No, works fine, but whilst checking for you I accidentally clicked on "Book" using the app and it says my device is set to a region that the United app's (sic) booking feature does not support. I am in the UK. Very odd, to me at least.

I typically use Google flights to find my itinerary, I then use the book with United button. It then propagate the reservation, and when you press the continue bar the United site asks for your mileage plus number and password. Once I enter the information for some reason during the last week or so when I enter my mileage plus account number and password I can’t login to my account when starting with Google flights??Any thoughts??

Update: I figured it out, I had cleared my cookies and website information last week on my mobile phone and when I try to log into the United site outside of the pass-through from google it said it didn’t recognize my device. I answer the security questions and things are working properly now

I contacted United about this and got a non-answer.

"Thank you for contacting United.com Web Support. I apologize for not able to access, although when we access your account it shows your status, if you have further inquiries status please contact MileagePlus Service Center directly at 800-421-4655.


Thank you for using united.com.

"

With a screen shot of their internal view of my status... So it's obvious now that is't a bug on their backend which is causing this to occur for some users.

Not sure what to do or who to complain to as I'm only a lowly silver. Maybe a 1k or GS who has the issue could escalate better.

mystatus.united.com was not displaying Chase spend a few days ago, so that may have been the reason it was down -- but is working now for me and Chase spend is back.

Let us (me) know if they fix it for you and what steps they went through so I can go ahead and get it done on my end as well. Thanks for contacting them.

I've had the same trouble with mystatus.united.com for three weeks now -- across different devices and browsers. It always seems to successfully login, before triggering a redirect to "down for maintenance."

Is this some sort of .bomb anniversary celebration?

FWIW I checked today and mystatus.united.com is working again for me. I didn't bother anyone about it so not sure why it's fixed now, but suggest to try again.
