Mobilink always brings new exciting services for his customers

Here are official words from mobilink for down time…

Mobilink confirms the complete restoration of all services including voice, SMS and data connectivity that were affected due to a fire incident yesterday.

“All services have been restored and our customers should not be experiencing any difficulty in getting through to their loved ones. We sincerely regret any inconvenience caused to our valued customers,” said Omar Manzur, Director Public Relations, Mobilink.

Any customers continuing to experience difficulty may call our helpline 111 from their mobile or 111-300-300 from a landline.

What really Happened to Mobilink?
A norm among the millions of cell users when something goes wrong is to call their helpline. However, that is hard to do when there is no line to call for help. So, the resourceful ones took to the web to figure out why they had been placed into this dreaded ‘no link’ zone. And then the sharing of tweets and statuses began, with the venting of anger and frustration. It took a few hours for the realization that something serious had occurred. The slow trickle of news from various sources spoke of a fire at some center in Islamabad that belonged to a telecommunication company. And it is not that hard to put 2 and 2 together. The more connected individuals tracked down the carnage to a fire that had broken out at Mobilink’s Mobile Switching Centre (MSC) in Islamabad.
