Many were unable to log into VNeID Thursday evening after the government announced a VND100,000 (US$3.9) gift for every citizen through the digital ID app to mark National Day.\t<\/p>\n

From 9 p.m. users reported seeing an error message saying “System under maintenance. Please try again later” when clicking on the app.<\/p>\n

Some said after logging in with their password or face, it simply froze.<\/p>\n

“My family has five members, and we tried to log into our accounts on five devices, but none of them worked,” Minh Hai of Dai Mo Ward in Hanoi said.<\/p>\n

On Friday morning users could log into the app again, but when entering the passcode under the Social Security section, a message saying “failed to connect to system” appeared.<\/p>\n

The last time VNeID experienced large-scale login failures was on June 30, when many people tried to check updates on hometown registration following the reorganization of provinces and cities<\/a>.<\/p>\n

On Thursday Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh issued a directive stating that the Politburo had approved a gift of VND100,000 in cash to all Vietnamese citizens to mark the 80th anniversary<\/a> of the August Revolution and National Day, Sept. 2.<\/p>\n

The Ministry of Finance and other relevant agencies have been tasked with arranging funding to distribute the money before Aug. 29.<\/p>\n

Citizens are required to have a VNeID level-2 account and a bank account linked with the Social Security benefits section on the app to receive it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"By Tuan Hung\u00a0 &nbspAugust 29, 2025 | 12:40 am PT Many were unable to log into VNeID Thursday…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":120420,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[165,77365,74],"class_list":{"0":"post-120419","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mobile","8":"tag-mobile","9":"tag-national-id-app-crashes-after-announcement-of-cash-gift-to-all-citizens-vnexpress-international","10":"tag-technology"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/120419","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=120419"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/120419\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/120420"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=120419"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=120419"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=120419"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
