We're currently investigating reports of routing problems to some destinations.
Resolution: BGP is used on the internet to exchange where to route IP addresses. Messages are constantly sent between routers to update this routing information. Today, some of our routers had failed to properly update their routing information which in turn caused routing to some destinations not to work.

MINOR Closed SMS
AFFECTED
SMS
STARTED
Jul 24, 09:00 AM (3 months ago)
CLOSED
Jul 29, 09:25 AM (3 months ago)
DESCRIPTION
A planned change internal to the carrier we use for much of our incoming SMS services had an unexpected and undetected side effect. This meant some incoming SMS were not processed and did not get to us. The undelivered messages were rejected, which would usually have resulted in them being resent, or the sender advised of non delivery. However, reports from customers indicate that the sender was not made aware and messages were lost. The issue was resolved Monday morning.
Resolution: The issue was identified by the carrier and rectified. The carrier is improving processes and monitoring to ensure this type issue is detected much more quickly should it ever happen in future.
