East Coast Kimmy 1080 Report post Posted April 19, 2021 (edited) Woke up this morning to an unusually quiet phone this has affected my personal and work phone down here in NS - they are saying it’s a nationwide issue with FIDO & ROGERS Wondering how many people are being interrupted by this technical issue & how far spread we are? https://www.google.ca/amp/s/www.cbc.ca/amp/1.5992954 Hoping it returns soon! Totally grateful it hasn’t affected my wifi at least 😂 Edited April 19, 2021 by East Coast Kimmy 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure how much of that is true. That is something I can totally believe 🙊 there’s multiple outages reported mainly from Rogers but I’ve spoke to people from various companies who experienced brief outages. a friend of mine in Scarborough had said a local news outlet put out a story saying it may have been due to protests taking place in Ontario and Quebec they created the “shutdown” in services. Not sure how true that is either but definitely could be possible 🤷🏼♀️ I would assume they would have shut down the wifi towers at the same time but what do I know 😝 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
