T-Mobile, Sprint, AT&T and Verizon customers report widespread cell service outages

preview

T-Mobile, Sprint, AT&amp;T, Verizon and US Cellular were all reportedly down in some parts of the US, according to service tracker Down Detector. A large number of T-Mobile, Sprint, AT&amp;T and Verizon customers across the country said&nbsp;they were&nbsp;experiencing outages with their cell service Monday. According to&nbsp;, customers from across the U.S. were&nbsp;reporting problems with their service, with a large number of reports coming from major cities including Tampa, Miami, Atlanta, New York, Chicago, Houston and Los Angeles. Hundreds of comments on the website said&nbsp;customers could not place or receive calls. Users flooded T-Mobile's Twitter account to report issues with their service.&nbsp; T-Mobile's President of Technology Neville Ray addressed the outage on Twitter, writing, "Our engineers are working to resolve a voice and data issue that has been affecting customers around the country. We’re sorry for the inconvenience and hope to have this fixed shortly." A spokesperson for Verizon said, "Downdetector is falsely reporting Verizon network issues" and that the company was&nbsp;"aware that another carrier is having network issues," but comments from customers on Downdetector.com suggested that Verizon customers from Los Angeles, Denver, Philadelphia,&nbsp;Chicago and other cities&nbsp;were experiencing issues placing or receiving calls. But the Verizon spokesperson said perceived interruptions to its service could be explained by the issues&nbsp;affecting other carriers.&nbsp; "A lot of factors can contribute to a false report on a third-party website… a faulty device, network traffic that slows but doesn’t inhibit connections, commercial RF blockers, human error, network issues impacting other carriers and more," the spokesperson said. Sprint, which recently merged with T-Mobile, also appeared&nbsp;to be impacted, according to customers on Downdetector.com. US Cellular appeared to be impacted as well. Both companies did not immediately respond to a request for comment. All the news you need to know, every day By clicking Sign Up, I confirmthat I have read and agreeto the and .
