AT&T customers are experiencing service issues that began on Tuesday and are affecting their ability to call contacts on other carriers.
“There is a nationwide issue affecting customers’ ability to complete calls across carriers. Carriers are working as quickly as possible to diagnose and resolve this issue,” an AT&T spokesperson told FOX Business in a statement.
“At this time, 911 services nationwide are operating normally and there is no impact to customers. We are working to correct the over-the-air impact notification that was sent in error to 911 call centers,” the statement continued.

The company believes calls between AT&T customers are not affected by the service issue.
Multiple law enforcement agencies and emergency response centers across the country posted on X (formerly Twitter) that they had received contact from AT&T informing them that customers may not be able to call 911 and had been provided with alternative phone numbers to contact until service was restored.

In a statement, AT&T said the wireless impact notice was sent in error and that calls to the 9-1-1 emergency line should not be affected by the issue.
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) said in a post on X that it is “aware of reports of consumers in multiple states experiencing wireless connectivity issues and is currently investigating.”

AT&T’s service outage follows a major outage of its mobile phone network that lasted about 10 hours in February. The company said at the time that it believed the outage was “due to incorrect application and execution of processes in expanding our network, rather than a cyberattack.”

The company later announced that it would offer billing credits to customers who were or may be affected by the outages in an amount equal to the average cost of one day of service. AT&T said it would give affected customers a $5 credit for each AT&T Wireless account.
