A nationwide cell service outage Thursday morning is limited to AT&T customers, according to the carrier’s competitors.

Customers began reporting the outage to Downdetector.com — a website that tracks service outages — around 3:30 a.m., but reports began to spike around 4:30 a.m. Law enforcement and firefighters from all over the country have said people are having trouble contacting 911 because of the outages.
