BlackBerry services down in Europe, MiddleEast and Africa.

The BlackBerry Messenger (fondly referred to as BBM) remains unmatched as a way to chat with other BlackBerry enthusiasts exclusively.

Unfortunately BlackBerry services have been down for most of today, 10th October 2011, due to what may be a huge technical glitch affecting Europe, Middle East and Africa.

Speaking for damage control, RIM, the company responsible for manufacturing the BlackBerry device said,” We are working to resolve an issue currently impacting some BlackBerry subscribers in Europe, Middle East and Africa “We’re investigating, and we apologize to our customers for any inconvenience caused whilst this is resolved.”

Services like BBM, email, internet and app connectivity have been hampered for the entire day starting at about 12 Noon East African time.
