We are pleased to confirm that BlackBerry services have been restored. Once again, thank you for your patience.
As BlackBerry services continue to return to normal, some users may still be experiencing delays with messaging and browsing. In some cases this can be resolved by a full device reboot. To reboot your device, remove and then reinsert the battery.

The messaging and browsing delays that some of you are still experiencing were caused by a core switch failure within RIM’s infrastructure. Although the system is designed to failover to a back-up switch, the failover did not function as previously tested. As a result, a large backlog of data was generated and we are now working to clear that backlog and restore normal service as quickly as possible. We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience caused to many of you and we will continue to keep you informed.
