This has been going around and since it covers what we mainly deal with here on our sites, I thought I’d toss it up just for some humor.

Reported from: Jadey <jadey[at]blackberryforums.com>
There seems to be an issue with data between NA and UK (and possibly others) via PIN & therefore BBM.
Typical symptoms are that non-NA BBs can PIN/BBM devices in NA, but if NA BBs attempt a reply and/or new message, the non-NA contact appears unreachable in Blackberry messenger and no delivery status More >

Just spoken to RIM.
They logged my query with a specific ticket number, and say this issue is with their top support under reference BB122535
As just confirmed to me on the phone, this outage is covering the EMEA region, not just UK.
My BES Server (UK) SRP is currently disconnected. Had a brief reconnection around 15.04 BST, but it does not seem reliable at the moment.
RIM logged this as a ticket from me, and will email me when this is “fixed”. When I get that update, I will post it.

Our UK Voda connection has been stable since RIM came back 30 mins ago (15:00 BST). We are geographically very close to RIM’s NOC so that could have something to do with it.

Still no official word from RIM, but just got this from o2
==========================
O2 regrets to inform you that a fault affecting our BlackBerry service was identified earlier this afternoon. This resulted in a loss of service to some of our customers. The fault is within RIM’s network. RIM & O2 engineers have been engaged and we have now been informed that service is restored.
