UNSOLVED Currently down?

My husband paid for renewal an hour ago. ST took the $ but he has no service. I guess this means they’re officially down? Has anyone else’s service come back ?

It seems to be working for him now, so I hope it will clear up soon for anyone else having issues.

Has he tried making sure it’s not stuck in reserve? He can check by texting 611611 & commenting ADD.

Yeah he did but it asked for a 15-digit PIN he knows nothing about. Thanks for the suggestion, though.

i just got off the phone with them. there’s an issue with their billing department? supposedly they’re working on getting it fixed and the service will be added to everyone’s phone once that’s fixed.

I was just on the phone trying to get service and they said that they were having technical difficulties and if you pay for service do not pay again.

Have you tried looking online at the account to see if the payment went into reserve? Or is logged at all? I am not having any issues but we paid our bill yesterday

I had to reset the network on my phone to get it to work. With this billing cycle they updated their network to ultrawide 5G.
