A Telefonica breakdown this Monday, March 13, is affecting hundreds of users in the capital of Lanzarote.

The problem has affected different businesses that depend on the internet for their operation, such as banks, ATMs, lottery administrations, among others. Pharmacies have also had difficulties dispensing their medicines with electronic prescriptions.

The breakdown has also caused Radio Lanzarote-Onda Cero to be unable to transmit the morning programs over the internet and has had to do so only in analog.

Currently the problem continues to affect the center of Arrecife and it is unknown at the moment when citizens will be able to reconnect to the internet.
