T-Mobile has been down nation-wide, still faces outages

T-Mobile has been down for more than an hour now and according to their reps, the issue might persist longer, though nothing is sure.

There are lots of users who have noticed the outage, though their signal bars indicate the status is ok. When users try to make a call, they either hear the busy tone or get disconnected directly, which is really annoying.

Unfortunately, there is no official response from the T-Mobile team and all the information we have is from disappointed users and reps who admitted they are facing a nation-wide outage.

Hopefully they will fix the problem and let us know what happened soon enough. We will keep you updated !

Update: T-Mobile confirmed the outage. Read their statement below:

“T-Mobile customers may be experiencing service disruptions impacting voice and data. Our rapid response teams have been mobilized to restore service as quickly as possible. We will provide updates as more information is available.”

    Just drove from Corpus Christi TX to San Antonio TX, no calls possible the entire drive. Still nothing in San Antonio TX. Part of the time there were bars, but no outgoing calls possible, other times it was not even possible to register on the T-Mobile network.
    Symptoms I received in no particular order of frequency:
    - Ringing a few times then “fast busy”
    - Immediate “fast busy”
    - Dead air

    Update: From another site:
    We just got an official statement from T-Mobile, and it’s confirmed — service is down. Here’s the statement:

    “T-Mobile customers may be experiencing service disruptions impacting voice and data. Our rapid response teams have been mobilized to restore service as quickly as possible. We will provide updates as more information is available.”

    Service was down in Atlanta for over an hour but we just got calling back. Still no voice mail or in/outgoing texts however.

  43. Will says:

    Well, BlackSn0w was released today. I guess T-Mobile couldn’t handle all the people leaving AT&T. Or maybe Apple was right, jailbreak is a national security risk. Someone hack T-Mobile because someone was jailbroken! Ha

  60. Sheré says:

    In Bensalem, PA, Northeast suburb of Philadelphia, PA. My service has been out all afternoon through the evening. I am SO upset about this!! As a customer I should have received a text warning about it a few days prior. They can text me about those call tones. No calls, in or out. No text. I can’t reach T-Mobile, even on a landline!! They are HORRIBLE!!! If I wasn’t locked in this contract I’d switch to Verizon!!!!

  61. MusicFreak3690 says:

    Hey, Norcal just got service back. Ive sent a couple of txts and got a call. Not sure if its for a bit or if its fixed.

  62. Catherine says:

    My service has finally been restored (Honolulu, HI) as of 7:35pm PST. I know some folks in my area are still having problems though.

  63. Holly says:

    I’m here in Orange County, southern California with Tmobile. I can’t make or receive calls to Tmobile customers. This is not the first outage i’ve experienced with them…. About a year and half ago, towers went down and I couldn’t receive or make calls to anyone for 3 days. So I won’t be suprised if THIS outage lasts for even longer. I’m switching to another company.

  64. melissa says:

    Out in cali. So annoying especially bcause I have the sidekick.
