Verizon had a very eventful August, thanks mainly to the unpopular decision to cut loyalty discounts. The company had to resort to damage control by offering new discounts instead of the old ones, but some customers felt tricked into accepting lower discounts. If you were willing to look past all of this, the carrier just bounced back after a rough weekend where it suffered a service outage.
Verizon shared that “an isolated number” of its customers had experienced a service disruption on Saturday afternoon and evening, caused by a “software-related issue.” The company affirms that service was restored later in the day. However, if any users are still experiencing any issues, Verizon advises them to restart their device, which should activate service immediately.
