The number of reported outages for the app and website is currently at more than 500, according to Downdetector.

Around 25% of problems are about the app, 41% are about the website, and 34% are due to people being unable to log in.

It means those who rely on the website might not be able to process a new delivery or check the status of a current one.

Many shoppers rely on their app to get discounts on products in-store, rather than carrying a physical card.
