[jtornone]

Its back for me now as well. Just wish they would have given me more than $1.32 and that i had to get from talking to a supervisor. the "customer service rep" was only going to give me .15

[patches152]

good lord, i never realized how many emails i get daily until they all come in at once! in the 4 hours that it's been down, i've gotten well over 150

[patches152]

sorry to everyone who emailed me with questions and i didn't respond. i'm usually pretty good at responding ASAP



because usually i forget if i dont

[scrubbybubbles]

Looks like i AM back up again.... that was weird though..

[rrudeboy]

Verizon just told me there was/is a RIM outage... which effects email & browser.

real, or BS ?

[rrudeboy]

I lost web and email for two hours. Atleast I was abaile to twitter. South west ohio up running

central Ohio... down.

[djstarion]

I was down for a while in Chicago. back up though

[chelleygirl]

A resend of the service books, shut down and a battery pull and I'm back up and running! Thanks to all for the posts..

[Oilersboy]

BIS was down for short time but now it is fine as ever

[MerlynNY]

Almost 10pm here and still down. Been down since about 7pm. Tried to resend service books, but no go. Hopefully this gets resolved soon....

[m3grady2]

[gkl]

down...back up...now down again in phoenix

It's amazing how secure these devices are and how they are known to be the best email devices out...

Yet we have to deal with the entire email dropping out a few times a month.

I've had a BB since February and had RIM drop BIS 2 to 3 times a month since February.

It's a huge letdown...

Perhaps if radio would top tripping over the patch cable in the NOC, all would be well.

Mine is down right now and im in Fort Worth, TX

[The_Semicolon]

I am still down. Anybody have info on when to expect this to change? I am new to the blackberry world. I've had it for two weeks. Is this really that common? I see people talking about it happening all the time. Is that just an exaggeration?

[wcfarr4015]

I know I'm up and running. Have been since yesterday. Maybe you should try resending service books and/or doing a battery pull.

This doesn't happen very often. Maybe a couple hours every few months.

[The_Semicolon]

Thanks for the response. I tried resending and the pull before I wrote my original message. A few hours a month is cool. Hopefully it gets fixed soon and this was just a fluke for me. Sprint hasn't responded to me yet. It is over 24 hours now but I am staying calm. Fingers crossed.

[batrad]

was trying to setup an email account yesterday from AT&T BIS site, it ended up wiping all the email accounts from my device.

Finally got them back today after I resend the service books.

Funny thing is, everytime i try to login to the BIS Site, its showing a different PIN for my ID and wants to confirm if I want to switch to that PIN.. I have been using the same device for over 6 months...

It seems that all is better in BIS land... but do we get a reason for this downtime? What was the cause, and what is the remedy to make sure it doesn't happen again? Perfectly valid questions I think.

My trusty google news has failed to direct me towards any notice of any official Blackberry outages yesterday.

It happens once in a while. Who knows why...and I would imagine sometimes it's nothing that they can predict - something literally goes wrong. I've never seen it down for more than an hour, usually much less.

[The_Semicolon]

Well, all is not better. I am still down. Over 24 hours now. Sprint cannot give me an estimated time.
Cannot access the BIS site to resend my service books. I was able to get on there this morning but it was really slow loading. Now it will not load.
Ugh.
