Frustrated internet users in the UAE took to social media to complain to Etisalat after they were unable to load websites.
Problems began shortly before 11am this morning when many websites were hit, unable to be loaded by either desktop computers, laptops or phones using hardline, wifi or 4G connections. Thankfully among the sites spared were social media which allowed users to vent their frustration.
Services of rival du seemed unaffected, with their LTE network able access sites not reachable by Etisalat customers.
Dozens of customers reached out to @Etislat_Care, the company’s twitter account for answers.
ProWebDevco tweeted: “Hey Etisalat, from nearly 20 minutes ago I can only access Facebook, Gmail and Twitter, no other webpage, what’s going on?”
Meanwhile a frustrated @ARahmanMahgoub sent: “Can you read me? Internet is down, and your 101 line is down as well? Shouldn’t we get an update on this?” That was echooed by @omkarudas who said: “Want to tell us what the internet issue is and how long will it take to fix.”
After more than an hour Etisalat finally answered on twitter saying: “Our customers faced some difficulty in the use of Internet in some areas for a period of approximately 20 minutes as a result of a technical problem that has been solved and services have been resumed since. We apologise for the inconvenience caused.”

liverpool youngsters
Ki-Jana Hoever
The only one of this squad to have scored for Liverpool, the versatile Dutchman impressed on his debut at Wolves in January. He can play right-back, centre-back or in midfield.
Herbie Kane
Not the most prominent H Kane in English football but a 21-year-old Bristolian who had a fine season on loan at Doncaster last year. He is an all-action midfielder.
Luis Longstaff
Signed from Newcastle but no relation to United’s brothers Sean and Matty, Luis is a winger. An England Under-16 international, he helped Liverpool win the FA Youth Cup last season.
Yasser Larouci
An 18-year-old Algerian-born winger who can also play as a left-back, Larouci did well on Liverpool’s pre-season tour until an awful tackle by a Sevilla player injured him.
Adam Lewis
Steven Gerrard is a fan of his fellow Scouser, who has been on Liverpool’s books since he was in the Under-6s, Lewis was a midfielder, but has been converted into a left-back.
