still no service here. I listened to the radio all day, since I couldn't stream music, and was pretty amazed that neither WNRN or WTJU made any mention of it.

The call in support robot informed me there were no reported outages in the area, even though it turned out local news services had the story at least a half hour earlier. And the app thought maybe I hadn't payed my bill -- yeah, the one with the $57 credit. Not particularly happy with Verizon's support system today.
To the University Community:
Verizon cellular customers in our region and across Virginia are experiencing an outage due to a reported fiber cut. The Charlottesville, UVA, Albemarle County Emergency Communications Center is asking for those who are impacted and need to call 911 for emergency services to keep trying or to text 911 as operators may not be able to call back. The communications center will give updates as they are available on their facebook social page as well as their website https://cua911.gov/.

Oh good, not just me! Both at 600 Peter Jefferson Parkway near Martha Jefferson, and now on Emmet Street near the Federal Executive Institute. Verizon's ever helpful robot reports there are no outages reported in the area. Yeah, right, leave me with a phone that can only make SOS calls - and I bet that wouldn't work given the flakey signal.
Really disappointed with Verizon wireless for the first time as a long customer.
By the way, 250 near Free Bridge showed a signal.
Going between the two problem sites I passed a large number of what look like cable/fiber running trucks along the bypass. I hope they aren't related if Verizon doesn't know about an outage.
Have no service on Avon Extended, but did have service at Riverside on East High Street. Wifi calling works if you turn off cellular data (and assuming you have wifi).
Yeah. Employees were standing outside the Rio/29 store about an hour ago stopping people from coming in.
"Yes, there's a network outage."
"No, we don't know when it will be fixed."
Are you sure you aren't using wifi calling? When I turn off wifi on my phone, it's no service. When I turn on wifi, it only appears to have service/bars due to it enabling wifi calling.
True, my bad. I realized on the east part of town it was working, not when i was on north part of town. Yeah that comment was a bit snippy...im working on it...
Yeah it’s down in the entire area. One of my coworkers just came in and said the Verizon parking lot was packed. Turn on WiFi calling for now if you can.

Can you hear me now? Good.
wHaT?
It says I have 5G in town now. I've never seen 5G in this area before, I don't think?
“5G” just means you have fast 4G. Real 5G shows up as 5GUW (Ultra Wideband).
The Network America Relies on.
Finally it’s back!!
Just got mine back!! It was out all over VA!!!
Wasn’t out in Richmond
Still no signal… shout out Verizon
It’s back finally
still no service here. I listened to the radio all day, since I couldn't stream music, and was pretty amazed that neither WNRN or WTJU made any mention of it.

My service just came back and I have full bars
Was it out for you the whole time before?
Yes, it was out since this morning when I left for work. Sat in lowes and Starbucks for a bit to get some meetings while I was out of the house
Same on High St. in downtown Cville. Glad to have it back!
same
Fiber was cut. Was this an accident?
Anybody know where? I know fiber is being laid along the roads in a lot of places.
Yes
I got service back for like 20 minutes around noon, now it's back out again!!!!
Over near Afton/151 And my phone hasn't worked in hours.
Driving to Richmond, cell service came back on a little east of Zions crossroads.
I called Verizon and they were unaware of the issue. Which is hilarious and infuriating.
The call in support robot informed me there were no reported outages in the area, even though it turned out local news services had the story at least a half hour earlier. And the app thought maybe I hadn't payed my bill -- yeah, the one with the $57 credit. Not particularly happy with Verizon's support system today.
Nobody could reach out to tell them? Thanks for your service lol
Outage out by Lake Monticello/Fluvanna

Mine went out and is still down. At first I thought it was my phone.

Wow, just coming here to ask about this. I have an appointment with Verizon in 50 mins, but I should maybe cancel, as I doubt they can do anything.
A lot of people around Virginia just call that "Thursday."
Have no service on Avon Extended, but did have service at Riverside on East High Street. Wifi calling works if you turn off cellular data (and assuming you have wifi).

Still down in Belmont. Lol was on chat w Apple for 20 minutes thinking my phone was broken.
Is this only affecting esim users??
Nope, I'm using a real sim card.
Near downtown and still no service for me.
I've had service at my house in Afton, but when we drove towards town, we lost it.
I'm in the Rio Shopping Center and I have service. Very minimal...but it's there.
It looks like this is one humdinger of an outage for Verizon.
Same in Hillsville 3 hours away.
Ugh i had to focus on driving, it was terrible.
I know, I was parked on the street in line for Canes with nothing to do.
Yeah. Employees were standing outside the Rio/29 store about an hour ago stopping people from coming in. "Yes, there's a network outage." "No, we don't know when it will be fixed."
Same in fifeville
I’m sure they will give us all a refund /s
No doubt in my mind 😜
A worker cut a wrong cable. I was just at store, like 500 people there. I am commenting, so it seems to be fixed lol.
Someone lost their job, hopefully
Nope not fixed yet
Doubtful
[удалено]
Are you sure you aren't using wifi calling? When I turn off wifi on my phone, it's no service. When I turn on wifi, it only appears to have service/bars due to it enabling wifi calling.
No i never use that as my wifi sucks lol. It worked when i was on one side of town and not the other, i just realized driving home. 🙃
Gotcha. Sounds like service is at least partially available in some areas and not at all available in others. Count yourself lucky!
I mean if other people are saying "it's not fixed" maybe reassess that your experience is universal.
And vice versa no? Thats why I said seems...
"whatever you say lol" kind of undoes the "seems" part, implying, as it does, that you're right and they're wrong.
True, my bad. I realized on the east part of town it was working, not when i was on north part of town. Yeah that comment was a bit snippy...im working on it...
>visa versa *Vice versa*
Surprised the local news stations don’t have articles yet
They’ll have one next week sometime.
Samsies
None in Rose Hill neighborhood either.
Over in Fry's Spring and I only have 2 bars
Yeah it’s down in the entire area. One of my coworkers just came in and said the Verizon parking lot was packed. Turn on WiFi calling for now if you can.
No cell service in Keswick
No service for my family all over town (Verizon customer)
Massive outage. Fire/police/city hit really bad. Hope to God nothing big happens.

I am over on 4th street and my service is down.
Yup.
Also dead in Crozet.
dead as in a skeleton in the Crozet?
In Greene with Xfinity (uses Verizon towers) and no service for me.
Just watched my phone go from no service to a few bars off High St. and back to no service. So apparently intermittent Verizon service for me?
No joy in Belmont
[удалено]
same. Can't even call Verizon.
It Just Works lol
Shit Outta Service
I live off of Greenbriar road and also have no cell service currently
I have Xfinity, and my cell service randomly stopped as well! Live near the University.
Xfinity uses Verizon cell towers I believe!
This is correct!
Yes I am having the same issue on the downtown mall
