Scottish Census on Ancestry

Is anyone else having problems with Ancestry this morning? It just appears to be with Scottish census records. I've typed in a name plus 1850 as a birth date and only received about 8 records covering 1851 and 1861 census. Tried 1840 as a birth and received records for 1841 and 1851 but again only about 10.

Please tell me it's not just me.

It's not just you. I can't get any info on the 1871 or 1851 it just says insuffient data provided ( or words to that effect) even when I have filled in every box there is. It was like this last night for the 1871 although I didn't try the 1861 census. It's so annoying.
