Verizon finally coughed up some cash after bricking phones nationwide. The carrier plans on dropping a twenty-dollar credit to subscribers impacted when service vanished across the United States. Messages will go out soon instructing regular users to claim funds via the myVerizon application. Business accounts are getting contacted separately regarding their specific compensation details.
This payout is actually quadruple the five bucks AT&T handed out during an earlier failure. Verizon claims this amount covers service costs for several days. Management insists this money merely acknowledges wasted time rather than fully fixing the disaster.
Connectivity died completely for many users. Apple iPhones displayed strictly SOS status indicators, usually seen only in dead zones. While T-Mobile and AT&T appeared down initially because people could not call Verizon numbers, they later clarified their systems worked fine.
Service restoration took quite a while to kick in fully. Anyone still seeing connection weirdness should reboot their gear immediately.
