So Soon? WhatsApp Ends Support For Some Blackberry Devices Before The Deadline Date

I was so shocked as WhatsApp has ends support or stops working for some/all BlackBerry device ahead of the june 12, 2017 deadline. Thousands of people were complaining this morning that WhatsApp has stopped working on their phone.

The message sent to them was like this below;

You can't send messages to this chat because WhatsApp no longer supports this phone"

I can still recall that after the warning to end whatsapp on Blackberry device on December 31st of 2016, it was later prosponed to June 12, 2017 which is the deadline date. It so unfortunate that WhatsApp has started ending Support for blackberry devices from January 18 which is today.

Do you also experience this issue? What's the model of your BlackBerry and is the WhatsApp still working?
