Confirming Rogers/Fido down for everyone???

[Travis Munroe]

I spent the last hour trying a million resets and have seen 1 facebook post of someone else having a issue. Is it true everyone is down nationwide?

What a PITA if so but a sigh of relief knowing I dont have to buy a new phone!

[Mazrim]

I haven't been able to call or text for a while, but data has been working.

[photon]

Huh, yeah can't make a call. Data works tho. On Fido.

[KTrain]

Yeah, me too.

Now my wife is going to want to set up our landline again. I can already hear all the "what if" scenarios she's going to present me during the argument.

[EYE_Overstand]

My phone is not making any calls

[Super-Rye]

Cant make calls or send texts either with Fido. Data works as well.

[BlackArcher101]

Ah this makes sense now. I thought my phone crapped out as for some reason I got less than 50% of my typical battery life today. Must have been a coincidence.

[RedMileDJ]

I'm having issues dialing out. I'm on Telus Mobility. I can take calls. I also tried calling someone in BC on a Rogers cell...just went straight to VM or hung up.

[pylon]

It is nationwide. So much for that heart attack I was planning tonight.

"Canada's most reliable network"

Hasn't there been a plethora of Roger's down threads over the past couple years?

[Acey]

My data is working, that's a bigger concern for me... unless I need 911 services in the next few hours.

[BlackArcher101]

Looks to be back up now.

[puckluck2]

Still down for me.

Who makes calls nowadays anyway?

It's all about the text for me.

When a buddy calls me, I'm like "why the fata couldn't you just text?"

[Regulator75]

Text is working.

[Northendzone]

The calgary herald is running this as a breaking news story.......that is enough confirmation for me.....

[Shaggin Wagon]

@cityofedmonton tweeted @CityofEdmonton: People experiencing wireless outages with Rogers or Fido who need emergency services can use other means to call 9-1-1 such as landlines

The twitterverse then proceeded to roast the city of Edmonton's twitter feed. These are the two of the better ones.

@CityofEdmonton really? Thanks tips. #whohasalandlinethesedays

@CityofEdmonton that's not ok.

[Kiran403]

My data is working and I made a call although it took longer to connect.

[Bill Bumface]

I bailed out my buddy with my landline yesterday. I then ran the math. I'm sititng about $200/call.

Totally worth it.
