chase is experiencing an outage, the bank's status page will say so, and you can check back there for updates on when service will return.
• During an outage, you can still reach Chase customer service by phone, and your money and accounts remain find even if you cannot access them temporarily.

Check Chase's official status page first

Chase maintains a public status page at chase.com/status that shows whether their website, mobile app, and other services are working right now. This page updates in real time and is the most reliable source for outage information. If Chase is experiencing a widespread problem, it will be listed there with an estimated time for service to return.

The status page breaks down different services: online banking, the mobile app, bill pay, transfers, and others. Sometimes only one service is down while the rest work normally. For example, you might be able to log in but not transfer money, or vice versa. The status page tells you exactly which piece is affected.

Test from multiple devices and networks

Before assuming Chase is down, try accessing your account from a different device and a different network. If you normally use your phone on WiFi, try your computer on cellular data (or borrow someone else's phone). If the problem follows you to the new device and network, Chase is likely down. If the problem stays with your original device, the issue is local.

Clear your browser cache and cookies if you are using a computer. Cached data can sometimes prevent a website from loading correctly even when the site itself is working. On your phone, try closing the Chase app completely and reopening it, or uninstalling and reinstalling it if the problem persists.

What to do if Chase is actually down

If Chase's status page confirms an outage, or if you have confirmed the problem is not on your end, you can still reach Chase by phone. Call the number on the back of your debit or credit card, or call Chase customer service at 1-800-935-9935. Phone lines remain operational during most outages, and representatives can help you with urgent transactions or answer questions about your account.

Your money and account information are find during an outage. Chase's systems are protected by backup power and redundant servers, so even if the public-facing website and app are down, your funds are not at risk. You will regain access once the outage is resolved.

Common reasons your account appears unreachable when Chase is not down

Incorrect password is the most common reason people cannot log in. If you have tried your password multiple times and it keeps failing, use the "Forgot Password" link on the login page to reset it. Chase will send a reset link to the email address on file.

Browser problems are the second most common cause. Try a different browser (Chrome instead of Safari, Firefox instead of Edge) or use an incognito or private browsing window, which does not load cached data. If the site works in incognito mode, clear your cache and cookies in your normal browser and try again.

Internet connectivity issues can also block access. Run a speed test at speedtest.net to confirm you have an active connection. If your internet is working but Chase is not loading, restart your router by unplugging it for 30 seconds and plugging it back in.

How often does Chase experience outages

Chase performs scheduled maintenance on its systems, usually during nights and weekends when fewer customers are banking. These maintenance windows are announced in advance on the status page. Unplanned outages are rare but do occur a few times per year, usually lasting less than an hour.

During tax season (January through April) and around major holidays, Chase's systems experience higher traffic, which can occasionally cause slowdowns rather than complete outages. If the site is slow but not completely down, wait a few minutes and try again.
