Bumped a different thread not realizing it wasn't on ILE.
Apparently a nationwide outage right now. My phone has been on "SOS" for the last half hour or so (at least since I first noticed).

No problems with Verizon voice or data service in my part of Georgia

No problem for me, but my wife is impacted. (She's at home, I'm in the office a few miles away.)

Yeah, seems inconsistent, but reports from all over the country.

my phone is still working, but visiting relatives have 3 phones on SOS (Apple and Android). they stopped in the very busy Verizon store and word was they expect it back up in a couple hours.

Mine is still in "SOS", sounds like Verizon is spinning a little on this. They are telling people "all carriers" are facing the same issue, but at least one of them (AT&T) has come out to say, "uh, no, we're good".

Was just reading about how Verizon is setting up temporary cell towers in North Carolina to try and give people service, so that seems like bad timing.

Yeah, that's what I keep thinking about. Like I'm just mildly inconvenienced, but thinking of folks in the Southeast that just may finally have gotten some cell service back only for Verizon to shit the bed.

Was out for like 4 hours for me today, my neighbor was unaffected at all lol.Going for a walk in Santa Monica noticed cops outside a Verizon store with coplights on, can only imagine someone just fucking RAGED at the hapless clerks in there
