[Resolved] Megathread: Public Mobile Data Issues

Hi Community, 

We are aware that some of our customers have been experiencing data-related issues. Our teams are actively investigating intermittent data issues affecting some customers.

If you are having problems connecting to your mobile data services, try one of the following steps to restore data:

  • Toggle Airplane mode ON, wait 30 seconds, and switch it back off
  • Restart your device

In many cases, these steps will restore your connection temporarily at least. Until the issue is resolved, you may need to repeat them periodically.

Rest assured, our internal team is working to get this resolved as soon as possible and we’ll share any updates when we have them here.

Update 1 (4:14pm ET, May 27): Thank you for providing your examples, our network team is continuing to work towards a resolution. We don't require any further examples, and will provide all new updates in this post, as soon as they become available.

Update 2 (2:09pm ET, May 28): Thank you for your patience as our teams have worked to restore services to their normal state. At this time, your service should once again be functioning normally. Please follow the steps listed above (airplane mode on/off, restart your device), to restore your service.

  • Time that the issue began: Afternoon of Monday May 25th
  • Your location: Calgary Alberta and surrounding areas
  • Is the issue intermittent or persistent: When data works it is slow, but data access is intermittent since toggling between airplane mode seems to get data to work

Having issues for 3-4 days now, Charlottetown PE. Intermittent, happens randomly and I have to restart my phone to fix it.

Started earlier this week. It was intermittent. A phone restart or switching network mode from Gobal/LTE only to LTE/HSPA/GSM would help. 

As of the time of writing this, the issue is persistent. 

Location, all across Kitchener-Waterloo. Did not help when I drove across from Kitchener Downtown to Waterloo, St Jacobs and back. 

Phone signal bars appear normal. 

Phone reboots and airplane mode, turning data on/off does not help.

Me too.

And funny that the person who responded to my ticket was unaware and very defensive.

Also I had to state the issue 3 times in the ticket. Then first question from the agent is " what is the issue" lol
