Are you having issues with Smart? You are not the only one, as Smart, PLDT, and TNT are experiencing an outage today (June 17) as reported by Downdetector.
From what we have gathered so far, there’s no mobile data for Smart users (even our Smart numbers are affected), and other users report that they cannot load their Smart numbers via GCash. Those who tried loading their Smart numbers got a notification saying that “Buy Load for Smart is temporarily unavailable due to a system upgrade”. Gcash gives an estimate time of 6:25pm for their load services to Smart to be restored.
Right now, it’s not clear what’s causing the issue for Smart, PLDT, and TNT, but they did post in an advisory that “some Smart subscribers may experience data connectivity concerns,” and that they are working on restoring services as soon as possible.
