No service in Dallas

Hello I'm in Dallas Texas and anyone that I know who has a Cingular Cell number can not be called... is this only going on here??? they can make out going calls however no one can call them we get a mesage say that the number is not in service..

this started about 45 min ago CST (4:30 CST)


if you call a cingualr cell number from a Nextel phone it say the nextel number can not be reached. if you call a cingualr number from a sprint phone you get a the sprint number can not be reached. its like all the Cingular numbers are not assiaged to anyone.....

usually such problems can be solved by powercycling the phone so it registers on the network. maybe it is as simple as that. but i am sure the tech division in cingular can help u.

I am in Houston and can make outgoing calls but can not receive incomming calls. I tried calling it from my landline and I get a recording saying my number has been disconected. Also the GPRS indicator is gone.

EDIT: Well, it appears I can't make outgoing calls now either.

I called 1-866-CINGULAR and it says there is a network outage. I am on hold right now and am going to check and see if they know when this will be fixed.

I called customer service on my landline and they said it is a state wide outage and should be fixed in 1-2 hours.

I'm in North Texas.

Calls to my mom's phone (TDMA): goes straight to voicemail (she may have it turned off)

Calls to my phone (ATT GSM): Number has been disconnected message.

Calles to my sisters's phone (Cingular GSM): busy signal


When Cingular screws things up, they screw them up royally.

I'm currently in Houston, Tx. My cell phone number is with AT&T Wireless, but my phone is registered on the Cingular Wireless network (Orange side). Calls to and from my phone work fine.
