ORIGINAL STORY [10:49 AM]:
Maxis customers have reported disruption in their service this morning. However, the reason behind the disruption and its scale is not yet known at the moment.
Nevertheless, the customer service agents of Maxis’ Twitter and Facebook pages have confirmed the disruptions and noted that the telco is already working to rectify the issue. However, as you can see from one of the replies below, the agent didn’t specify the cause of the disruption as well as any estimated time of recovery:

In Lowyat.NET HQ itself, some of us were stuck at EDGE connection while some encountered the dreaded “No Service” notice although two of our team members didn’t face any problems with their Maxis services. This disruption happened to both prepaid and postpaid customers, as far as our own observations go.
We are keeping track of the situation and will keep you posted if there is any update. So, stay tuned.
UPDATE 1 [11:30 AM]:
In a response to Lowyat.NET’s Twitter post, a Maxis customer service agent has provided an update on the situation. Seems like it going to take some time before the telco’s services are fully restored:
C3857929 : Hi, We are aware on this matter. We do have technical glitches at the moment. The restoration is still ongoing and we estimate to be resolve is within 4-6 hours. sincere apologies for the inconvenience caused. TQ-Nuha

UPDATE 2 [12:26 PM]:
Maxis has released a press statement which further confirmed the disruptions that its customers are facing at the moment. Here it is in full:
We are aware that our customers have been experiencing service disruptions. Rest assured that our team is working hard to identify and resolve the matter as soon as possible. We would like to thank our customers for their understanding and patience and apologise for the inconvenience during this time.
The same statement has also been published on its official Facebook and Twitter pages. As you may notice from the statement though, there was no mention of recovery times which seems to indicate that the telco is dealing with a major issue behind the scene.
