T-Mobile was also trending on Twitter Tuesday afternoon, with many users turning to the social media platform to see if anyone else was encountering similar issues.
T-Mobile did not address the reports on social media or via release and did not immediately respond to Entrepreneur’s request for comment.
Just last week a major outage hit T-Mobile users when many were receiving error messages that said “LG IMS has stopped,” primarily affecting LG phones on the T-Mobile network, essentially shutting down service for users using certain phones on the network.
The error has since been resolved after a Reddit thread explained to users how to play with their phone settings and fix the bug.
T-Mobile was down around 6% year over year near market close on Tuesday.
