My transaction sending a small amount of cash to a personal friend in Australia exited my account just fine, but failed to materialize in theirs today.

I wonder if it's affecting specifically Australia, because they were unable to open their own new account today for some kind of rate limiting or velocity timeout.

Like if Wise have some microservice or compliance API calls failing for Australia markets specifically, that could explain these three failings that you'd expect headlines talking about a countrywide outage affecting that significant of a market.
