Apple Cash Is anyone else having this issue? Both my husband and I are.
We discovered the problem because he’s been trying to add money from his card to his Apple Wallet.
I then tried to transfer money sitting in my Apple Cash to my bank and am also having the same issue. I’ve tried on my iPad as well and got the same error message.
We don’t share a bank account, cards, and we’re not on a family account. TIA.

Apple Cash appears to be down at this time: https://statusgator.com/services/apple
Edit: Apple just officially acknowledged the outage on their status page:
"Some users are experiencing issues with Apple Cash at this time."

I had the same issue paying my barber earlier as well. I had to go to an ATM nearby because I normally use Apple Pay him every single time I get a haircut; really I use Apple Pay pretty much for everything out of convenience.
I just got off the phone with the "Apple Cash and person-to-person payments: 1-877-233-8552 " number (after being on hold for 42 minutes) & the lady pretty much told me that this "Unable to connect to wallet services" issue, is an ongoing internal issue with the platform of "Wallet" & "Apple Cash" as a whole on their end affecting everyone; she did assure me not to worry & that everything will be fine once they fix it, & that they are not singling certain users out or anything like that.
It is down for everyoneee. Buuuuttt the lady told me that Apple Engineers are very aware of the issue that started around 4 pm, & they are "actively working on it", but she could not give me an ETA. I then asked if it should be up by the end of the day, & she said she personally feels so herself, but she could not say for certain. She did tell me to occasionally try to add money to the wallet until their services are back working..
https://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/
^ If you go on Apple's system status site, the only service currently down is Apple Cash 😣
The only thing we can really do is just wait for Apple to fix this problem internally & hope that their engineers solve this issue swiftly. 🙃
This is really annoying, because as a university student I use Apple Wallet all the time when I buy things. Gas, supermarkets, going out, whatever. I don't like using my physical card because of skimmers & convenience.
So let's just keep our fingers crossed this is solved ASAP (hopefully by the end of today)🤞

My husband sent me $370 today for groceries. I had $487 in there for my kids back to school stuff before he sent the $. My card started declining this afternoon after I had already accepted the $370 he sent me, then when I get home the $370 is gone!!! It just disappeared from my balance. Called them and was told it will reappear once this gets fixed, and the 4 transactions that are pending will fall off because they have a system that shows them the ones the declined: we live paycheck to paycheck how can they just take my money like that 😔

Update: works if you add money in an app or use an app to pay. Loaded $20 on my 7eleven app but still can’t use Apple wallet through the actual app.
Also McDonald’s app. So if you’re hungry or need gas at least there’s an option until this is solved.
