Data outage in SE USA?

Experiencing data outage on Verizon in North Carolina. No BIS service via either data or wifi. BES is working on Wifi only, but not via data. I've tried multiple battery pulls.

Anyone else in SE USA experiencing this?

Yes, our Verizon users in DC are experiencing data outages. No BBM, no PIN, BES emails not being delivered, address lookups failing, IT policy unable to be resent to devices.

BoxTone is showing high 'pending' counts for all US carriers....very very slowing going down, but have been having issues since around 7:30am Eastern.

We've had this on and off in Europe for the last 3 days. Now, I am reading that Reuters is reporting outages in South America too so maybe it is spreading.

Chattanooga seems to be having some BBM issues. Another ATT contact can receive them but my Sprint contact can't. I wouldn't think it would be carrier dependent so it must be sporatic.

No data, email, anything on Wi-Fi or not in South Alabama and NW Florida.

TnTimberry · #12 10-12-2011, 09:41 AM

SMS should work ok. It's not BIS dependant.

Central Florida is up, though I am seeing delays on BBM.

I'm on Day 3 of no web browsing in Atlanta.

I'm most frustrated because I've spent 2 days on the phone with tech support at Verizon and my company who kept telling me it wasn't related to the outages in Europe....until they changed their mind today.

No idea why my device apparently went down before others in N. America. Maybe because I was in Europe at this time last year.

But it's not just a BES issue. I'm getting all work emails. I'm not getting my personal GMails, and I cannot connect to the web. I am getting new tweets via ubersocial every 10 minutes. It's very odd.
