Updates for AT&T Customers Impacted by Hurricane Matthew
Overall, our network performed well during Hurricane Matthew. In Florida, Virginia and Georgia wireless service has been restored to nearly all affected areas. Some customers may be experiencing issues with their wireline and wireless services in coastal areas due to flooding in NC and SC. AT&T technicians were prepared for storm-related issues and are working to restore service to affected areas as quickly and safely as conditions allow. We are monitoring our network closely and will continue to coordinate with emergency management officials and local utility companies.
