It must have been geographically determined. In my area Verizon and T mobile were fine. The problems came from AT & T users attempting to communicate with other carriers and vice-versa.

Sounds like the government. Whenever our IT systems in the Air Force were updated, there were ALWAYS problems that they had to go back and fix.

Who believes this lie? No seriously, who. I need your names and bank draft numbers so I can sell you the Brooklyn Bridge. Cheap REALLY cheap!

No, but what else is AT&T going to say? The truth? Right, any evidence they might have has already disappeared.

But it sounded so much more alarming when it was a solar flair or espionage

And, some of them resell AT&T minutes.
And, AT&T owns discount sellers like Cricket.

I guess you would have to have network analyzer to figure out which network you were really talking through...
