Actualization: Telegram begins to restore its services on mobile platforms despite the fact that some operators and countries still do not have the capacity to establish connections with the platform’s servers.
A breakdown of the Telegram servers ruins the messaging platform: as verified by its users, it is impossible to send messages, also attach photos or videos. Messaging is disrupted in much of the world.
No messaging platform is immune to communication outages since servers can crash suddenly and without knowing when service will be restored. This is currently happening on Telegram: the platform is on hiatus and without the messages being able to be delivered to their recipients. We don’t know when the service will be restored.
Unable to receive messages
As we check on our phones, the apps are unable to send the messages (the timer appears), also to receive them; thus making it impossible to talk to anyone through the platform.
In Down Detector you can see the error in Telegram servers and assignment scope. The problems on the messaging platform began around 5:30 p.m. in Europe without Telegram having yet managed to restore service in most territories.
And Twitter the telegram account warns that the problems are beginning to subside. Even so, at the moment the servers continue to be down for a large part of the countries, as is the case in Europe.
To check if the platform has been restored, check if the messages sent have been delivered or are still pending: in the event that a clock icon appears in the lower right corner, said message continues without leaving the phone. In this case, make sure there is a problem with Telegram and not with the Internet connection:
- Access another application, such as the browser.
- Does it load any page? The problem is Telegram. If your browser is also not loading, your internet connection is not working.
- Make sure you haven’t accidentally turned on airplane mode.
- Check that the mobile data is active and that you still have it in your tariff.
- If the Internet still does not work, try restarting the device.
As long as the Telegram servers continue to be down, there’s not much you can do to send messages apart from switching apps or trying with an SMS: Until the connections with the Telegram servers are restored, you will be without service. Check from time to time if the messages have already been sent.
