If you’re using Celcom and facing issues with mobile data and voice calls, you’re not alone. It appears that there’s a network disruption at the moment which causes some devices to show “no signal” or “emergency calls only” status.
Celcom has acknowledged the technical issue which affects their voice and data services in certain areas nationwide. According to the blue telco, their technical team is working hard to resolve and restore its services as soon as possible.
Customers in some areas nationwide may find their voice and data services experience affected due to a technical issue we are facing right now. Our technical team is working hard to resolve this issue and restore services as soon as possible.
