Alert: BlackBerry Email Outage?

By Bla1ze on 13 Apr 2009 04:09 pm

Forums are filling up, dataoutages.com is reporting an outage and ~~Verizon~~ all BlackBerry customers are in a frazzle on Twitter. Yes, there is an email outage going on at the present moment. Hang tight Crackberry Nation, all will be fine soon, promise! Other carriers also seem to be affected, AT&T, T-Mobile and Rogers users are reporting latent emails. Need to vent or share what you're doing to stay calm, speak on it in the comments!

How often do these sort of outages happen. A personal blackberry without BIS is useless.

dpeters11 Apr 13, 2009 at 4:25 pm

I don't know how often it happens, but BIS doesn't get the same level of service in terms of uptime guarantees as BES. My units are working fine on that side.

All Systems are go in Vero Beach

Tmobile

chrisb3 Apr 13, 2009 at 4:17 pm

Data is fine. No email. It's a BIS email outage. I'm on VZW.

spotmark Apr 13, 2009 at 4:17 pm

I'm in Massachusetts, and all seems well here. Just browsed to a couple of different websites,and sent a text to my wife.

Anonymouss Apr 13, 2009 at 4:18 pm

everything is working for me as of 1:17 PST

green mtns rider Apr 13, 2009 at 4:19 pm

yup, sms/mms and interent are working fine in central vermont!

stubbornswiss Apr 13, 2009 at 4:19 pm

I am in MD, and the Verizon network seems to be up and running.

Just sent an email from my pc to my blackberry.com account. Instant delivery!!

mattbrasher Apr 13, 2009 at 4:19 pm

I'm not having any issues with email or sms. Net seems fine too.

Guess I'm one of the lucky ones.

ajh0914 Apr 13, 2009 at 4:20 pm

No emails, but SMS and internet are working fine

djdeerock Apr 13, 2009 at 4:21 pm

On VZW BIS near Chicago. Data like browser and twitter is fine....emails VERY late or not coming in at all since 12pm central time.

Drewbanger Apr 13, 2009 at 4:21 pm

Everything is fine in Dallas.

Anonymous4832 Apr 13, 2009 at 4:22 pm

My email has been really delayed for a few days now. I'm kinda glad that its actually out so it will get fixed. I'm on Alltel in Nebraska.

bitemark Apr 13, 2009 at 4:23 pm

This is sounding more and more like it's happening at RIM/Blackberry; myself and a couple of friends are on through Rogers (one person has a Rogers email address that forwards to her Telus device) and we were all experiencing no emails for the last hour.

Actually, they came through for one friend after he called Rogers support (the tech asked him to create a username on the Rogers/blackberry email system, and revalidate his email passwords, and BOOM, email came flooding in), mine started working about 10 minutes after he did that and the other friend on Telus *just* received all her mail a few moments ago...

telususer Apr 13, 2009 at 4:27 pm

I can't get any email on my World Edition, but the data services seem to be working.

jbdale Apr 13, 2009 at 4:29 pm

Im in Kansas City, no issues here.

squirtbottle09 Apr 13, 2009 at 4:30 pm

Im a verizon agent and blackberry user. Our customers are starting to realize theres a problems and wigging out. Lol. Hopefully this is fixed soon.

Sube152 Apr 13, 2009 at 4:33 pm

Everything is down in Orange County, CA!!
this sucks

homeboy123 Apr 13, 2009 at 4:32 pm

I thought that something was wrong... I just resent service books for nothing...lol

harcal Apr 13, 2009 at 4:32 pm

Nada problema here in Hotlanta!

Xavier85 Apr 13, 2009 at 4:33 pm

T-mobile in norther Utah is working perfectly as usual!

Anonymous2 Apr 13, 2009 at 4:33 pm

I'm on BIS, using Desktop Redirector to deliver mail from work. I received a message at 4:25pm EDT in Outlook, and it was on my phone by 4:26pm.

calionheart Apr 13, 2009 at 4:33 pm

interesting

greatcasa Apr 13, 2009 at 4:34 pm

Can you hear me now? Did you get my email? Nope. But I did on my Sprint BB :)

Aug0211 Apr 13, 2009 at 4:34 pm

This is getting old, once this month and once last month. We pay a premium for these devices and missing emails like this can have huge consequences for people. Sure, you might say to check your computer not your phone - but we pay big bucks for supposed "reliability" from RIM!

On Verizon, no emails, everything else is fine.

Your name: Apr 13, 2009 at 4:34 pm

BES: Fine
BIS: Outages
Browsers: Fine
SMS: Fine
MMS: Fine
xxx@xxx.blackberry.net: Fine

mkurz12 Apr 13, 2009 at 4:38 pm

I just sent 2 emails from my computer to my gmail address and my Blackberry email. I recieved the one to my Blackberry account immediately but did not recieve the one to my gmail.
The internet, SMS and MMS all seem to be working fine.

UpdateThe email to my Gmail adress came through about a few minutes later.

trinity369 Apr 13, 2009 at 4:35 pm

Nothing is working at all here in the ARKLATEX area. Tried sending test emails, and nothing yet. Hopefully it's fixed soon

mad_vtak Apr 13, 2009 at 4:36 pm

i was getting all my emails on the iphone but not the BB. I was guessing there was another outage or something like that
happened.

no email Apr 13, 2009 at 4:36 pm

I have not got email since 12:00. Can read e-mail thru Gmail app but it is not being pushed out to my phone.

Boston MA

marvelou5 Apr 13, 2009 at 4:37 pm

havanahjoe Apr 13, 2009 at 4:46 pm

I have been without e-mail for almost 2 hours now. Family in Mexico have reported that Telcel and Nextel are experiencing BIS issues down there as well.

bsewall Apr 13, 2009 at 4:47 pm

This is the first time I've experienced an outage on VZW in Southern Cali.

CurlyFatAngry Apr 13, 2009 at 4:47 pm

Toronto on Rogers, BIS is dead !

xmayze Apr 13, 2009 at 4:48 pm

Johnny blue Apr 13, 2009 at 4:48 pm

Internet and SMS are ok in San Francisco. Email is not working.

hcarrega Apr 13, 2009 at 4:50 pm

maybe data outage is a somali pirate hacking;) lololol
i hope that outage dont come to europe:)

gitano1 Apr 13, 2009 at 4:49 pm

I just ran a test in the Seattle area and had no problem at all. Email sent from my workstation appeared on the BB in less than one minute. I am a Verizon customer.

cslave Apr 13, 2009 at 4:49 pm

East coast VZW here, havent noticed any problems

as a matter of fact, I just got an NY Times news alert and a forum reply notification...so I guess VZW is all good over here

Carol C Apr 13, 2009 at 4:50 pm

Telus BC Apr 13, 2009 at 4:51 pm

I have had email troubles all day after i installed the new operating system through desktop manager. Telus, Canada West Coast. I thought this might have something to do with the 4.5 OS that i installed this morning on my blackberry Curve 8330.

jnixbb09 Apr 13, 2009 at 4:52 pm

Just recieved a ton of notifications.... Verizon in Southwest Missouri.

infernl Apr 13, 2009 at 4:52 pm

Bcloutier Apr 13, 2009 at 4:58 pm

I've got Telus is BC and my BIS Email is out, too. Data and texts are fine, just email. Tried resending service books and still didn't get my test message. Damn lol. At least I'm at home with my MacBook so I won't miss too many emails.

Beau79 Apr 13, 2009 at 5:00 pm

annnnd 23 messages JUST hit my berry at once...

1jaxstate1 Apr 13, 2009 at 5:01 pm

LOL, AT&T is getting swamped. The recording says "we are having high call volume due to BlackBerry outage, if you are calling about blackberry service, the problem is betting looked at"

Apr 13, 2009 at 5:01 pm

I noticed yesterday a slow down of recieving email. It took a long time to recieve or send..

AdonisRouse Apr 13, 2009 at 5:02 pm

This is why I threw my BB in the river & got an iphone!

BBA Apr 13, 2009 at 5:02 pm

No problem in Germany / Vodafone.

el_geto Apr 13, 2009 at 5:03 pm

clone15 Apr 13, 2009 at 5:07 pm

Email is not working in Iowa......everything else is working fine. (Verizon)

crackie Apr 13, 2009 at 5:08 pm

im on sprint/nextel and my email went down about 1:30pm and came back up just before 3pm, while my text was down till about 3:30.

macross_island Apr 13, 2009 at 5:09 pm

This is why I have Twitter as a back up...

stuaw11 Apr 13, 2009 at 5:09 pm

I dont understand

We pay a premium amount to our carriers for BB services and since owning a bold for 2 months now, RIM services have been down 4 or 5 times now not counting the expected outages at night for upgrades. Thats ridiculous IMO.

Ive used FREE mail2web on WM devices for years for activesync/push email and had it of all of 2 or 3 times over a span on 3 years or so. And thats a free service!! Most hosted email solutions give a 99.9% uptime.

Time for RIM to step up and cure these outages plaguing us almost weekly now.

OfficerDan Apr 13, 2009 at 5:10 pm

Just got off the phone with ATT they claim its fixed in the Chicago area. My emails started coming in about 5 min ago.

dliang Apr 13, 2009 at 5:11 pm

It's just a email delay, all data works fine for me right now. Verizon, El Paso TX.

j from ny Apr 13, 2009 at 5:13 pm

unseenme Apr 13, 2009 at 5:13 pm

Mine is now working.

TelusUser Apr 13, 2009 at 5:17 pm

Hairbear1954 Apr 13, 2009 at 5:18 pm

I am on AT&T in Phoenix, AZ area. Outage since 11:00. Got some service back on around 2pm but it is now back off again for me.

Fortunately this is not a normal thing...wait...my services just came back on again...2:17pm PST.

maddie1128 Apr 13, 2009 at 5:18 pm

Still no e-mails here in Pa. Everything else is fine though! Hey- the sun is even shining! woo-hoo!

chris4851 Apr 13, 2009 at 5:18 pm

I'm going crazy here, NO EMAIL..... what do I do!!! I feel liek a piece of my life has just vanished.

Hairbear1954 Apr 13, 2009 at 5:18 pm

johnnybbads Apr 13, 2009 at 5:22 pm

Seems everyone here at U of Waterloo had an outage I talked to. Then suddenly got 12 after a few hours.

elvin1983 Apr 13, 2009 at 5:22 pm

Well, I just had all of my e-mails/facebook notifications shoot thru, but I just sent a test message and haven't recieved it yet... kind of frustrating...

MRosendale Apr 13, 2009 at 5:23 pm

just got a new storm and set everything up and thought it was my device but now see other problems. verizon user in michigan. cannot connect to email settings

Cub fan Apr 13, 2009 at 5:23 pm

I am not able to send or recieve email, texts, or phone calls. What is going on??? I have a Bold. My husband and daughter are both up and working. They have Curves. What gives?

iPhone Junkie Apr 13, 2009 at 5:23 pm

What's all this stuff I hear about how Blackberry's being superior to my trusty iPhone????? Can you all hear me now??? Ha, Ha, Ha. My iPhone is receiving e-mails just fine, wait a second let me check a few of my friends'... Yep their iPhones are working just fine too. So much for the reliability argument you Blackberry suckas like to use on the iPhone crowd. I know how you can fix your Blackberry problem... walk (I mean run) over to AT&T and get a smartphone that works!

YupYup Man Apr 13, 2009 at 5:23 pm

Emails stopped last night around 5pm. Came in this morning, and once early this afternoon. SMS and browser works fine.

It's like a don't even exist.

dhyde79 Apr 13, 2009 at 5:28 pm

it was a total outage up here, I'm in amarillo, have an alltel pearl and curve, and a vzw storm and they all three lost 100% data connectivity, no apps, no web, no email, no bbm.....just talk and text.....everyone else in my store lost it all too....

Drewsky415 Apr 13, 2009 at 5:30 pm

E-Mail out on my T-Mobile here in SF.

Internet and SMS/MMS is fine.

heckufaguy Apr 13, 2009 at 5:31 pm

Seemed to come back up 5pm-ish est. Was out from about noon til 5.
Least it wasn't just my 8350i THIS time.

goosen Apr 13, 2009 at 5:32 pm

I was unable to recieve e-mail from about 10:30 am to 2:15 pm Pacific Time... NOW my e-mails are pouring in. WONDERFUL.

oilseeker Apr 13, 2009 at 5:45 pm

I've been flying for the past few hours and thought it was pretty weird that every time we landed somewhere, I'd get my e-mails on my iPhone but not my BB. Guess this explains it. I'm getting BB Messenger messages and PINs, but not my e-mail. Never thought I would have to rely on my iPhone to get my e-mails . . .

Update: About 2 minutes ago all my missing e-mails came in. Hopefully it's really fixed!

hoorayitsfixed Apr 13, 2009 at 5:34 pm

WOOT WOOT, i think its fixed, just a second ago, about 15 emails all delivered at once!! yeah!! :)

TheCount1 Apr 13, 2009 at 5:38 pm

calizae74 Apr 13, 2009 at 6:10 pm

I know I was getting my emails real late with the wrong time. Then I wasn't getting any for about an hour. Next thing I know I got like 20 emails back to back. Glad everything is up and running now.

Canadabat Apr 13, 2009 at 6:13 pm

All emails to and from rogers.blackberry.net were down this morning, seems to be back up now.

Drewsky415 Apr 13, 2009 at 6:36 pm

All my E-Mail just poured in. T-Mobile in SF

snowboarder61 Apr 13, 2009 at 6:37 pm

I've been getting emails all day without any problems... on Verizon in the Seattle area... Wonder what the deal is with some of your areas... seems to be spotty... some people are working just fine, others aren't... I've gotten emails while I was reading this blog post and comments..

spddare65#cb Apr 13, 2009 at 6:37 pm

I'm in NY on Verizon and my e-mails are still coming through.

elvin1983 Apr 13, 2009 at 6:42 pm

Just got a few more e-mails maybe 15 minutes ago, so i deckded to check again and see if they were coming back as usual, and the 2 test messages i sent myself came thru without a hitch, fast as ever. Looks like they got it squared away!

Noah_Boatman Apr 13, 2009 at 6:45 pm

Anyone know when this application will be compatible with the Blackberry Curve 8330 v4.5?

mattbrasher Apr 13, 2009 at 7:07 pm

I'm running a 8330 with 4.5 and the iheart radio app works fine.

Rokashi Apr 13, 2009 at 6:53 pm

I'm getting all my emails just fine. Hopefully it doesn't affect me later...

Guylene Apr 14, 2009 at 12:14 am

I have been receiving and sending emails all day, no problems here in Vancouver on Bell network. I have had my storm since January and never had any problems with it.

crastshmor Apr 13, 2009 at 7:11 pm

eclipse604 Apr 13, 2009 at 7:14 pm

Rogers in Vancouver, BC. working fine. gmail imap now works with no delay! i was having 2-20min delays for the past 2 weeks.

korp#IM Apr 13, 2009 at 7:28 pm

Unbelievable! lol.

kwright817 Apr 13, 2009 at 7:28 pm

BIS w/Verizon down in Nashville, Tennessee area. Can't add an count in BIS either. Perhaps it is related to the BIS 2.6 upgrade (see my update at the bottom of this post: http://www.wrightpcconsulting.com/blog/2009/04/12/google-apps-and-cpanel... )?

"Update: Looks like BIS 2.6 is not yet ready for prime time. I recently discovered that sending from two of my accounts using a desktop client (Thunderbird) caused my entire Sent box to be pushed to the my BlackBerry. Firt time is was 58 messages, the second was over 183. That is not acceptable!"

roadrunner441 Apr 13, 2009 at 7:30 pm

All services working here in Stuart, FL on AT&T.

DanainNC Apr 13, 2009 at 7:39 pm

I am in north carolina. My phone has been working fine all day, but just a few minutes ago lost the network completely. Where there used to be bars it now just says "OFF"

Evan McMenamy Apr 13, 2009 at 7:49 pm

Danieljbrown32 Apr 13, 2009 at 8:14 pm

Australia FTW!

ericliao90 Apr 13, 2009 at 8:38 pm

yea my email was not being received from about 3pm until 5:30. i tried resending service books and idk if it was just coincidence but after about 20-30 mins my emails started flowing in again.

gmpblack Apr 13, 2009 at 8:44 pm

No problems here in MA...emails have been fine all day.

npunk42 Apr 13, 2009 at 8:44 pm

Wonder if its connected to this somehow

skitchbeatz Apr 13, 2009 at 8:46 pm

I'm in Ann Arbor Michigan on AT&T and things are stimm coming through.

vx1 Apr 13, 2009 at 8:47 pm

I have not had any problems yet ... on rogers to report

woodyblv Apr 13, 2009 at 8:56 pm

Back up.

lesmchl1 Apr 13, 2009 at 9:01 pm

I started noticing an issue around 1 or so. I stopped getting GMail, then would get 5 or 6 at a time.

Bart Davis Apr 13, 2009 at 9:04 pm

8830 WE on VZW in Charlotte, North Carolina. BB email has been extremely spotty all day. 2-4 hour delay receiving emails or not receiving them at all. This is what, outage #3 or #4 in 2009 for RIM? Leave the service books alone guys! My phone works fine until you guys start screwing with the service books then everything goes haywire for a few hours. *Shutting the BB off for the night*

NEOFRAG Apr 13, 2009 at 9:14 pm

No email outage here... been using mine all day.

JCook111 Apr 13, 2009 at 9:18 pm

I'm in Central MN, Verizon/Blackberry Curve user all emails and text are fine as is web.

rod11 Apr 13, 2009 at 9:23 pm

its okay its monday do i really want email today

applejosh Apr 13, 2009 at 9:27 pm

I was experiencing some delays earlier today, and I did get a duplicate at some point (4 hours after I received it the first time). Really don't care enough at this point of the day to test to see if work email is working again (BIS through OWA), but gmail appears to be working about as fast as normal.

dfourmet Apr 13, 2009 at 9:35 pm

I'm on the Verizon network and haven't experienced any email delivery problems. Lucky I guess...

wcihlu Apr 13, 2009 at 9:36 pm

Att in the DC area seems fine. I'm getting emails but i dont know if theres a delay.

elfaure Apr 13, 2009 at 9:40 pm

I was wondering why I regested with some service providers and didn't get that immediate email I useally get. Its been kinda quiet today. Just thought I was getting a bit unpopular. Thanks for the heads up Crackberry.

ps-I'm tethered (with bluetooth, Ha Ha I figured it out and you can't without Tetherberry, Ha Ha) too and data is flowing, but that has nothing to do with missing all my voice calls today unless we're talking voice over IP.

As eclipse604 mentioned above, now I am getting emails from Gmail in real time. Did RIM upgrade their email service?

Still having problems in St. Louis with only xxx@vzw.blackberry.net e-mail.

CeeBee Apr 13, 2009 at 10:43 pm

Sitting here without email since 11:18 am. Messaging works though. Hmmm... previous reports of email working in DC. Just unlucky I guess. :(

ChuckChuck Apr 13, 2009 at 10:49 pm

I haven't notice any issues.
SMS = OK, been using it all day
MMS = N/A, I havent used it
EMail = OK, I have 5 accounts and they've been coming fine, just fired a test one from my private email to my gmail, no prob.
INet = OK, I was checking Viigo and FB

Hopefully I continues this way, I;m in constant communication with some classmates and I need stability to finish my HW.

I am in Atlanta GA and we just got our email messaging back at 11:00 Pm on Mon. this is crazy I am applying for jobs and these are the email I use on my resume so I could not get any of this until just now. This can not happen again.

Sprint 8130 in NYC still not receiving email (gmail imap) since noon yesterday. I just pulled the battery to make sure. Still nothing. Like most others, SMS and data work fine.

Axe#CB Apr 14, 2009 at 6:08 am

I am able to SEND email, sms, data, phone calls, etc.
But I cannot RECEIVE email, sms, or phone calls. I am limited to BBM and AIM.
I hope they fix this soon...

blackryn0 Apr 14, 2009 at 6:33 am

I was having issues with my email mms

MotoTiller Apr 14, 2009 at 9:21 am

I had the same problem yesterday on my 8350i, all I did was resend my certificates and all was well again.

Today everything is working fine again.

Asulli Apr 14, 2009 at 10:42 am

I thought everything was cool. Woke up this morning to BBM not working and saying everyone was unreachable, and not being able to access anything thru the browser. I can only get texts at this point, and of course make and recieve calls...

EDIT: As of 10:30 or so I am back up an running. Hope this is fixed for good now.

edwarja6 Apr 14, 2009 at 2:03 pm

Javaman Apr 14, 2009 at 8:28 pm

Anyone on Rogers having problems with receiving emails?
I've got 4 email accounts mapped to by BB and emails are not being delivered from any of them. Been like that since at least this morning.

Cosmo_Girl Apr 15, 2009 at 4:01 pm
