And, you are correct. They were down. Lasted a couple of hours then
started working again. Received the same error directly on their web
interface when I tried to void a $1.00 Auth-Only card verification
charge from earlier in the day.
But, my question, a bit more clearly worded, was:
Are these errors logged somewhere for immediate review (so I can re-read
the exact wording of the error) since they are unavailable after leaving
the error page?
Jason answered that question.
