If you have Verizon on your phone, you must have gone through the no-service outage as well. The shocking nationwide outage affecting Verizon customers has caused widespread frustration across the United States, leaving thousands without mobile service and demanding refunds from the telecom giant.
After the disruption began on Wednesday, reports of phones switching to an 'SOS' mode and users being unable to make calls, send texts or access mobile data came out immediately.
