Islamabad: Millions of BlackBerry users across Pakistan faced another
cut-off from online services Tuesday, just a few hours after the
Canadian cell phone makers claimed it had fixed the problem.
"BlackBerry
services have been affected due to an unplanned international outage at
RIM. Inconvenience is regretted," one of the leading telecom service
providers said in a message to its users.
Canada-based Research
in Motion (RIM) that makes BlackBerry claimed early Tuesday that it had
fixed the problem and services have been restored.
Monday evening BlackBerry services collapsed in Asia, Europe, Africa, and Middle East.
It
took nearly 20 hours to restore the services. However, within a few
hours the services collapsed again, causing hardships to the users, many
of whom rely on it for their business communications. Online
