AT&T reporting 'nationwide' outage as customers report issues across US

AT&T confirmed Tuesday afternoon that customers are experiencing "nationwide" issue, with many AT&T users reporting they could not contact non-AT&T account holders.

"The carriers are working as quickly as possible to diagnose and resolve the issue," an AT&T spokesperson shared with USA TODAY.

AT&T customers are still able to make calls between other AT&T customers and make 9-1-1 calls, the company said.

The number of customers affected but the outage is unclear but reports of outages or disruptions to AT&T customers has steadily increased since 1 p.m. ET, according to Downdetector.

We use AT&T. I was in the middle of a National Forest most of yesterday and had connectivity the entire time. I've been real happy with the company's infrastructure, especially when traveling.
