According to DLP Report on Twitter, the credit card and bank systems went down at Disneyland Paris today, which forced Guests to get cash prior to entering the Park. The interesting thing is that this is clearly a common reoccurrence as DLP Report writes:
The credit/bank card network is down – a Disneyland Paris tradition!
Make sure to get cash outside the parks if you are entering.

The good news is that the system is now working, however, as many have stated, this is not common at Disneyland Paris and, therefore, it could go down again at any moment. As Ryan Curran said:
Who doesn’t come to dlp with at least some cash for cases like this especially when it’s known to happen.
