Telecommunications
AT&T
found
itself
trending
on
X
after
reports
came
forth
that
the
company
has
been
bombarded
by
outages
across
the
United
States.
On
X,
those
who
have
been
affected
by
the
outage
have
made
several
comments
with
some
among
them
being
filled
with
humor.
As
seen
on
CNBC,
the
reports
of
the
AT&T
outage
cropped
up
early
Thursday
morning
(Feb.
22)
with
some
70,000
customers
across
the
United
States
complaining
of
a
lack
of
service.
This
included
major
city
centers
that
were
without
emergency
services.
In
response
to
the
outage,
AT&T
put
out
the
following
statement
to
the
outlet:
“Some
of
our
customers
are
experiencing
wireless
service
interruptions
this
morning,”
AT&T
said
in
a
statement
to
CNBC.
“Our
network
teams
took
immediate
action
and
so
far
three-quarters
of
our
network
has
been
restored.
We
are
working
as
quickly
as
possible
to
restore
service
to
remaining
customers.”
It
appears
that
service
is
slowly
returning
for
some
customers
but
many
online
say
that
they
are
still
unable
to
access
the
service.
It
hasn’t
been
reported
why
the
outage
took
place
As
a
result,
the
company’s
name
and
the
hashtag
#outage
have
been
trending
all
morning
with
a
barrage
of
comments
from
all
sides.
Some
customers
are
demanding
credit
while
some
are
questioning
why
some
calls
are
still
making
it
through.
We’ve
got
