While T-Mobile/Sprint has acknowledged the issue, Verizon is denying it, according to Fox 5 DC. The carrier says that Downdetector is wrong, and that it knows that another carrier is having issues.
Obviously, it"s too early to know exactly what"s wrong or when it will be fixed, but you can be sure that a problem on this scale is being handled as swiftly as possible.
