It's weird, my service has been dead, but my wife's is just fine. So it doesn't seem to be a geographical issue.

I was told when this happened with ATT a few weeks ago that the account owners phone was fucked and all the sub accounts were good plus business accounts were unexpected.

I lost coverage for 5 hours on my personal ATT phone but I was able to use my work ATT phone to call my wife.

Same. My wife has service, but I do not.

Do you both have the same type of phone?

I've heard it might be due to physical sim versus e-sim. Is that the case for you?

Edit: apparently nvm on that but it should be back up soon. Try airplane mode on/off like every half hour

My brother was having the same issue. He could call people just fine while his girlfriend couldn't. He discovered that he can't call anyone that has an iPhone and they can't call anyone else.

my wife and I both have iPhones. I have no service at all, hers seems to be fine.
