Anyone else unable to access PSN Store?

Hey,

Had no issues with the store until today, when I discovered I couldn't access it at all. When I select the PSN Store icon in the PS3's main menu all I get is a notice saying something along the lines of:

"This service is unavailable in your region/country"

Any ideas what's going on?

Same here, never had problems but now that's showing up!

Got same issue. Was worried for a while because I have a Japanese PS3 and figured they were blocking imported machines going into the UK store, but it turns out loads of people are getting this message regardless. I'm guessing it will be fixed soon.

I tried accessing the store on my UK, US, HK, JP and KR accounts and ALL gave the same country/region error.

Same error message for me on my UK & USA accounts !!
I wanna spend some pennys too !

Same message here - maybe it's to do with them updating the store, & a wrong message is being shown by mistake.

I also can't access my account information under 'Account Management'.

***UPDATE*** All is working fine now

Yep i've got the same problem, with the same error message.

Can't access "account management" either, get a weird error code.

Glad it's not just me! Must be a psn issue, hopefully they'll fix it soon as i want to download the Uncharted 2 demo!

That's funny you should say that because today I also found the Uncharted 2 Beta wouldn't boot up for me. I've had no problems before trying to start up the demo but today all I got when I tried to start it was a notice saying something about the server being down or inaccessible or something. Uncharted 2 Beta and PSN Store not working on the same day? Coincidence?
