AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon users hit by massive cellular outage in US — as one carrier reveals cause

MELISSA KOENIG & KATHERINE DONLEVY for NEW YORK POST

A major cellphone outage affected users across the US early Thursday — even stopping some police departments from being able to receive 911 calls.

AT&T seemed to have experienced the largest number of issues, with nearly 32,000 reports at around 4:30 a.m., according to data from DownDetector, which tracks outages by collating status reports from sources including user-submitted errors on its platform.

More than 800 service outages were also reported on T-Mobile and Verizon, although a spokesperson for the latter put it down to users reporting problems trying to call people with other services.

The number of outages from AT&T peaked at 31,931 at around 4:30 a.m. ET, according to Downdetector.com.It took more than 13 hours for AT&T to resolve the issue, which the company chalked up to a system overwhelm.

“Based on our initial review, we believe that today’s outage was caused by the application and execution of an incorrect process used as we were expanding our network, not a cyberattack,” the company said in a statement.

“We are continuing our assessment of today’s outage to ensure we keep delivering the service that our customers deserve.”

Others reported issues on smaller carriers, including Boost Mobile, Consumer Cellular, Straight Talk Wireless and Cricket Wireless, the latter of which is owned by AT&T.
