Research In Motion has restored service for those Vodafone customers affected by Friday’s BlackBerry service outage.
The problem meant some users in Europe, the Middle East and Africa were unable to use email, web browsing or BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) functionality on the handsets.
Vodafone customers reportedly spotted the access problems mid-morning on Friday, though not all of the UK operator’s BlackBerry users seemed to be affected.
“Our apologies to any customers impacted by the BlackBerry service issue today. We can confirm that services have been restored and are now operating normally,” the Canadian handset maker said in a statement sent early afternoon.
