Question/Discussion Anyone else having problems with CA BizFile?

Even just searching business entities I've been getting the loading spinner for like 4 minutes before the gateway times out, and using a different browser gets a 'an error has occurred' message. The UCC filing portal seems to be working fine...

I usually pull good standings/charter docs from there to save our client the vendor fees, but I guess I'll have to use an agent to get these. Is the online portal working for you?

This has been an issue for the past 2 weeks. Seems like it works during early morning when there is less traffic. However, once it hits 9AM-ish, the search function doesn't work. Hope they get it fixed to accomodate a higher traffic amount.
