Went to a Subway at ~7:15 this evening in a Columbus, Ohio suburb and the cashier said the whole Subway system (no pun intended) in Columbus was out since 3pm. Paid cash for a foot-long.
Place was empty. Must be a lot of hungry credit card holders out there tonight.

Hard to believe that all the computers are down. Are they sure it isn’t the network?

Looks like several people on Twitter are having the same problem.

I’m on a Verizon wireless card right now near Albany NY. No problem.
To: Upstate NY Guy
It’s not phone service. It’s the computers in the stores and offices. Like they can’t pull up any account info on their computers or make sales, etc.

On a related note...I think I was shorted in french fries today with my Culver’s Double Butterburger Basket. I’d write the company, but I just don’t care that much.

All the salesperson said was they don’t know what’s causing the problem. He said he’s call when they got back up. Still hasn’t called so they’ve been out since 3:00 ET until now (8:40 ET).
They put up a “closed” sign up on the door. They close for real at 9 ET.

OK, thanks. Sounds like their database servers have crashed.
To: Brandonmark
Perhaps just a coincidence...yeah, right.

Ok, I’ll bite.
I should care that some chain store’s computers are down, why?

It might be of interest if it’s an incidence of hacking.
