M1 3G service partially affected on 15 January 2013
 
NOTICE TO M1 CUSTOMERS

One of our mobile network switches is impacted by a power problem and mobile services to some of our customers may be partially affected. We are in the process of restoring service and apologise for the inconvenience. Affected customers may want to try switching their devices from the 3G to 2G network.

Second Notice

Our engineers are still working with utmost urgency to restore full service and part of this process is to divert traffic to another switch. While the affected switch is being attended to, we advise customers with 3G service issues to try switching their devices to the 2G network temporarily. We apologise for the inconvenience caused and will provide updates as soon as we can.

Third Notice

To restore service, we have connected the affected network entities to a working switch and migration of traffic from the affected switch is taking place progressively.

"We sincerely apologise to our affected customers for the inconvenience caused, and thank them for their support, understanding and patience. Please be assured that our top priority is to resolve this issue as quickly as possible," said Karen Kooi, Chief Executive Officer, M1 Limited.

Fourth Notice

Restoration of 3G services for the affected customers is progressing well and a significant number of them are now able to revert back to 3G services.

Fifth Notice

Our engineers have been working round the clock and more customers can now access their 3G services. We are continuing work towards full restoration.

Sixth Notice

Our Engineers are working flat out to restore the network. This complex restoration work involves loading the configuration for each base station into the working switch and comprehensive testing, which includes drive tests in the coverage area of each individual base station to ensure full call continuity for both voice and data services.

Customers who are still experiencing service difficulty are encouraged to switch to the 2G network, which is unaffected and available. To do so, please switch your handset to 2G and reboot it.

We estimate full restoration of 3G services in the remaining affected areas by midnight tomorrow. We thank you for your understanding and patience.

Tenth Notice

Any customer who faces service difficulty is advised to power off the handset, remove and reinsert the SIM card and turn on the handset again.
