Club Penguin Domain Expiry?
Posted by Luckylarry on June 20, 2011 under GlitchesWhile I was logging in to my account on Club Penguin today, there was a different page instead of the normal log-in page! This is the normal URL when logging into your Club Penguin account.
This is the page that was visible at that particular URL:
It looks like Club Penguin’s domain has expired! What do you think about this? Did you catch this phenomenon? – Are you frustrated by this as it’s been happening all day?
UPDATE: We’ve reached out to Club Penguin for comment, and they said:
This issue is affecting a number of Penguins and we’re working hard to get it fixed as soon as possible. With the help of our technical team the Island should be back afloat in no time.
UPDATE: Club Penguin says:
Unfortunately we have been experiencing some technical issues, but rest assured we have our technical team working hard to fix this.
UPDATE: Club Penguin has fixed this bug for users in certain geographic regions.
UPDATE: Our friend Frogger 13 contacted Club Penguin, and was emailed the following response. You may be able to get one week of free membership if you contact them!
Our website was currently undergoing some issues and our tech team was informed immediately. They worked hard on getting it solved as soon as possible. This has now been resolved but may take some time to repair in all areas.
Please clear your web browser cache and try and login again. I have, this one time only, added 1 additional week of membership time to your account in lieu of the time that the site was not available today. We are sorry for any confusion this may have caused. We greatly appreciate your patience at this time and we hope to have your penguin waddling around our icy island once again.
UPDATE: Club Penguin is also giving 10,000 coins in the gift! – #UPDATE2: This will depend on the case at the certain time, some people will just receive a 1 week membership.
UPDATE: Club Penguin Support Phoneline has confirmed by call that the domain had expired and it was a “bit” to late of re-newing it so that was the problem with all the ads had come on (the scary clown and the tennis player) they confirmed that Club Penguin.com EXPIRED and was waiting for re-new/update it. The domain right now is back to them and they are currently fixing it world wide for everyone.
UPDATE 21/6: It has been over 24 hrs since this event of the domain expired and a majority of people including some of us at Club Penguin CC can’t login to Club Penguin or even visit it.

it has happen to me to and i hate it and i hope all the membership is still there
i yesterday only changed the chat mode to standard chat mode for taking to my friends i thought it only i my computer but i saw in the google
It does look like they lost a dispute over the domain name last year . . . but yes, AMAZING that a disney company can display such incompetence to let the domain name expire, or to not be allowed to renew and not have developed a back-up plan (like move it inside the disney domain).
Yes, a child in my house is trying to understand the fact that someone other than club penguin or disney OWNS the site where he used to play his games. Sigh.
how many day would it take
because membership my is going expire on july
This is SO crazy!i was TOTALLY freaked out!hope they fix it soon.
Someone may of hacked the website by chance. But I emailed clubpenguin support and they emailed back immediantly. They allways normally respond the next day. They said it was there end of the line. So they said not to push any links, put to saty put and wait ti’ll it comes back on.
