Battle net checking version forever

I try to connect to battle net and it loads on checking version then it goes to Battle net is not responding. I submitted a ban appeal. Any ideas how to fix this.

Try again in 15 minutes. Lots of people are having issues. I was unable to connect for 45 minutes but now I can suddenly. My friend was unable to connect for 30 minutes.

Ok but it has gone from last night about 8 hours

i’m in the same boat, happened about 20 hours ago and still receiving same message

+1 with this, its like i bought a new game then cant join anything… Checking version and keep checking, then say you bnet is not response.
Best is even blizzard team doesnt even care about us like this

Same issue all day long.
