Airtel Disaster

[Pat]

From what I have heard and read, it seems that the Airtel Mumbai network is down since morning. That is nearly more than 15 hours now I think. What kind of **** is this ?

If our(company I am working for) clients production server is down and we cant get it back working in an hour or so, all hell breaks loose. It might even end our contract. But I guess these airtel SOBs are too lame to care.

So did anyone face any problems due to this major service outage ?

[Pathik]

Not the whole Mumbai network. Just some series of numbers. Mine is working fine.

Yes, with Vodafone & Reliance not in Mumabi though. This didn't happen today.

The outage of Vodafone network lasted for almost the whole night after 11 PM & that of Reliance lasted for the whole day.

Airtel also stopped working a couple of years back.

[Kenshin]

Mine is still down

[Garbage]

We had same problem here in Ahmednagar (MH) too

Here's the reason !

[freshseasons]

Same here in Nagpur.Though the network is up i can't make a decent call whole day.
So bad when something like this happens to something you take up so much for granted.
Next time i will try remembering that its a MOBILE after all.

Due to fire at Lower Parel, our network services in some areas of Mumbai are affected. Services will be restored shortly. Thank you for your continued support.

Civil Lines Area...! However Nagpur is so small compared to some of the cities that specifying area in Nagpur doesnt make sense.
Every thing here from point A to B is less than 10 mins..

Everything above Bandra is down. i was in Pune last night and everything there was down on roaming, my network came back near National Airport.

I have heard that normal services should resume from tomorrow.

[cool_techie_tvm]

Gosh, 4 days !!

[iMav]

No outgoing yet.

[krazzy]

I'm posting this message from a cybercafe because my Airtel is down since the last 4 days and hence no GPRS to connect to the net. God knows how long will it take.

[axxo]

last evening recharged my prepaid airtel twice for Rs.121 thru online.
Payment was successful but no topup amount credited and not able to make any calls as of now with the current 0.02 balance.
