TELEPHONE BLACKOUT IN SE ALABAMA - Fiberoptic lines cut! Phones are down to an extent.


UPDATE: THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN RESOLVED!

We have been reported that a fiber optic line has been cut in Dothan,Al . This has caused a phone blackout
for several towns.

This issue is causing phone users not to be able to dial 0 for operator or even call any toll free numbers and mostly limited to calling in their local calling area to some restrictions. Some reported that some callers can not even reach 911.  This has also effected some cell phone users such as verizon users depending on what part of the county you are in.


If you do need to reach 911 and can not you can call 334-774-5111 if you live in dale county. If you live outside Dale County and need to reach 911 you will need to find and call your local non emergency number and can get help.

This issue was scheduled to be fixed this morning and the phone company has ran in issues that is taking longer than expected. They hope to have this fixed ASAP.

Please just keep trying and hope fully they will have this issue fixed soon.
