How to fix Gbgplc not working

GBG is an identity and fraud prevention company. It provides identity verification, address lookup and fraud and compliance checks that businesses use when they onboard customers. Find your symptom below. Most problems come from a sign-in, a document or detail that does not match, a check that has not finished, or the platform itself. Only use the verification link you were sent, and never share identity documents or account numbers in a support message.

Jump to what you are seeing

Website Down

The GBG website does not load for you.

  1. Open the page in a private window and on another network.
  2. Check www.gbgstatus.com for an active incident.
  3. If only your network is affected, ask IT to check the firewall.

API Issues

Calls to the GBG API fail or return an error.

  1. Check the status code. An access error usually means the key is wrong, too many calls means you should slow down, and a server error means a service-side problem.
  2. Confirm the key is for the right account and environment.
  3. Retry with a growing delay, and check www.gbgstatus.com if several calls fail together.

Login Failed

Sign-in is refused.

  1. If the message says the password is wrong, reset it through the official route and check spam.
  2. Check you are using the account your organisation set up.
  3. Try a private window to rule out an old session.

Verification Failed

An identity check is refused, or it does not finish.

  1. Check the details you entered match your official document exactly.
  2. Retake any document photo in good light, with the whole document in view.
  3. Contact the business that asked you to verify, and ask what other option they offer.

Slow Response

Checks take a long time to return a result.

  1. Check your connection, and try again on a stable network.
  2. Check www.gbgstatus.com, and try again at a quieter time.
  3. If it stays slow, the business can send the time to GBG support.

Dashboard Error

The dashboard shows an error, or it does not show results.

  1. Reload in a private window, and check the date range and filters.
  2. Check your role can see the checks you are looking at.
  3. Check www.gbgstatus.com, and send the dashboard name and the time to your administrator.

Still not working?

Contact the business that asked you to verify first, since they can see your case and offer other options. For a problem with your organisation's account, contact your GBG account contact. For a platform-wide problem, use the help option on the GBG website. Have the business name, the check or case reference, the device and browser, the exact error text, and the time with your time zone. Never send identity documents, account numbers or passwords in a support message. Live incident updates are on www.gbgstatus.com.

Most verification problems come from a detail that does not match, a photo that is unclear or a check that is still running, and they usually clear once that step is repeated correctly. The status page shows live incidents, so you can see whether the problem is on GBG's side.
