Verizon, a major mobile service provider, is currently experiencing a widespread service disruption across the United States.
The issue, which began around 2 pm on Friday, initially had limited reports but has since garnered thousands of complaints from users unable to use their smartphones.
Impacts on Both iPhone and Android Users
The outage is not selective and is affecting users of both iPhone and Android devices. Reports indicate widespread issues with cellular services, encompassing data, voice, and text functionalities.
Verizon’s official dashboard acknowledges the problem, stating, ‘Data, voice, and text are limited. There is a known issue, and we are working on a solution.’
Extent of Impact Uncertain
Verizon, boasting over 143 million users in the US, is currently unable to specify the exact number of customers impacted by this Friday’s outage.
Downdetector, a platform monitoring online service issues, highlights concentrated service disruptions in areas such as Omaha, San Diego, Portland, Phoenix, and Louisville.
Response and Assistance
Despite the service disruption, Verizon has not yet addressed the situation on its social media platforms. However, affected customers are encouraged to check the status of their location’s service on Verizon’s official dashboard.
As the situation unfolds, users are advised to stay tuned for updates from Verizon regarding the ongoing efforts to resolve the widespread service outage.
