ChatGPT Not Working for You? It Might Not Be an Outage
If the status above shows no ongoing outage but ChatGPT isn't loading for you, the problem is likely on your side or with your internet provider.
Common Reasons ChatGPT Stops Working
- OpenAI infrastructure outage affecting ChatGPT, the API, or both independently
- High demand during peak hours causing response delays or connection timeouts
- ChatGPT Plus or API account payment issue blocking access
- Browser extension or VPN causing authentication failures
- ChatGPT Plus subscribers and free users are served by different server pools
How to Fix ChatGPT Not Working
- Check the status above and status.openai.com for current incidents
- Try chat.openai.com in a different browser or incognito mode
- If you see "ChatGPT is at capacity", the free tier is overloaded — try again during off-peak hours or upgrade to Plus
- Log out and log back in to refresh your session token
- Disable browser extensions, especially VPNs or privacy tools that may block OpenAI's auth
- Check your OpenAI account billing and usage limits at platform.openai.com/account/billing
