Verizon Issues in Baltimore / D.C. Metro area
Reported by: Grant Kissel <cybergek@gmail.com>
VZW is currently experiencing issues registering on RIM network with data connectivity and activations, Verizon stated that they were having some “server issues.” Have contacted our Vz rep to try and get a better ETA.
Edit: This appears to be a Northeast problem as we’re getting reports from people up and down the Northeast that they are experiencing the same issues.
Edit: This appears to be more widespread then we had thought, it appears that it’s nationwide. Keep the comments coming in so we can update this as needed.
