BlackBerry BIS down for T-Mobile and AT&T?

borat-bis

We’ve been getting tips about this ever since mid-day but figured it would clear up. It seems as if it hasn’t, though. Are you a BlackBerry user on AT&T or T-Mobile with BlackBerry Internet Service issues? Hit us up — get your frustration out. We’re here for you.

A BIS 2.8 upgrade would possibly explain the issues people are having, but those are usually done with maintenance windows so the carriers know what’s happening and that doesn’t look to be the case with this outage.

    I talked to a Blackberry specialist at Sprint around 5pm EDT after receiving HTTP Error 504 in my browser – apparently the BIS server crashed about 2 hours prior and was expected to be off for another 5 hours. He told me that this would effect a multitude of functions of all Blackberry’s on all networks.

    Good thing I was calling for a friend – I have an iPhone :D

    BIS mail stopped for me around 2:30 CST and had been trickling in since. Around 8, the logjam appeared to clear up and a flood of email came pouring in. :-)

    Email was down for several hours on my TMO BB and my Sprint/Nextel BB.

    I still haven’t gotten emails on Sprint BB, even though I know I have received roughly 20 from checking my inbox.

    Based in DC but in NYC for work.
