*** begin quote ***

  • Verizon is experiencing a significant service outage today.
  • Other services, including AT&T and T-Mobile, have seen smaller but still significant upticks in outage reports on Downdetector.
  • Verizon has said it’s working on a fix for its own service issues today.

*** end quote ***

​I have a second phone on Google Fi, which basically costs nothing if not used.

“3 is 2! 2 is 1! 1 is none! Look for redundant capability; not redundant gear!” — a disaster recovery adage

Just an FYI.
