Default AT&T cell phone users without service this morning

Just got off the phone with AT&T and they put me on hold for 20mins, then hung me up! I raised hell when I called again, they told me there's a statewide outage in Hawaii and I got a $25 credit for being hung up on

How has THIS affected your day?

In cases like this with AT & T it helps to have a back up cell service with VERIZON.....

So that is what it was. It didn't really affect me as I was sleeping most of the time. I was just wondering why my phone couldn't connect to the data, then I saw I had no service, then I went back to sleep

You and me both....we were in the dark as well...there was a little short black out at around 7:40 pm that lasted only a few seconds.....then about 15 minutes later....complete blackout for about 45 minutes.

I think it was the Salt Lake air. George was able to make/receive phone calls, txt msgs, but wasn't able to receive emails. In Aiea, I was the opposite, I could use Wi-Fi to get emails, but my phone was completely down, no voice, txt, no nothing.
