Happened several times today, constant Server issues, I had an 8.2pt advantage over my opponent in one game, it disconnected and for some reason I was the one given the loss, I have fibre optic broadband and my laptop is wired to it, it's literally an unbreakable connection, I never get disconneted from any other site bar this one. Yet I've seen reps from chess.com addressing the issue before and declaring, it's not us, it's a YOU problem, no it's not it really is you. Getter better tech guys. This was the game, how unfair is this https://www.chess.com/game/live/64524094905

 

There were some issues today.

Contact support directly and they should be able to refund points.

Not too long ago today, I was playing a bullet game, and I had a good position, but this same error occured and I couldn't finish the game. I want a rating points refund.

If the loss was due to server errors, you can contact support and they should be able to refund lost rating if the timing coincided with an outage.

Looks like this post has been active for 3 years now, chess.com is not doing anything about it. I request everyone to ask for diamond membership refunds

Constant Server errors, luckily my payment stops the 22, and then only Lichess...A chess-site that cares about players not about money.

It's been happening a lot, it seems the servers are wildly unstable and bad.

It's primarily very high loads and staff are working on optimizations and capacity.
