Verizon service outage across the USA

Verizon is facing a service outage across the USA, affecting data, voice, and texting services. Users are reportedly getting no signal on their phones. Verizon has not acknowledged the outage yet and has not provided any reasoning or solutions.

It appears that Verizon is suffering from a nationwide outage. Several users have reported getting no signal on their phones, with error messages of No service, SOS only, and Emergency calls only.

DownDetector indicates that Verizon customers across the USA are suffering from network issues. Verizon MVNOs are also affected.

The majority of reports are from the East Coast along New York, but there are plenty from other regions, Dallas, Houston, and even on the West Coast, with San Francisco and Los Angeles being affected.

Users on X and Reddit are reporting service issues in their region, too. However, Verizon Support on X has not acknowledged the issue so far. Curiously, Verizon’s network status check only lets users check for their location. We can see that data, voice, and text services are limited in some regions, namely Houston, Dallas, Chicago, Los Angeles, and Seattle, among others. However, Verizon’s service check does not report any issues for San Francisco, Washington, New York, and Boston, which is at odds with the reports we are seeing online.

Some users have gotten back service, but only LTE for now. Still, getting back some functionality is a much-appreciated reprieve. 5G services continue to remain affected.

As a plausible solution, we recommend cycling airplane mode on and off to see if your phone can connect to Verizon’s network towers again.

This is a developing story. We will be adding in more details. Please check back again in some time. Comments
