@Verizon @VerizonSupport How much longer? You’re not even updating your page about the outage! Do you even care that thousands of customers have no service right now?

@Verizon gonna post anything about this outage? Any ETA on a fix? Had to come to this hell site to see that others are having problems, no issues reported or news anywhere else yet. And it's only Androids?

It would be nice to tell everyone you have a nationwide outage instead of everyone having to drive to every fucking Verizon location

The last major Verizon occurred last summer, and lasted for several hours.

You can still reportedly answer many of your functions through WiFi.

Are you experiencing an outage? Let me know in the comments.
