As you may know by now, Econet network (and EcoCash by association) seems to have blacked out in most of the country. Those who rely on more than one network took to Twitter to vent their frustrations with the largest mobile network provider.

Econet network down in Bulawayo since about 9.50AM. When you do finally fix it @econet_support, I ask for my daily bundle back. Thanks in advance!
