Telegram Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • YS Youssef • See Pinned Tweet (@YS) reported

    @Loo2a82 @telegram This does not affect this issue however. When you sign up you still must give telegram your number to create an account. They cross reference this number with everyone else’s phonebook and send notifications to everyone who has your number saved in their phone.

  • JayjaysThoughts TheMissingCovidData (@JayjaysThoughts) reported

    @catturd2 @HamEggsnSam @blayone I just had an alert come up with a link to all the declassified files, they’ve just gone live. I stupidly came off the link and now I can’t find it anywhere. Don’t know if it was Twitter or telegram but it was wiped for sure! Any help?

  • AfricanDavid david bafana msomi (@AfricanDavid) reported

    @JusCallMeWill Been using Telegram for school purposes for over a year now and since that privacy issue over a week ago, I've been getting 'XYZ has joined Telegram'. People were probably deleting Whatsapp in large numbers

  • LagosAMEBO Lagos Amebo 💡 (@LagosAMEBO) reported

    Signal and Telegram have one thing in common. Once a new contact joins the app - ( someone help me with that Tom and telephone meme)

  • JustineSmithies Justine Smithies 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏳️‍🌈 (@JustineSmithies) reported

    So after the WhatsApp privacy issues what messaging app are you now using ? Please RT . #WhatsappPrivacy #SignalApp #Telegram

  • RaajSanand Raaj Sanand (@RaajSanand) reported

    @HinduSimp @FlirtingKaapi @Havaldarshinde i still want to see WhatsApp burn they still restrict forwarding message and don't allow forwarding a message on a broadcast list. Thats censorship is a problem they won't let you pin more than 3 groups or contacts. So many other essential features that are in telegram & signal.

  • GRajput95 SUGAR PROHIBITION ACTIVIST (@GRajput95) reported

    @telegram Hello, I Don't Receive The Telegram Verification Code. How Can I Fix This Problem?

  • frontwheelskid Mathieu Brasdefer (@frontwheelskid) reported

    @gnome_196883 This is the problem, I have both of the apps & it would appear most of the people I know have switched over to Telegram, so far.

  • has__ak 𝐇𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐧 𝐊𝐢𝐠𝐨 (@has__ak) reported

    A lot of people around the world have been leaving WhatsApp to Telegram and Signal, so much so Signal shut down briefly because of influx of new users.

  • thatmalluboy മല്ലുചെക്കൻ (@thatmalluboy) reported

  • pirasalbe Alberto Piras (@pirasalbe) reported

    @telegram I'm looking for help here. I can't use the advanced search feature on Android even though I have hundreds of chats because I archive all my chats but 3/4. The requirement to use the feature is to have at least 10 chat not archived. Could you please change this?

  • 4MinorityInRSA BreakTheSilenceAboutSouthAfrica (UK) (@4MinorityInRSA) reported

    While there's no problem receiving on average 115 Telegram messages a day has now increased to beyond a thousand each day this last week. I make the effort to respond to each message.

  • mlnangalama Martha Leah Nangalama (@mlnangalama) reported

    @KweziMama By the way, I don't hack. My paying job precludes it. A gentleman contacted me this morning on Telegram and said we don't help them when we should. However, I understand that they are tweaking things. Gonna check later as the guy vanished shortly after.

  • TheRaw420 Dr. President-Elect 2020➡️ (@TheRaw420) reported

    @RSBNetwork @telegram Does anyone know the status of Gab? It's been down for three days now...

  • themulti0 TheMulti0 (@themulti0) reported

    @RuneX83240282 @telegram @Saffron_inked Sad to hear, what's your problem? Maybe I'll have an idea..

  • LumiRueLuv Lumi Rue (@LumiRueLuv) reported

    @xychelsea This exactly. I can't believe it is shut down right now. I also heard people are flocking to Telegram, whichs claims to be super secure from what I've seen, but isn't open source and I don't believe is end to end encription?

  • Likuwe_1 🌡️🌡️Vaccine SA 💉 💉 ⚰️⚰️ (@Likuwe_1) reported

    @telegram We don't have telegram data here South Africa help us... Telegram app is chowing our data

  • MartianOrthodox Martian Orthodox (@MartianOrthodox) reported

    @ggreenwald Motte: shut down Signal/Telegram because of The Bads possibly hiding crime behind encryption. Bailey: zap podcasts, in plain English, just because they're The Bads.

  • ViJaY_BhAsKaR Vijay Bhaskar (@ViJaY_BhAsKaR) reported

    @WhatsApp Liars.. You are just trying to stop the wave of movement of users to Signal/Telegram by delaying the move to new TOC, and hope that hype dies down by that time and people get Lazy to move to Signal as it requires combined effort from users and their friends/family.

  • RReverser Ingvar Stepanyan (@RReverser) reported

    @terrysahaidak @telegram Doesn't help - turns out, they don't send it, they locally notify anyone who has Telegram and your phone number in their address book. You have no control over this.

  • SGSmith520 Wilma Flintstone (@SGSmith520) reported

    @TheMartyOShow Set up a telegram channel. Gab is giving many people problems.

  • RamAhgir2 Ram Ahgir (@RamAhgir2) reported

    WhatsApp postponed a data-sharing change as users concerned about privacy fled the Facebook-owned messaging service and flocked to rivals Telegram and Signal. Canceled its February 8 deadline for accepting an update to its terms concerning sharing data with Facebook.

  • clking61 Little Wing (@clking61) reported

    @Annakhait Help cant find the Benghazi expose seal team 6 video anymore I saw it lastnight on telegram

  • DezhMaxi Max F. (@DezhMaxi) reported

    @milo4007 @signalapp YouThere and Telegram have better quality service, far away in terms of app quality as well as privacy because YouThere doesn’t collect mobile number either, it’s a SIM FREE / DATA FREE messenger
