911 Outages
AT&T Mobility paid a $5.25 million fine to settle a Federal Communications Commission investigation into two nationwide 911 outages that occurred in 2017. The first outage, on March 8, lasted approximately five hours and affected 12,600 calls on the company’s Voice over Long Term Evolution (VoLTE) network. The second outage, on May 1, lasted 47 minutes and resulted in 2,600 failed 911 calls. The FCC found that, during the March outage, AT&T failed to quickly, clearly, and fully notify all affected 911 call centers.
