The 5G effectively doesn’t function in my area and hasn’t for months so I haven’t noticed. I can have 3 bars and nothing will happen, but if it falls back to LTE I can get some data exchange for a few minutes. AT&T has been broken for a while in my mind.

This needs to be Verizons commercial.

😂 I didn’t notice the last time they had a nation wide outage either.

I thought it was just me and my old iPhone, but I’ve also been having a lot of trouble connecting for the last few months. Since May, really.

Aren’t they currently having some possibly unrelated problems with a union by refusing to negotiate?

My phone hasn't been working for 6 hours now. Only wifi calling is working. Although this shit has been going like clockwork around 3pm for me everyday. I only switched to ATT since my building has ATT repeaters and it was the onlyway to male calls and use data. So it sucks ass outside of my fortress of a building.

Also reports are coming in describing the sky as having a blue color. More details as they come in! Back to you in the studio!
