Telegram goes DOWN for thousands of users in mystery outage

TELEGRAM has gone down for thousands of users worldwide in a mystery outage.

Problems with the privacy-focussed messaging app began around 2:45 p.m. UK time (9:45 a.m. EST) on Monday, according to online outage trackers.

DownDetector reports that users are unable to use the desktop and mobile apps. More than 1,000 people have reported problems with the site.

When attempting to access Telegram’s app, users are seeing “updating” or “connecting” error messages.

It is unclear if the US company – one of WhatsApp’s biggest rivals – is aware of the problem.
