Love you dad
Could of been all those Biden phones handed out to the 10 million illegal immigrants calling home to 172 different countries your tax dollars at work
DNBC news what non partisan news source do recommend people watch to hear all the news you try to suppress? Whats the latest on the border , the illegals increasing crime, the biden investigation, your boys mental state etc etc. Youre really not fooling anyone, we know who you work for. No use for partisan corp media in America, although it is effective in communist countries.
You know how much ATT gives to MSNBC every year? No American will know the truth until its to late
Can you hear me now? I bet they hired someone who "Identifies" as a software geek who botched their job cuz…only qualified tecs should be hired by the color of their skin. They come in all colors and male OR female genders too! Hire a qualified candidate today!๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ to avoid a disaster later๐ฎ
That's big Tech for y'all… testing their perimeters like a transgender I said velociraptor…๐ฏ Fact and checked out centuries ago… HAKUNA MATATA ๐ฝ๐๐๐ ๐คซ Jesus Christ ๐คซ
Ok so I realize this isn't convenient: have each family member on a different network. Know where the nearest landline is. You're welcome.
I had AT&T when it was the only exclusive carrier to have the iPhone back in 2008 . Calls would drop consistently when I lived in downtown Philadelphia in 2008 . Iโm glad I left that carrier a long time ago ๐
This is why they need to bring landlines back
aren't 911 calls routed thru other carriers network to go thru if your carrier is down?
Where's that big fat FCC fine I wanna hear about?
And, no, this doesn't look like an outside intrusion on the network, just good ol' American inept network engineering.
How many others had there iphone shut down and lock them out. Mine did the morning of the outage. I was already in the phone and it just shut off on its own. I didn't exceed keypad typing because I never could do it once it shut itself down. Once signal was restored I have it but still locked out. My wake up alarm is going off and I can't shut it off. I'm borrowing a phone to say all of this.
Google voice and email are good alternatives…
If they admit to hack they open door to many dumping carriers,media covering wake up folks on America affected it wasnt weather
First Verizon now AT&T. Odd. Very odd.
Buy long range two way radios folks
This is why they need to bring back the copper landline mandate. Copper land lines are extremely reliable and donโt go out like the cell phones to. Ironically AT&T is the most aggressive at decommissioning there copper landline network. Digital home phone services rely on the Internet, so those Are not reliable either. There needs to be a bill or law past that mandates that telephone companies provide telephone service over analog copper land lines.
Lesson that we rely on tech too much๐
Man I was texting and on instagram like no problem. Next
This is why I DONT SUPPORT ONE COMPANY OWNING EVERYTHING IN THE FUTURE
Solar flare
Really how stupid are you! This is a friggin wake up call?! Putin and the many others are hacking! Itโs a cyber attack!,
PUTIN!
My phone was fine ๐
What about Verizon and T-Mobile? I have Verizon, and I did not notice any outage today.
it was a ufo that did that
Ok in Mexico. No land lines.
Watch bank accounts.
Whew… That was a close one. I thought AT&T had surely ripped me off…. again.
There way for you to pay more land line and cell
AT&T must be republicans
I noticed because I was about to start my doordash service and phone was no working. So, I went home to read. ๐
We need to bring back wall phones, land lines from 90's, they were simply to use and no towers needed, old will soon become new again if this keeps happening with this modern day technology.
It's 2024 so the blame has to lie at the feet of DEI and/or migrants, right? ๐ค๐ค
Other company that part with AT&T like cricket wireless, FirstNet, etc, also were down as well. I noticed some other companies were down as well, but not as bad as AT&T.
Trial run for something bigger and far more sinister, possibly? Or do we believe the "solar flare" story? Hmm. Anyways, I'm sure our trusty media will get to the bottom of this story and that both AT&T and the government will at all times tell us the precise unfiltered unvarnished truth. LOL.
me having just switched to xfinity yesterday to lower my bill and avoiding this mess LOL
