Every network will have its issues eventually. It is what it is.

every network will have outages but att suffered outages yesterday in 7 (SEVEN) states! thats insane. that would never happen to verizon. they said the reason was because of a power failure at a plant or something, VZW has battery backup and generaters at nearly every cell site. so this wouldnt of happened even close to as widespread on the network

Hahaha, i can see the headlines, "AT&T goes under, 70 million people loose iPhone coverage. That one guy who didn't get an iPhone also can't make calls"

I don't have at&t, I have Verizon and I am tired of all these Verizon Fanboys claiming that nothing like this would ever happen to Verizon. All weekend long here in Ohio my service with Verizon was sketchy at best. I wasn't receiving phone calls and it was taking upwards of 6 hours for people to receive my text messages. I was also being told that when people called me they were getting "your call cannot be completed as dialed messages"....I of course called Verizon and got their famous response...."we don't show any problems...*228 your phone and that will fix everything!"

Really? I believe you are an ATT fanboy. I live and work in central ohio. Are you familiar with Columbus. If so why dont you stop by my store on Sawmill Rd in Dublin and we will see whats going on with your phone. There was an issue Friday I believe or maybe Saturday. Days are kinda blurring together and I cant wait till the holidays are over. At any point the closest tower to the Dublin, Worthington and Delaware area was out of commission for roughly 6 hrs. One of the cable companies cut a fiber optic cable to the tower and it was out of commission instantly. Service was very weak due to the fact the only towers you could pull in were very distant. For whatever reason when i first called in to customer care I got the call center in California and they had no idea what was going on and as i was on the phone i got an email about it. Other than that I have been all the way up to Tiffin( by sandusky) and all the down to Amanda which is kinda halfway between columbus and athens within the last week and almost never have a weak signal. It very well can be the devise

First off I am not an at&t fanboy....and I live in Columbus so I am very familiar with it! Secondly, I have already been to the store at Polaris and they claim there is nothing they can do...yet when people are still calling me they are still getting the "your call cannot be completed as dialed" message! Just because you seem to have awesome coverage on your phone doesn't mean all of you customers do!

dude when people call you and you have no service it would go to voicemail.. not as you say "your call did not go thru". when i went swimming with my phone while it was in my pocket (on mistake) if someone called it would go to voicemail. at least that what happens with me :-) i'm guessing it has to do with their phones or idk what.

sorry shawn but we have had perfect coverage in the state of Ohio, no network issues , no data issues. You might want to get your phone checked out, because it wasnt the network .

sorry godfather, shawn is right we did have network issues in ohio last week. Don't speak unless you know what you're speaking about. "it is better to be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt." OH SNAP

Godfather thinks he is a VZW exec some times so it does not surprise me that he was wrong...

And how do you guys seem to think you know anything? Since I reside and work out of this area, I would think my info to be reliable. And since our network status was 99.98% in the entire state of Ohio for the entire month, even during the inclimate weather, I would say Mayday is just trying to egg something on. What type of NITa issues did we have? What exactly was the loss and what area was it reported in? Silence is golden....thats a better quote.
