Countrywide wireless outage affecting some Rogers customers’ ability to place, receive calls

Rogers Communications customers may be experiencing difficulties making phone calls Sunday evening as the company works to repair a countrywide wireless outage.

A post on the Rogers website says a national outage of the company’s wireless service is causing some customers to report difficulties placing and receiving calls.

Others may be experiencing dropped calls.

“Some of our wireless customers on 2G or 3G networks may experience an intermittent interruption to voice services,” the company said in a statement emailed to Global News.

While the website does not include an estimated time of repair, the company says teams are “working hard to address the interruption as quickly as possible.”

Talk about a non story... you know how few clients are even on the 3G much less 2G networks these days?

I had trouble with dropped calls and unable to connect yesterday afternoon. I had several people to call and a short window to do it in, so it was really annoying.

They’ll figure it out.
Rogers is the best.

Best time to ask for some credits for lost service

Bell and Freedom had problems as well

It isn't being called such, but this sounds like a massive cyber attack against the entire country.

I don't think there's a best. They each have their problems. One thing if for sure, Rogers sucks in cottage country. Doesn't matter where I go, whether it's the Kawarthas or Muskoka, my friends with Bell have way better coverage. I don't know how many times I've been told the same thing, regardless of where I go. "Rogers doesn't work in the cottage etc. Try standing on the dock."

As an observation, we were up in Pinawa Manitoba a number of years back, and the service was acceptable with Rogers.

I'm not saying Rogers has bad reception everywhere. Just more often than not, when we have poor service, people around us on Bell don't to have the same problem. And it's not a device issue either.

Nope
Rogers and Freedom (remember Freedom is ROAMING on Rogers) were the only carriers with issues

Bell + Telus were fine (unless they dialed someone on Rogers network)
