One wonders how millions of Canadian managed without the use of their Rogers, Fido and Chartr mobile phone services Wednesday night. Younger Canadians seemed to be addicted to their phones, and people are increasingly cancelling their home landlines and depending on cell phones instead.
Service was restored late Wednesday night and the chief executive of Rogers Communications apologized to customers. Rogers and Fido postpaid wireless customers, those on a contract and who pay monthly will get a credit on their bills for one day of service.
No reason was given for the major outage.
