Verizon Wireless: I called a phone in NJ this morning, got a strange message:
"Welcome to Verizon Wireless. Long Distance or International Dialing is
not included with your service. To inquire about Long Distance or
International Dialing, hang up and dial *611 from your wireless phone.
Announcement 7 Location 117137"
I called Verizon Wireless support and they are saying that due to some
upgrades relating to LTE Advanced/Enhanced, since 9pm last night customers
in those areas may not be able to make calls, and calls on Verizon Wireless
TO these areas will get this misleading message.
I was able to make calls to other non-local numbers without issue.
Has anyone heard more about this? Can't find much on the web about it.
The outage map shows a lot of complaints in and through the east coast
corridor between DC and NYC, even toward Boston.
