Verizon was down for customers in Michigan, leaving them without service for mobile phones and internet.
Local outlets reported the outage around 10am ET, saying thousands of locals have been impacted.
DownDetector, a site that monitors online glitches, showed mobile phone, 5G home internet and ‘No Signal’ are the most reported problems.
The network outage was fixed around 11:30am ET.
DownDetector showed several other states in the ‘red,’ those issues were likely people attempting to call friends and family in Michigan and are not connecting.
Users reported that their phones are in ‘SOS’ mode, which is where your phone has lost its regular cellular connection and can only make emergency calls.

Verizon did not officially acknowledged the outage, but the company’s support on X was responding to frustrated customers.
‘My Internet went out last night at 10pm wasn’t restored until 3pm. Now there’s another outage?? Out again 12:30 am on the 10th. What happened to you Verizon??’ One X user posted in the early hours of Friday.
Verizon Support responded to the post asking for more information about the issue, to which the frustrated customer said that a Verizon agent told her the outage would not be resolved for 12 to 24 hours, though this has not been confirmed.
