I've heard from several of you that payment systems are causing major disruption at supermarkets and fuel stations.

This petrol station at Wodonga, on the Victorian-NSW border, has closed.

All flights from several major US airlines – including Delta, United and American Airlines – were grounded Friday morning due to a communication issue, according to the Federal Aviation Administration.

The ground stop impacts all flights from the airlines, regardless of their destination, said the FAA.

It’s unclear how long the ground stop will last, though the FAA suggested an update would be available by 5 a.m. ET.

massive Microsoft outage

Their grounding comes after a significant Microsoft outage brought Frontier Airlines to a standstill for hours on Thursday – though the ground stop for those airlines has since been lifted.

Earlier Thursday, Frontier said its systems had been impacted by the outage, and offered refunds to inconvenienced passengers.

Not really Microsoft but a third party software which runs on some systems. I reckon that company, CrowdStrike, will be hit hard.

Check this out - same with all Coles sites that I chose:

https://www.coles.com.au/find-stores/coles-express/vic/south-yarra-6764

We're having some technical issues.

We are affected by a global technical issue which is disrupting some of our systems in our supermarkets and liquor stores. We are working quickly to get our systems back to normal and will provide further updates as we know more.

If you need help now, call us on 1800 455 400.
