White did capture en-passant, and you ran out of time.

Probably your connection.
it's happen again lol http://www.chess.com/livechess/game?id=2160995892
It happen also to me in many of my games in chess.com.. I'm no beginner and rating around 1700-1800 in real fide tournament so i do understand what is en passant. I also have programmer background so i recommend chess.com do real application testing to solved this bugs. I used mobile android lenovo p70.
That is because of the poor wifi connection
It happened to me before
Just go to settings and turn off the wifi and on again

If it becaouse poor wifi connection then we cannot do any move. It is only en passant that cannot move. If i move other pieces it works
is anyone else having this problem??

I've never had this problem, but I don't play chess on my phone. Did it happen on your phone?
I do not know the link of the game, but this week I played one game that I could not did the en passant. It was a situation similar with the one that you described, at the moment I thought that I could be doing something wrong but now I see that probably is a problem with the software.

yes it is, and I've figured it out that it's usually happened when I play 1 minute game with very fast movement. I think it's technical issues.

I just played a game where it happened to me. It’s a pretty crucial bug to not allow strategized and calculated moves. Completely changes game outcomes. Please fix this, chess.com.

Which game and move? I've never seen en passant fail to work when it was possible. I have seen people not understand how exactly it works though.
Happened to me several times in offline mide vs a computer. Probably a mobile application bug. I have a lg velvet. It worked on my old samsung a5.
do drag and drop and try
It doesn't prove anything. Millions of games are played on the site every day and the number of games that have one or more en passant postions are likely in the tens of thousands, if not more.
While I can't discount that you are having an issue, it isn't one that is impacting the vast majority of members or games.
