Server Downtime

On Sunday afternoon March 11th, because of overwhelming weekend demand, Glo experienced a few hours of server downtime. These servers effected registration, upgrade requests, and user data synchronization. The issue was resolved for registration and upgrades, and now function properly.

Synchronization still remains offline as we repair the issue. It should be back up and running on Monday, 3/12. All other functions of Glo should be working properly at this time.

Thanks for your patience!
