Troubleshooting

How to fix Companies House not working

Companies House is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:

Your browser tries to reach find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.

  1. Reload and restart

    Reload the page (Ctrl+F5, or Cmd+Shift+R on a Mac), or fully close the app and open it again.

  2. Try another connection

    Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data. If it works on one and not the other, the problem is your network, not Companies House.

  3. Update the app

    Install the latest version from the App Store or Google Play. Old versions can stop connecting after a server-side change.

Same time

Problems at the same time as Companies House

Since 28 October, Companies House's only spike in problem reports overlapped a spike at another service.

When several services get problem reports at once, something they share, such as a cloud host or a network, can be the real cause. Matching times alone do not prove it.

During the latest spike

How we track Companies House

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Companies House, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Companies House, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.

When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. Companies House doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
