In a surprising turn of events, Blinkit, Zomato’s 10-minute grocery delivery platform, has experienced a technical glitch, rendering the app unusable for customers across India. The abrupt outage has left users in major cities like New Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Kolkata, and others frustrated, unable to access the swift delivery service they rely on.
Upon attempting to launch the Blinkit app, users are met with an error message stating, “Currently unavailable,” and another variant that reads, “Something has gone wrong! Kindly give it another go.” Zomato, the parent company, took to social media to address the issue, with a statement expressing apologies for the inconvenience and assuring users that their technical team is working tirelessly to restore normalcy.
On various social media platforms, users have been quick to share their experiences and frustrations. One user humorously tweeted, “Ppl enquire abt insta down, fb down, twitter down… first time came across someone enquiring abt blinkit down.” Another user, possibly in jest, linked the app’s outage to Valentine’s Day, stating, “Blinkit down on Valentine’s day big day for scorpios.”
Despite the uproar on social media, Zomato has not issued an official statement regarding the technical issue. However, the app seems to be back in operation, providing relief to users who depend on its swift grocery delivery services.
