What usually helps when DeepSeek fails for you while it works for others.
Check chat.deepseek.com from our serverGuides
“The server is busy. Please try again later.”
DeepSeek shows this when demand is higher than it can serve. Wait a few minutes and try again, preferably outside peak hours in China and Europe.
Can’t sign up or the code doesn’t arrive
Check spam, or sign up with another method. DeepSeek has paused new sign-ups for a while before, during attacks on its service.
API requests are slow or fail
Retry with backoff and give the client a generous timeout. Errors on every request at once usually mean a wider problem.
