The X account for the University of Pittsburgh Police Department wrote: “Verizon Outage: There is a known wireless carrier service issue in our area. During wireless service outages, be sure to follow our social media accounts and check out our alerts page and your Pitt email for any emergency notifications.”
Verizon users have also taken to X to vent their frustration and one wrote; “I pay way too much money for Verizon to have network outages, this damn much,” whilst another said: “@Verizon got issues this morning. Can’t stay connected on calls… even on wi-fi. And network registration keeps going up and down."
